W. - Oliver Stone's biopic of George W. Bush. Perfectly adequate film, though lacking the depth of Stone's earlier presidential effort, Nixon. Didn't tell me anything much I didn't already know and Stone largely avoids any controversial speculation (see JFK), but it does add entertaining colour to the story - 3/5
Ordinary Decent Criminal - crime comedy loosely based on the story of notorious Dublin criminal Martin Cahill, here renamed Michael Lynch and played, randomly, by Kevin Spacey. Watchable enough, but your life won't be any poorer if you never see it. The random casting extends to Lynch's wife and sister-in-law, played by Linda Fiorentino and Helen Baxendale - 3/5
Flight Of The Conchords: What Goes On Tour - 3/5
Star Trek: The Next Generation: Chain of Command, Part 1 - I want my own metagenic weapon - 4/5
Prison Break: Greatness Acheived - surely Gretchen's just biding her time? Also, I'm not convinced that that little concrete block could sink the black guy - 4/5
Paul Merton In India: Episode 5 - 3/5
Heroes: Eris Quod Sum - Robert Forster and Kristen Bell are just class. Good to see Peter stripped of his powers too. Having too many people who can do *anything* is just crap - 4/5
