Cinecast #2 - Mo Money, Mo Problems
In our second podcast, Sam and I review Danny Boyle's sentimental new film "Millions" (opens in Chicago 3/18), about two precocious British lads who learn that money can't buy happiness after a bag full of cash falls from the sky and lands at their feet. The film features a standout performance from its young star Alex Etel, but crumbles in the last 20 minutes under the weight of its trite message. Plus, Sam lies to an Oscar winning screenwriter and we count down our lists of the top 5 movies we're embarrassed to admit we've never seen.

Six Feet Under is at least worth trying. It's not shocking, but I feel like it doesn't particularly care if it IS shocking because it expects the audience to just grow up and deal. There've been times when I thought that maybe I should send my younger brother out of the room, but I decided that he won't be an adult unless he's treated like one.
And as a sidenote: I've never seen American Beauty ;) So I can't say whether or not there's anything in common.
