Quiz Show
: :This vigorously entertaining film, sharply directed by Robert Redford from Paul Attanasio's brilliant screenplay, is based on the game-show scandals of the 1950s, when TV quiz shows were rigged to attract higher ratings and lucrative sponsorships. The fact-based story focuses on the quiz show Twenty-One and popular contestant Charles Van Doren (Ralph Fiennes), a charming, well-bred intellectual who agreed to win the game by using answers supplied by the show's producers. This unfair advantage turned Van Doren into a prototypical media darling at the expense of reigning Twenty-One champion Herbie Stempel ...

Highlander II: The Quickening (Renegade Version - Director's Cut)
: :Theatrically released in 1991 as Highlander II: The Quickening, this sequel was later reedited and gained a small but loyal following (prompting a spinoff TV series), but at the time of its release critic Roger Ebert called it 'the most hilariously incomprehensible movie ... almost awesome in its badness.' In other words, you might find some guilty pleasure in this chaotic sequel to 1986's Highlander, in which Christopher Lambert reprises his role as Connor MacLeod, a member of the alien race known as 'Immortals,' banished to Earth from his home planet ...

Saturday Night Live - The Best of Eddie Murphy
: :Perhaps one of the greatest lights ever to shine on late-night television, Eddie Murphy has gone on to well-deserved international superstardom. Check out his earliest television work on Saturday Night Live: The Best of Eddie Murphy, a collection of his greatest roles, from Gumby to Stevie Wonder to Buckwheat. Of course, some would argue that his best role was as himself, and there is plenty of evidence for that--many of the skits feature Murphy au naturel and the opening sequence is taken from his monologue when he returned to the show ...

Rich Man's Wife
: :One of Halle Berry's first star vehicles, The Rich Man's Wife has a quirky, unearned twist for an ending, but everything else is pretty obvious. So obvious, it's possible to review it like this: See Halle. Halle is a wife. See Halle's husband. The husband is mean. See the barfly. Halle tells the barfly how she feels. The barfly is not well. The barfly kills Halle's husband. The barfly tricks Halle. Extort. Extort. Extort. Halle has to run. Halle has to fight. Halle has to carry this movie. Act, Halle! Act! ...
