A Dangerous Method

What is this, really? A repudiation of psychoanalysis or a more subtle mirror to its art?

Doctor Who: Season 12

Tom Baker has not hit his stride yet in this, his first season, but he's by far funnier than the prior Doctors.

The Five-Year Engagement

In the Apatow sub-genre, this one lands towards the bottom: some brilliant scenes, some abysmal (or just boring) ones.

Numb3rs: Season 5

The math remains the only decent thing about this show, but that alone makes it like crack to watch.

The Cabin in the Woods

I wouldn't say you don't see it coming, but at least you get a bellyful of laughs along the way.

Meek's Cutoff

A triumph of sound engineering: details a woman's life in old America, putting the listener in her shoes while the men discuss everything important.

THX 1138

The only time I'm going to agree with Lucas re-technologizing his past film: result is a far more evil dystopian future.

Star Trek: Insurrection

Blech. Explain again why the entire UNIVERSE isn't going to want what the Ba'ku have?

The Names of Love

A film that proves we truly are in the enlightened 21st century. (And it's thought-provoking and hysterical to boot.)

Answer This!

Feels vaguely peeping-tom-like to watch this flick. (Plus, it fails pretty badly in the plotting department.)
