So intriguing that I now want to read the book. Hubby says different enough that it will be another form of intriguing.

Parker
At times like this, a direct quote is best: "You ain't ever gonna get an Academy Award for doing Crank and you certainly won't for doing all the other movies I've done."

Lark Rise to Candleford: Season 2
The problem with watching one episode after another after another after... is that you get really sick of the especially weird characters (looking at you, Thomas Brown).

Star Trek Into Darkness
I applaud the return of the franchise to Star Trek's core values (honor, trust, heart) but why a nearly word-for-word re-do (with one switcheroo) of the all-important scene from Wrath of Khan?

Django Unchained
Only Tarantino could marry The Ring Cycle with black westerns, and add the panache of a liberal dose of humor to it all.
