I enjoyed the audiobook version immensly, and was very excited about seeing the film. Therefore, I visited Best Buy and shelled out $20 with great anticipation. Instead of a treat, I experienced massive disappointment watching it. It is Hollywood at its most ridiculous and garish extreme.
Lexx is ... shall we say, a little different. It's a show where the heros are a dead assassin, a half lizard female sex slave (whose libido went into a severed robot head) and a cowardly captain who's a traitor known throughout the whole galaxy. It's canadian. That must explain it. Lots of Lexx info out there, though, if you look for it.

I am not a movie critic. I am not a professional reviewer. I am not one of those "mai ka laal" types. I am also not the India of my mother's type. I have my mother and father and I just watch movies for time pass.
Ocean's Twelve (trailer) is a sequel, and like most sequels, it isn't as good as the first (Ocean's Eleven.) That's not to say it was a bad movie, though. It was infinitely better than Transporter 2, for example. The cast from the first movie return
Syriana (trailer) is a movie that should be seen by a lot of people but won't be seen by a lot of people. It's not full of car chases or explosions, and the plot is a little slow, but it tells an important story - perhaps several of them.
While this movie wasn't as bad as some others I've seen recently, it was still pretty bad. The car chases were ok until the transporter's vehicle became a mix of KITT, the General Lee and Herbie the Love Bug. The fight scenes were very reminescent of Jackie Chan. Overall, though, Transporter 2 (trailer) isn't the worst movie I've seen in a while. I give it two out of five.
