I just got a movie in the mail called The Education of Charlie Banks. When I saw that Fred Durst was the director of the movie, I was skeptical, but I have to admit, it was a damn good movie, and Fred did a great job of making the film. Here is what NETFLIX says about the movie:

Years after Charlie (Jesse Eisenberg) fingers Mick (Jason Ritter) for a brutal assault, Mick shows up at Charlie’s university and insinuates himself into college life. As Mick audits classes, sleeps with Charlie’s dream girl and ponders how his life might have been different, Charlie anxiously wonders whether Mick knows he ratted him out. Limp Bizkit front man Fred Durst’s directorial debut, this powerful drama co-stars Chris Marquette.

Purely by coincidence, I watched two movies about crooked cops this week. I rented Righteous Kill (Robert DeNiro & Al Pacino) just because it had DeNiro & Pacino in it. I thought it was a pretty damn good movie too. I actually didn’t see the twist coming.

Pride and Glory (Edward Norton & Colin Farrell) wasn’t a bad movie either, but was more straightforward and predictable.

Note: Do not piss off cops.

Night Of The White Pants. For some reason, I thoroughly enjoyed this movie.

From Netflix:

Thrown out of his mansion by his soon-to-be ex-trophy wife, Barbara (Janine Turner), Dallas businessman Max Hagan (Tom Wilkinson) forges an unlikely connection with punk rocker Raff (Nick Stahl), the boyfriend of his workaholic daughter, Beth (Selma Blair). Joining Raff for a wild night on the town, Max abandons his thoroughly dysfunctional life and gets in touch with his inner punk in this rollicking comedy from writer-director Amy Talkington.
