Dollhouse: The Attic (2009)
If Every episode had been this good........
Or even somewhere close, this show wouldn't be getting down to 3 final episodes.
If there's one thing Joss Whedon can do, it's conclude a series. While the formula is there for all his series, its disguised well enough that you don't see it coming until it smacks you in the face.
Here comes the spoiler: The main characters face what suddenly seems like insurmountable odds, there might be a turncoat in their midst, who ends up not being a turncoat after all, and a villain turns ally.
He still does it very well, and for the first time, I'm actually sad that this series is going away. I watched it sporadically until the last couple of weeks, but they've caught a good wind, and it's too bad the series is going gone.
The Hollow (2004)
Scary? No. Accidentally Funny? Yes
First off, any movie that has Judge Reinhold as a main character should be immediately pulled off the shelf. Secondly movies like this really shouldn't try and follow 2 story lines. The Headless Horseman, and a strained father, son dynamic? Why? What's the point? Terrible, Terrible movie. There is some decent eye candy as far as ladies, but they make the least attractive the main character, maybe in this cast Kaley Cuocco passed as the only one who could act? Stacey Keach as the drunken grave keeper was pretty funny, what with his tossing "ye" in there every once in a while. All in all, it seems like more and more horror movies have you rooting for the characters to die, instead of rooting for them to escape. Someone needs to realize that having characters that are as annoying as nails on a chalkboard doesn't make for a very riveting, tension filled, horror movie
Bowling for Columbine (2002)
One of the best movies I've ever seen
and I'm by no means a fan of documentaries My friend saw this twice because he wanted me to see it so badly. I've rarely seen such a powerful movie. Several of the scenes of death and destruction brought a tear to
my eye. And I am by no means a person who cries at the drop of a
hat. I plan to buy this movie when it comes out on video
Something's Gotta Give (2003)
Misleading promos
I thought this was going to be a fun little romantic comedy, with Jack Nicholson romping all over the screen, instead this was a sappy, women's empowerment(until the end) movie with a little mother daughter movie mixed in. I don't think I've ever seen a 2 hour movie with less character development or plot development, which by the way was painfully dull after the first half hour. Dianne Keaton was about as grating a main character as I've ever seen. Her crying scene made me want to rip my own ears off. Keanu Reeves was dry, and lifeless. I wonder if he was as bored as he looked doing this after finishing all the high action moves in the Matrix flicks. There were several plot points that were just ridiculous, and pointless, one of my main problems with this movie, was near the end when Jack shows up at Amanda's door with a full beard, in the next scene he's shaved it off, now, I understand the beard was to show that time has passed but they flashed the "6 months later" up on the screen, so the beard was pointless, I kept wondering why his travelings had made him forget how to shave. It seems like a small thing, but to me it showed how little the director understood the handling of the movie, it dragged on and on, with no end in sight. In short I hated it. And please don't try and pretend just because I didn't like it, I didn't "get it" this movie was just not good. And it gets worse the longer I reflect on all it's flaws

Serving Sara (2002)
as good as gold
who's the funniest man in Hollywood? That's right Mathew Perry! this movie had everything I was looking for, and more. Plenty of Elizabeth Hurley looking as sexy as ever, and some witty banter between Perry and Cedric the entertainer.
A great movie, one of the best ever
