On Wednesdays, we preview all of the upcoming new wide and limited releases hitting the theaters the coming weekend. On Fridays, we’ll now tell you what you should see. We pose two questions each week to our contributors and their responses are posted below.

1. Which of the two new wide releases would you choose to recommend above the others?
I’m only recommending The Green Hornet because I find the premise and trailer of The Dilemma completely unwatchable and because I think I’m going to be dragged to it this weekend.
2. Which of the seven new limited releases would you choose to recommend above the others?
I’m really not that interested in any of this week’s productions, but if I had to choose, Barney’s Version has awards behind it, so there you go.

1. Which of the two new wide releases would you choose to recommend above the others?
If I had absolutely nothing else to do, and had seen all the major releases already in theaters, then, and only then, would I go to see The Green Hornet.
2. Which of the seven new limited releases would you choose to recommend above the others?
Barney’s Version because it looks marginally more interesting than the week’s other limited releases.

1. Which of the two new wide releases would you choose to recommend above the others?
The Green Hornet looks pretty unwatchable, so I would lean towards the new Ron Howard film (or catch up on a December release you haven’t seen yet).
2. Which of the seven new limited releases would you choose to recommend above the others?
Barney’s Version has a lot of good word-of-mouth, but all the films have their supporters and would probably be worth an evening out.
