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?
There’s no option for me. The Way Back is the only way to go.
2. Which of the three new limited releases would you choose to recommend above the others?
I think The Company Men looks like the best bet.

1. Which of the two new wide releases would you choose to recommend above the others?
The Way Back looks interesting, but also kind of dire, better absorbed in small quantities on DVD, but if you’re looking for something new that’s halfway decent, this would be my pick.
2. Which of the three new limited releases would you choose to recommend above the others?
The Company Men is a film about the current economic mess, so it’s got timeliness and relevance, plus an A-list cast. I’d go for this one.

1. Which of the two new wide releases would you choose to recommend above the others?
The Way Back looks to be the much better movie, but if romantic comedies are your thing, by all means check out No Strings Attached.
2. Which of the three new limited releases would you choose to recommend above the others?
The Company Men is what I would go see, but the two Asian films have their fans too.
