Watching this video made me wish for a time machine so that I could go back in time for the sole purpose of following U2's ZooTV tour. This is an electrifying live concert, absolutely phenomenal. Bono manages to appear to be connecting with every single concert attendee. Not to be missed covers of Unchained Melody, Lou Reed's Satellite of Love and a very non-Elvis version of Can't Help Falling in Love, plus amazing renditions of both U2 classics like Pride(In the Name Of Love) and Bullet the Blue Sky and lesser known songs like Dirty Day and Love is Blindness. A must-see if you are either a U2 fan or just a fan of concerts in general. Electrifying!

Julia Roberts, Brad Pitt and James Gandolfini sparkle in this charming romance, playing off of eachother excellently. The story is witty and full of surprises, and backed by an excellent eclectic soundtrack. Watching the development of Brad Pitt's character was particularly delightful, reminding me of his real talent and charisma. Unfortunately, the storyline was not put together as cleanly as it could have been. A bevy of inconsistencies, particularly toward the end, really detracted from the overall quality of what could have been an excellent film.

This is not a great film by any stretch of the imagination, but it was not intended to be a great film, just a diverting and sweet romance, and that it does very nicely, if not perfectly. The chemistry between Ashley Judd and Hugh Jackman is excellent. Just watching these two talented and beautiful actors play off of each other is worth the price of admission, and makes you forget some of the films other flaws, such as the mostly humourless voiceovers and the usually excellent Greg Kinnear, slouching his way through his scenes with a hang-dog look and puppy dog eyes instead of giving his character any real depth.
