Quote of the Week -- Stephen Hunter
Stephen Hunter reviews "The Guardian:"
The movie begins to overload its frail reed of a structure with giant sloppages of cliches from other movies, some so bad it's almost comical. Costner's wife (Sela Ward) has left him and he misses her, so we get a few scenes of the drunken, embittered guy on the phone, begging her to pick up over voice mail. Then Kutcher picks up a gal at a bar (Washingtonian Melissa Sagemiller) and begins one of those aren't-we-quiptastic flirtations that seem to happen only in movies.

"Aren't we quiptastic" -- that's a great Stephen Hunter line. I haven't seen The Guardian, but it could also describe any exchange on The Gilmore Girls or any Aaron Sorkin show (with the addition of fast walking down hallways).
