Vigilantes run amok this week as Jeff and Lisa take on The Brave One, which owes quite a lot to Charles Bronson and Death Wish. Strong performances by Jodie Foster and Terrence Howard prevail, but does the screenplay and story hold up? On the other hand there's Death Wish, which just might be a better movie than you remember it. Also Jeff continues on his X-Files mission, Lisa gets caught up in Holly Hunter's new TV series Saving Grace, Jeff thinks that Emmys in the round is a lame idea and Lisa can't get enough of Monk and Extras. All this, plus what's up with trailers giving away so much?

Let me explain. No, there is too much. Let me sum up. Lisa was able to get to the movies this week with baby to catch Stardust. Does this balance of fairy tale, fantasy and comedy hold its own against Rob Reiner's The Princess Bride? Also this week Jeff recommends the excellent 80s arcade game documentary The King Of Kong: A Fistful Of Quarters. In addition Jeff takes in the romantic comedy Love Actually, while Lisa gives her take on Roger Dodger.
