Stoked – The Rise and Fall of Gator: All things being equal this was a very standard documentary. Things aren’t equal of course and since I rode this guy’s board once (didn’t everyone?) I thought this was outstanding. With his story and the fact that they threw so much insane footage and an even more insane cast of interviewees, this was a can’t miss proposition for me…

Five Easy Pieces: Now I understand why I couldn’t remember anything that happened in this movie… There’s not a lot beyond Nicholson’s performance to walk away with. Don’t get me wrong, walking away with just that is significant and the movie, while you’re in it, is fascinating. It’s just that it’s such a vehicle for the “performance” it feels like very little else…

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2-Disc Widescreen Edition): Still cool on the second go-round. Just a few short months until Book Six!
