Heroes Season 3

*****

 When pretty much anyone can time travel or resurrect themselves, where is the drama and the tension? After a brilliant first season and a patchy second one, this poor third one feels like the last gasps of writers who are out of ideas.

Weeds, Season 4 Finale

*****

This was a much better way to end than the OTT Series 3. Lovely twist. Getting very dark. Doug needed to keep the humour

Disturbia

*****

I hate movies that I could have written better, Young Indy does Rear Window, badly. Hottie not hot enough. Avoid.

Butterfly on a Wheel

*****

A completely by-the-numbers thriller which leaves you not guessing at all. How many "psycho kidnaps someone and forces people to do things to save them" movies can be made? Awful rubbish which wastes the talent of good actors. I won't waste too much...

Comfortable divey bar out by the ocean in San Francisco. Great fireplace, beautiful bartenders, friendly regulars, and they often have free live music.
