trying to pry myself away from my TV. luscious, addictive TV...

Man on Wire

James Marsh’s documentary about a Frenchman’s riduculously dangerous and illegal highwire walk between the Twin Towers in 1974 is otherworldly. Go see it now.

Hamlet 2

Tropic Thunder

Pineapple Express

Starring Seth Rogen and James Franco, its a stoner romp and a also a funny send-up on classic action TV series and action films.

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor

If there were ever a completely paint-by-numbers movie, this lame action retread filled with lame jokes in a lame plot would be it.

The X-Files: I Want to Believe

The science vs. faith argument bludgeons the audience and the central mystery has an absurdly silly resolution in this feature-length version of a mediocre TV episode.

Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson

A celebration of a genre-busting writer/rabble-rouser and an elegy for a time period when a freak like Hunter S. Thompson could get access to political leaders and actually affect radical change.

The Dark Knight

Christopher Nolan’s Batman epic may be a little overstuffed, but it’s also a riveting, morally complex tale with a standout villain and thrilling action.
