I remember when I felt turned inside out at the prospect of telling my parents something I thought to be so serious that I didn’t know how to approach them. While I dithered trying to figure out an approach, little did I know they would take it with grace and helped me to figure out a solution. My life didn’t come to an end. Wilhelmina (Michelle Krusiec) is in such a pickle. She has a sparkling new romance with Vivian Shing (Lynn Chen), a ballet dancer and her boss’s daughter. In a neighbourhood not known for its gay leanings, she know she has to tell Ma (Joan Chen). Unfortunately for Wil, her situation pales in comparison to Ma who has gone and gotten knocked up and Grandpa (Jin Wang) and Grandma (Guang Lan Koh) are none to pleased, having booted her out on the street.

Is it possible to believe someone who you think has betrayed you? Maybe, but you’ll need more proof. Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) believes that Pamela Landy (Joan Allen) ordered Marie’s (Franka Potente) death in Goa. He targets her with a rifle from a nearby roof, and calls her to ask why people are after him again. She isn’t aware that he is so close by and tells him that it is because he killed two people in Berlin. He tells her that she should be more careful and looks tired. Her shock is palpable.

Christmas is a time of tradition. What we did last year, we do this year. Or at least we do what we remember as being in the spirit of the season and not yucky (which is deep-sixed from memory). Try to stray from it and watch out. The noble season police pop out of woodwork and grind your guilt into a paste that absorbs any thought of changing family traditions. Just ask Luther Krank (Tim Allen) and his wife Nora (Jamie Lee Curtis) who decide to skip Christmas and go on a cruise since their daughter Blair (Julie Gonzalo) is heading off to Peru with the Peace Corps. Telling the neighbours proves to be a bit of a mistake. Vic Frohmeyer (Dan Aykroyd), the neighbourhood’s self-elected Christmas conscience is irate and starts up a group to harass the Kranks for their lack of holiday spirit, causing Luther and Nora to take refuge behind their curtains and sofa.

I’ve had bad days. You’ve had bad days. We’ve all had bad days. Some bad days are worse than others. We cope, we overcome, we endure. We get past the. We try to make the best of whatever circumstances in which we find ourselves. But few of us have the kind of day that Abe Klein (Andrew Lee Potts) is having. It starts when his girlfriend Mimi (Elena Anaya) tells him that she is pregnant, he isn’t ready for this and she is taking the train to visit her mum who’ll care for her. She borrows his phone to make a call but is assaulted by a snatch’n'grab causing Abe’s phone to be switched with that of a button man, Lynch (Gary Oldman). After a call and on a whim, Abe takes one of Lynch’s contracts. He finds himself with a safe full of cash, a baked-on-weed buddy holding the gun and a target who may have a better offer to make but then there is the client who’ll be cranky if the hit fails. Sadly, Lynch, who has fallen in lust with Mimi, has followed Abe home to retrieve his cell phone.

You’re too young. Mom and dad know best. Listen to your parents. You have no idea what you are doing. You’ll have to live with that if you keep it up. Parents are always to willing to offer advice. Even when you thought you didn’t need any. As I grew up, I found that sometimes they were right, sometimes not. Bit I also realized that they didn’t really know what they were talking about, it was just panic chatter. Most of it was guesswork. Some day, Caprice (Selma Blair), aka Ursula Udders, oft naked girl about town, will know that her parents Vaughn (Chris Isaak) and Sylvia Stickles (Tracey Ullman) had only her best interests at heart when they trap and handcuff poor Caprice in a family intervention. But for now, they just want to keep her from throwing her life away. So pharma is their only alternative despite the humping squirrels.
