Ross McElwee's amazing new film Sherman's March shares the best elements of home movies. The film's ostensible subject is the director Ross McElwee himself, and the photography and synchronized sound were taken by McElwee as he lugged his 16mm camera to secluded islands, mountain retreats and the guest bedrooms of a series of women from his romantic past. But unlike your basic home movie, McElwee has not sent forth a slew of random holiday footage.

ROCKY IV contains few elements of a traditional film. Instead of a movie, Stallone has created a visual and aural experience design to bombast and overwhelm the viewer's senses. All the blows have been amplified and run through some electronic thingamajig to produce a sound much akin to a pack of wolves attacking a square mile of sheet metal.

The audience has to weather flashing lights, smoke, flags, flying drops...
