Boarding Gate A former hooker (Asia Argento) escapes London for Hong Kong after an S&M session with Michael Madsen goes bad (as they usually do). Sex, drugs, violence, gun play, nudity and the usual Argento antics ensue. All this, and Sonic Youth’s Kim Gordon as a China gangsta!

The Dead Zone: The Final Season You’d think that over six seasons,
The Dead Zone could have finally resolved that whole apocalypse subplot properly; too bad the series milked it too long and got canceled before the planet did.
The Final Season ties up the loose ends, but why no alternate finale in flames? Just me?

The Eye Jessica Alba’s string of terrible, terrible movies continues with a remake of a Korean horror flick about a blind woman who receives a pair of haunted transplant eyeballs and begins seeing dead people. So, really, it should have been called
The Eyes. Or,
Jessica Alba Sucks Once Again.

Semi-Pro The true story of ABA-NBA merger of the ’70s—sort of. Will Ferrell plays Jackie Moon, owner of Michigan’s Flint Tropics (you know, like Utah Jazz) and promotional genius, er, idiot. Not Ferrell’s best sports comedy, but hey: Afros, bear fights and Russian roulette! Just me?

Weeds: Season 3 Arguably the most action-packed and funniest season of
Weeds yet, despite the ill-advised addition of Mary-Kate Olsen as a Jesus-freak pot dealer. Mary-Louise Parker is as amazing as ever, but the rest of the cast has finally risen to her level—just in time for the ’burbs to burn down.
