The Aviator ... 7/10. Didn't know a lot about Howard Hughes biography before this, so it had kind of an A Beautiful Mind plot twist for me. I knew he was an airline tycoon and involved in movies. I didn't know he was insane.
White Men Can't Jump. 2/10. I cannot believe I liked this movie when I was a teenager. A pitiful movie about a real loser with a horrifically annoying girlfriend, and a slightly lesser loser with a slightly less annoying wife ... repeatedly losing all their money (not much) in the pathetic-stakes world of basketball hustling. Because they suck at hustling basketball games. But, hundreds of dollars are at stake ... because if you're going to swindle somebody, pick somebody who spends all their time playing blacktop basketball. That's where all the rich people go. Then the horrifically annoying chick -- who's not especially bright, and still dates the worst basketball hustler in the world -- wins at Jeopardy (right). And, lets her dumbass boyfriend bet her winnings on another blacktop basketball game. Because that makes sense. Terrible.
