Stressing out about providing for his wife (Zellwhatever) and family, Jimmy is kicked off the boxing commission. Almost a year later when a boxer bails out of a big fight, Jimmy's manager (Giamatti) asks him to fill in and take on the rising fighter John Griffin. With a great upset, Jimmy jumpstarts his career in an upward spiral. Cinderella Man is a better version of Seabiscuit placed in a boxing ring. It is sure to have you rooting for the underdog as if he was fighting for you.

But this time they might have finally gotten it right. is bad. Of course it is! Lucas wrote it! But there are many good points worth bringing up. Jar Jar only appears for one scene of the movie, and he doesn't even talk!, The special effects are amazing and add to the intensity and emotion (check out the lava eruptions). Hayden Christensen can act... better. Natalie Portman is in it, which makes any bad movie good. And the fights. Ohh the FIGHTS! You will see the fastest and best choreographed sabre fights you've seen in any of the previous films. Episode III makes up for all the crap that Lucas put us through in the previous two films. Check it out. I'm sure you will agree. Courtesy Photo/ Warner Bros. The Longest Yard He's done it again! Adam Sandier has made another great comedy. What really distinguishes The Longest Yard from all the other Sandier classics is the fact that it isn't solely based on his random humor. It also contains a lot of gut-busting racial jokes from his co-star Chris Rock. The Longest Yard is roughly based on the 1974 Burt Reynolds film about an ex-NFL quarterback (Sandier) whose pride is so great that it won't let him lose. After getting Star Wars: Episode IllRevenge of the Sith Radio Albums V PAGEA5 See MOVIES-A6 After our worst fears were realized with Episodes I & II, Episode III didn't seem too promising. I am pleased to be the bearer of good news. With Revenge of the Sith there is "a new hope" for the Star Wars saga! Now don't get me wrong, Sith has its flaws. Some of the acting is not convincing.

The team took fi rst place in formation standard and second place in formation Latin, competing against finalists from Italy, China, Hungary and Great Britain, to name a few. "This year's team was exceptional," said Ballroom Dance Director Scott Asbell. "It's very rewarding to watch students sacrifice so much and receive that type of recognition on a world stage." And the team was definitely recognized, bringing home an 85-year-old solid silver trophy and invitations to dance for the UN Delegation at the General Assembly and the World Health Organization in the Geneva Opera House next year. "I suspected we'd do well," Asbell said. "These are some of the finest dancers we've ever had at UVSC."
