Spanish thiller that has turned into a cult movie.  It isn't bad, but it's a Spanish movie, so... yeah, you can find something better.

There's still plenty of substance at this point in the series, but you can see the seams starting to come loose.

This was way, WAY better than I had expected, not least of which because everything that was wrong with WTC was made right in this one.  Sure, you know how it's going to end, but the direction is phenomenal.

Sometimes real life isn't that interesting, even if you have sex and murder and a private detective.  However, unlike the fact that Clark Kent was obviously Superman, you won't believe that's really Ben Affleck playing George Reeves.  Good job, Ben, second only to you snagging Jennifer Garner.

More of the same, only the producers are running out of blood and becoming less coherent.  It's hard to run a good premise into the ground, but they did.  Saw = not sharp enough.

 It's a post facto pseudo documentary about what might (have) happen(ed) if the president had been assassinated October of this year, but it isn't smart enough to even have been written by him.  There's nothing original about the filmmaking here, and it isn't upbeat enough to double as a fantasy for, what?, more than 65% of the country at this point.

Maybe you aren't me and you don't have enough drama in your life.  If that's the case, rent it.  It would have been great with a soundtrack to underscore the emotion, but instead I'm just left sort of bored and depressed and thinking about people in my life with their own problems between the scenes where Maggie Gyllenhaal gets naked.

New season, so they revamped.  It's a little too fast a change for the plots to be as tight as Jennifer Garner's abs in most of these, and the story arcs are formulatic even if the plot twists themselves aren't, but it's a good mix most of the time that happens to be explosive under the right conditions, so handle it carefully and detonate it when I give you the signal.

The Laura Palmer storyline at the core of the show comes to a close here, and it's all about winding down from this point forward.  I'm just enjoying the familiar scenery from the last couple trips I took down this road.

The story here just didn't go anywhere interesting enough outside of one twist.  That doesn't make for much of a dance.

Great parable and really inventive movie.  It's far from perfect, but it's one of the most inventive comedies you've ever seen.  (Assuming you'll rent it, which is what I'm hoping.)

I'm not sure I can review this objectively since I swear I grew up with this guy.  He bought us all beer with his lotto winnings, but they were nowhere near $100,000.   Funny show though even where things aren't the way I remember them.

An episode of NOVA.  Not about disaster footage so much as examining the causes of the disaster that gave the world so much disaster footage to put on other shows.

The story has a bit of fun with the conventions and cliches of fairy tales, but then it gets completely lost without breadcrumbs about halfway through and leads you to a disappointing, incoherent ending.  Don't bother with it unless you're a Sarah Polley fan.

Just in case you haven't listened to Dark Side of the Moon about a million times, here it is (plus encores like Comfy Numb, etc.) and tons of bonus footage from the big screens and behind the scenes.

This movie has a cult behind it that I'll probably never be a member of.  It begins as an almost slapstick comedy, then morphs into a depressing drama about halfway through.  I'm not sure what the other seven configurations are.
