Sex and Death 101

Regardless of how it is presented, the classic argument of fate versus free will will always have adherents. Some sway from one side to the other, some will never switch and some don’t much care. You can tart it up with some lipstick and call it destiny, but fate always looms large over how people view what is happening to them and their society. But that pesky free will will constantly seek to undermine any belief in the credibility that events are ordained and there is nothing to be done to change them. Which side do you figure is the proper one? Well, Roderick Blank (Simon Baker) is square on the side of fate. He gets a list of the women he’ll bed during his lifetime and spends his time figuring out how to meet them. But the last one is a serial killer known as ‘Death Nell’ (Winona Ryder). Maybe it’s time to take another look at free will.

Saving Silverman

Lifelong buds. You’ve known them since grade school. You’ve shared the joys, triumphs and disappointments throughout the trials and tribulations of growing up. You’re on your own now but you can’t imagine them not being a part of your life. You know they’ll do anything to help you regardless of the consequences to themselves. But when it comes to women… well, testosterone will always trump synapses. Just ask Darren Silverman (Jason Biggs), J.D. (Jack Black), and Wayne (Steve Zahn) who have been friends since birth practically. Darren is set up with Judith (Amanda Peet) who may be the girl of his dreams. In meeting J.D. and Wayne, She gets caught on the wrong end of a beer spray, tumbles backwards out of their broken recliner and is the victim of stray salsa attack. Now Judith insists that Darren is to never see his friends again. Being lads of stealth and cunning, J.D. and Wayne take it upon themselves to kidnap Judith, locking her in their basement. Now what? They haven’t thought that far and Judith isn’t about to crumple girlishly.

Something's Gotta Give

May-December romances have a lot to recommend them. It is often the simplicity of the relationship that makes it attractive. No complications, fun and amazing delights. But it does have its drawbacks. When Marin Barry (Amanda Peet) and Harry Langer (Jack Nicholson) decide to adjourn to the bedroom with Marvin Gaye booming on the stereo, he is about to pleasure her when his ticker misses a beat. Such events are so embarrassing…

S.F.W.

Cliff Spab (Stephen Dorff) realizes the cult of celebrity isn’t quite what he thought it to be after he becomes a national figure when he is the chattiest a bunch of people, including his girl Wendy (Reese Witherspoon), who are held hostage by gun-toting terrorists in a corner store. The result of what happened as he moves from public appearance event to event seems even more bizarre than what went on while he and the others were held captive.

The Sentinel

How do you convince the powers that be that you didn’t do something? All of the clues lead Secret Service investigator David Breckinridge (Kiefer Sutherland) to conclude that his colleague Peter Garrison (Michael Douglas) is a traitor involved in a plot to assassinate POTUS (David Rasche). Pete happens to be in a coffee shop that is a drop for a drug cartel, he has a bank account that has dubious deposits, he has failed a polygraph, he finds himself as bait for an informant who has breached Secret Service security, he’s shifty and evasive in answering questions and it is obvious that he is hiding something. The investigators want to know what it is when they burst into Pete’s home. Unfortunately for him, his secret has nothing to do with any plot against the government but could bring about its collapse.
