Catwoman (2004)
Viewable solely for Halle Berry's slinky outfit
One of the most annoying aspects of any movie featuring 'the girl' who mindlessly goes from bad situations to worse, is the utter ridiculousness and total unbelievability that anyone is stupid enough to climb out onto a window mounted air conditioner, then upon rescue, be concerned only that she's late for an appointment (as opposed to the fact that she'd just done the stupidest thing in the world and it should of by all rights, killed her and the cat she was so desperately trying to rescue). The Writer's or Director's focus on the idiocy of the lead character, is only surpassed by the idiocy of the fact that the audience is supposed to believe the girl is smart enough to save anyone from anything. I would rather watch and listen to fingernails scraping across window glass, than watch this movie again, although editing out everything but the snips of Halle's outfit, does give me some comfort.
Star Trek: Voyager: Relativity (1999)
Plot allow time guardians to allow future technology into past future
The Doctor's mobile emitter, a result of obtaining future technology, a crashed time ship is overlooked at episodes ending. Time guardian (Cptn Braxton) makes no effort to assure the time-line is cleaned up. In other words, his century's technology. The mobile holo-emitter is allowed to be kept by Voyager's crew. Thus the result of technology obtained from some 400 years ahead of Voyager's technology) would surely violate the time guardians prime directives. Gross script error. But did lend a key aspects to broadening the Doctor's character. Regardless that the screenplay was somewhat corny and futile attempts at writing in some of the character's humorous and/or witisome line's, time travel will always be an interesting theme.
Tribeca: Honor (1993)
Why doesn't IMDb accept quotes for an unidentified star?
Why was the star of this 1993 TV serial (Tribeca), it's 2nd episode ("Honor") omitted from this airing's IMDb database web page? Instead, the star character, identified (only in the movie) as "Lou", was overlooked in the IMDb post, yet oddly it refers to a "Lou" (the episode's combination cameo bit scene narrator). Shameful that this television contribution to the American screen was so poorly posted not only by omitting the star character, omitted apropos keywords, and additionally IMDb members are disallowed from adding quotes for this unidentified starring actor (i.e.; "Citizen, what do you know about entitlements. You don't know anything, do you?"). "Honor" was a bit dishonored and virtually assured another less than honorable burial 'at see', this time by IMDb.
Dark Justice: The Specialist (1992)
Erin Gray made this episode
Best 42 yr old I've had the pleasure of seeing before her charms begin to fade. Her fireside strip tease will always be remembered. You might catch this episode's re-run on the web at video.aol.com's Dark Justice link as seen 4-2-07 (video on demand channel, no membership or log-on needed). Plot twists the usual kleptomaniac cat burglar (Erin) who uses her sexual therapy to capitalize upon her rich clientèle's art works. Script pretty ho-hum. Few tired clichés. However the cinematography and cameras lenses definitely made up for this budget minded series. Am certain the Director enjoyed this shoot. Cast and crew as well. Erin's sexuality here makes up for all her 'not all that and a bag of chips' as seen in Buck Roger in the 25th Century (but still I enjoyed her presence, just not as much as in this episode).
