Z's

Zach Galifinakis: Live at the Purple Onion  2006
Zach Galifinakis

This comedy special is a pisser.  If you like Zach's humor you will fully enjoy this one!  It switches back and forth from Zach's live stand up in a small bar to an interview with Zach's "brother" Seth.  I have always found Zach's material to be a hidden gem.  He can throw a blast at someone so commonly toned, you almost miss the insult.  I feel that his comedic gift is over looked by publicized talentless hacks.  Zach seems to thoroughly think up his material, which is why I praise him for his genius.





Zodiac  2007
Jake Gyllenhaal   Robert Downey Jr.

A California newspaper cartoonist becomes obsessed with cracking the mysterious serial killer case titled "Zodiac."  I enjoyed this film because it covers a lot of information.  It tends to run a bit long, but keeps you entertained with a combination of information and a dramatic reenactment of each of the murders and encounters.  If you like serial killer inspired films then I would definitely suggest this one.
