Saving Silverman (2001

Should you see this movie?
This was the second time I saw this movie, and I liked it a ton better the second time.

Girl With The Pearl Earring (2003)
Who’s in it
Scarlett Johansson, Colin Firth, Tom Wilkinson, Cillian Murphy
Should you see this movie?
This one is pretty interesting, but not one I would probably watch again. It got some media attention even though it was a low budget film, because of the story. Johansson’s breakout role as a peasant woman who works in home of a well to do woman and her artist husband. For one of his final paintings he choses

16 Blocks (2006)
Who’s in it
Bruce Willis, Mos Def, David Morse
Should you see this movie?
It was good, much better than what I expected and different than expected. Bruce Willis is aolid in yet another diverse role for him, an aging degenerate drunk cop, who no one seems to respect, makes a decision to help protect a noisy guy who his fellow police officers seem to be really concerned about taking in. Turns out this guy knows more than he

A Lot Like Love (2005)
Who’s in it
Ashton Kutcher, Amanda Peet, Taryn Manning, Ali Larter, Kathryn Hahn
What was good
The casual acting by Kutcher and Peet. It feels real, and these are possibly a realistic series of encounters between two people who get caught up in what they think they need more than what they feel.
What sucked
You don’t for one point in time believe Kutcher is what he portrays in the movie, which kind of ruins things because alot of his …
Sparticus – TV (2004)
Who’s in it
Goran Visnjic, Rhona Mitra
What was good
I liked the idea of a remake, I loved the original and that says something since I hate most old movies. I liked that Sparticus in this movie acted more like a people’s ruler than a ruler among slaves, it seemed more realistic. I like most of the characters too, then seemed more believable in some ways then the main characters in the first movie. I think the battles were

The Upside of Anger (2005
Who’s in it
Kevin Costner, Joan Allen, Erika Christensen, Keri Russell, Alicia Witt, Evan Rachel Wood
What was good
Kevin Costner as the aging drunk ex-baseball player (don’t worry, they don’t dwell on this over common casting) and Joan Allen as the neurotic mother who one day wakes up and her husband is gone. She assumes that he has run off to Sweden with his secretary and she is broken. I have always thought
