John Krasinski doesn’t usually worry about reviews. But for his new film “IF,” he is “genuinely terrified” of the response from two people: His daughters. “IF,” about a young girl (Cailey Fleming) and her neighbor (Ryan Reynolds) who can see everyone’s imaginary friends including those that have gotten left behind, is one of this summer’s major studio releases opening on May 17.
