Updated with Daddy Day Care. Its attempt at humor mostly comes from tired jokes and recycled situations on role reversal. Some coming from the kid actors still work but Eddie Murphy barely delivers the laughs himself. For the most part though, this laffer does not get a passing grade.

Added two upcoming flicks, one a bit better than I expected ( School of Rock) and one a bit less than I expected ( Kill Bill: Volume 1.)
Either way, both movies earn     out of 5 on my scale.

Still, a strong rating for Kill Bill. Glad it turned out solid.

I finally saw some of the 2003 movies I'd been wanting to see for a while. My list now has (in order of how much I liked them): Finding Nemo, X2, Identity, and Dreamcatcher.
In non-2003 movies, I recently saw Abre Los Ojos, The Frighteners, and Walking on Water, all for the first time.

Shanghai Knights
3.5 of 10
Except for Chan's stunts this film is mostly just dull.
A Mighty Wind
7.5 of 10
The weakest of Guest's films but the music is very good and these actors still know how to have fun with their characters, especially Fred Willard
I also caught Narc 8.5 of 10 which was officially a 2002 Oscar release, but played in JAN/FEB for most of us. Great acting by the two leads. A powerful police procedural film with an interesting angle on the characters.

Updated with Sophia Coppola's Lost In Translation - an easily recognizable sophomore effort.

A Mighty Wind - Not a lot going on plotwise; even for a "let's get the band back together" pic its pretty slim. But its mostly funny and enjoyable to see the actors having such a good time with their characters. B
