That's it for this guide. Now, some movie quickie reviews:

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (****)

Fun to watch, hard to follow at points, laughable lines, but, a semi-decent way to go out with a bang

Batman Begins (*****) Grey Fox's Best Of Summer 2005 Award

Christian Bale must be Batman from now on. Follows some true points to Bruce's origins. Good villains, nice acting, return of the dark atmosphere and feel that the first two brought.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (****1/2)

Johnny Depp must get an Oscar for his role. Good actor for Charlie, laughed through the whole movie, follows book decently (but its a movie, so, who cares if its not all accurate. Oh wwait, nerds do, I forgot).

Detailed reviews of Wedding Crashers and Four Brothers coming soon.
