Bring It On: All or Nothing: Better than Bring It On Again, not as good as Bring It On. Fluffy fun, perfect for a Friday night.
Junebug: This was pretty unmemorable, although Amy Adams was a joy to watch. There seem to be an awful lot of movies out there, though, about someone (usually a woman) going to meet her partner's family, and all the problems that arise. I think I'm bored with that particular storyline.
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang: This was awesome. Fabulous! I totally loved it. You should all watch it.
The Libertine: I have to admit, even the presence of Johnny Depp as a debauched fop in the era of Charles II was not enough to hold my attention. I've heard a lot of terrible press about this (although granted much of that was for the TIFF cut, which is not what was released theatrically), but for my money it was mostly just kind of boring. Maybe it needs to be experienced in the company of other Depp fans. :)
The Polar Express: I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO BORED. Which I think I might have mentioned.
Scrubs season 1: Heeeee. So much fun.
Stick It: Okay, I totally loved this. I mean, rebel skater girl being forced back into gymnastics? Complete with training montages and her skater boy friends? How could I not?
Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull Story: I didn't like this as much as I expected to. Now, given that I expected to totally adore it, that still left lots of room for me to enjoy it, but although some parts were brilliantly funny, other parts definitely dragged.
Where the Truth Lies: This felt completely different than any other Egoyan film I've seen. It was an interesting watch, but somehow didn't completely fit together, partially because the switch between time periods wasn't well telegraphed. The woman all looked kind of the same, which was part of the problem, and Alison Lohman wasn't very good. But Kevin Bacon and Colin Firth were great.
The Wire season 3: If you ever pay attention to any one thing I say, please make it be GO WATCH THE WIRE RIGHT NOW. Although I would totally recommend watching season 1 first - even though each season is a self-contained case, many of the characters return, and everything is that much sweeter if you know the back story. Anyway, The Wire is the best teevee I have ever watched.
