Spin City: Internal Affairs (1999)
The funniest episode thus far
Watching Spin City was always a lot of fun. With that said, there were some episodes that made you laugh harder than others. Internal Affairs made me laugh the hardest of any episode thus far. Nikki and Mike are finally getting together. The trick is they are trying to hide it. They go to great lengths to do so. The culmination of this is hilarity.
Most of the jokes in this episode are delivered with perfection. The sexual tension (and jokes involving this fact) were fantastic. This is comedy at its finest and I would recommend this episode above all others to this point. Some character understanding may be necessary to truly appreciate the episode but this is a great show and this is a great episode.
Superman Returns (2006)
Very long but interesting ...
Superman has definitely returned in this epic 2 1/2 hour movie. However, with that said ... it could have been better.
I won't go into the plot as not to spoil anything for anyone but I will say that the main drag points included the first half of the movie, where the dialog dragged on and there was only a tiny bit of action. Here is where I think most people will find themselves bored and wanting to hit the "fast-forward" button when it comes to the DVD.
The second half of the movie was better paced. It may have been a boring film overall for some, but the second half contains the best segments of acting, action, and story. It was a welcome splash in the face that it was not all long and a bore.
By the end, I was surprised as many people "liked" it as they did. I had one say it was "crap," but people must really like their Superman to be willing to see his emotional side. That was something I definitely did not expect.
If you are looking for an action-packed movie, see X3. If you are looking for a movie with heart, soul, some humor, and a good bit of action, this movie is for you.
