abstain, thought Below was boring and poorly executed. I wouldn't think it possible to make an uninteresting submarine movie, but there you go.
Rodger Dodger (very funny exposure of male fantasy, though the end is a bit shakey. Liked Secretary too.)
Yes, Captain Hammer's here, hair blowing in the breeze. The day needs my saving expertise! - Captain Hammer, Corporate Tool

Below - Neither film was top notch, but I'll give this title the nod on the basis of some subtlety and the effective performance of Olivia Williams.
- Walter.

Equilibrium (Not great by any measure, but Below was painful to watch)

Equilibrium - Both of these films are terribly derivative, but Equilibrium is more entertaining. Bale was also very good - it's easy to see why he's the new Batman.
Secretary - I'm lukewarm on both of these; that full frontal shot of Maggie gives Secretary the edge. Yeah, I know, that's a sexist evaluation... :b

Below - Thought it wasn't too bad, but I really disliked Equilibrium.
Roger Dodger - Big fan of this film. Campbell Scott was extrememly funny. Secretary is merely 'meh, forgettable' to me.
