...chops have improved considerably during his stint as band leader for Late Night with Conan O'Brien. Clarence Clemons' sax work displays nuances and noodlings that were absent from his bombastic style in the '70s and '80s. And the return of Bruce's original sidekick from his Asbury Park bar-band days, guitarist Steve Van Zandt--now a co-star on the acclaimed HBO series The Sopranos--adds a powerful but intangible measure of heart and soul...

...Berlin, the Boss marched across the stage like a peacemaking Patton surveying the troops after the liberation of Europe. Judging by their ability to sing along (in English) with every song, the Germans appeared only slightly less familiar with the geography of the Jersey shore than the average Asbury Park gas-station attendant. On the second night, when the band finished up Badlands, the audience kept the song going.

Used with these ratings, the V chip could be helpful to parents who aren't always home when their kids watch TV and don't want them viewing South Park or the Playboy channel. However, not all networks and cable outlets use the ratings. (NBC, for instance, has declined to use the content label.)

...Writer Adam Herz and the hot producer-director team of Chris and Paul Weitz occasionally hint that a teenager's most poignant groping is for his elusive identity. But don't expect this summer movie to have the huffing charm of Austin Powers or the tuneful brass of South Park.
