D.E.B.S - basically a parody of Charlie's Angels, funnier than we thought it would be, and worth catching on cable
The Producers (2005) - pretty good, Broderick is obviously channeling Gene Wilder (only not quite as good), and I can visualize what this probably looked like on stage. Uma is a hoot.
Nanny MacPhee - the kids were really quite rotten, so I'm not so sure I'd show this to Z again even though he requested it. It was interesting how very beautiful Emma Thompson looked after seeing her in the ugly makeup. Colin Firth is aging fairly well, but I'll always vote for P&P as his ultimate charisma role.
MirrorMask - simple story but visually stunning and quite magical; we're considering buying.
Just Like Heaven - cute, fairly predictable, but better than many of the rom-coms coming out these days.
Last Holiday - Queen Latifah does a good job here even though the supporting actors are caricatures, but it's an airy confection that won't stand up to too much scrutiny. Vaguely a rom-com, but there's not much rom.
Walk the Line - very good, powerful performances, and reminded me that I've always liked Johnny Cash's music.
The Second Coming - Christopher Eccleston before he was Doctor #9; the story is powerful and very well done, if a bit creepy.
40 Year-Old Virgin - funnier than we thought it would be, and worth watching. Good acting.
Legend of Zorro - not nearly as much fun as Mask of Zorro, but Antonio and Catherine are still muy sexy.
