...plausibility is the concern of the 9/11 Commission, not of audiences looking for an exciting time at a February popcorn picture. Their vantage point isn't above the action, where they can dispassionately parse the plot and solve the mystery. It's behind the wheel of Dennis Quaid's churning vehicle, which sends innocent pedestrians sprawling as he pursues the bad guys. He's Mel Gibson as Madman Martin Briggs, and he's not in a sophisticated political parable like The Manchurian Candidate but the latest unofficial remake of Lethal Weapon...

Their shared filmography adds up to more than $5 billion at the U.S. box office.

...would say,"get your popcorn ready" for Pats-Colts. And when you see another Kobe/A-Rod update on ESPN? Flip the channel to the NFL, college football, America's Next Top Model, anything else. When superstar athletes make more news off the field (or court) than on it, you know it's time to get your eye back on the ball...
