...Garcias' sophomore effort is twenty-odd tracks of the mediocrity we've come to expect from those associated with Master P. Rise to Power is the newest testament to the sad consequences of a crew with one single (in this case, the title track) putting out a whole album: an hour of mediocre flow about tittie chasing, pistol whipping and dope dealing, something the brothers apparently know quite a bit about. Currently under federal indictment for conspiracy to possess and distribute cocaine, the Garcia boys can count on more credibility for the thuggishness of their lyrics, even if Juvenile, Mystikal...

...famed director Jay Roach, whose accolades include both Austin Powers films, and David E. Kelley, producer of "Ally McBeal" insert their characteristic wit and humor to bring out the best in this slightly odd looking comedy.

The season premiere of Masterpiece Theatre can be poignant, yes, but just as often it's sly and funny, as Albert Finney, playing a randy former R.A.F. pilot, and Tom Courtenay, a fastidious retired milkman, are thrown into a sort of Odd Couple living arrangement. When Finney sets his sights on a chic divorce (Joanna Lumley, of Absolutely Fabulous), the results are delightfully unpredictable. And the richly nuanced performances are altogether superb...

...People?s party leader Wolfgang Schuessel to go into opposition if he finished third. After all, it was only the failure of his squabbling opponents to reach a coalition deal that allowed another Austrian demagogue to win Germany?s 1933 election. And like Hitler, Haider combines an odd assortment of conservative and left-wing economics with a paranoid fear of foreigners, a put-upon sense that his country has been wronged and an exhortation for it to rise to its formal imperial glory. Now where?s that Von Trapp family when you need them...
