Broken Flowers(Zlomené kvety) - Drama by Jim Jarmusch. What should have been the brilliant meeting of two great minds - Jarmusch and Bill Murray - is instead a sporadically funny, occasionally touching, but mostly disappointing and tedious story about an aging ladies' man who hits the road to find former lovers, in search of his potential long-lost son.

Fun with Dick and Jane(Finty Dicka a Jane) - Comedy by Dean Parisot. - When it focuses on satirizing the US corporate and political culture, this Enron-inspired romantic crime caper is biting and clever, but when Dick (Jim Carrey) and Jane (Tea Leoni) start robbing stores and banks, it goes downhill pretty quickly.
