...between an energetic child and a hyperactive one, between a spirited, risk-taking kid and an alarmingly impulsive one, between flexibility and distractibility? What if a little pill makes everything a bit easier, not just for severely impaired kids but for those who teachers say are a little too spacey or jumpy or hard to settle down? Is there something wrong with the kids--or is there something wrong with...

...bass at times. Up seems to take a lot of the positives from New Adventures in Hi-Fi and combines them with traditional R.E.M. The absence of Berry, who left as the result of a brain aneurysm during the Monster Tour, translates itself into an exotic mixture of spacey beats on several tracks. Screaming Trees drummer Barret Martin and Beck's Joey Waronker add occasional human drumming, but in reality, the drumming doesn't play too major a role in the guitar and vocal-driven group...

...hostage negotiator for the Chicago police (Samuel L. Jackson), is falsely accused of corruption and murder. He becomes a hostage taker, hoping to put pressure on his bosses to clear his name. He'll talk only with his one equal in this dangerous line of work, Chris Sabian (Kevin Spacey). Two strong actors in a strong situation: a recipe for a taut, tense, smart movie. And for a while The Negotiator is just that, with a genuinely puzzling mystery built in (if Roman isn't the killer, who is?). But Hollywood doesn't trust talk, particularly in summer. So eventually...
