There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

I really like Aaron Sorkin's work. West Wing, Newsroom, A Few Good Men are some of my favourite pieces of script. So are the first 18 episodes of Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. The characters are incredibly well cast and developed, the writing is witty, funny and thought inspiring, with Sorkin's typical social commentary. I was overjoyed I had found this show and recommended it to many people after only a few episodes. However, the last four episodes, took a completely different turn. They are not funny at all. They present predictable drama, where tension is achieved only because we care about the great characters from earlier in the show. Moreover, Sorkin's typically highly intelligent, educated and politically aware protagonists are hell-bent on giving over ten million dollars of ransom to terrorists, throughout the whole four episodes and nobody considers it to be wrong, except a cocky army lieutenant. It was a great show, except a terrible slip-up at the end, so if you are thinking about watching it, I would advise you to stop after episode 18.

Studio 60 is the perfect series because it has a fantastic cast, the writing is top notch and there isn't a single episode in the one and only season that I don't love. I'm amazed that it didn't return for a second series but am thankful that Sorkin used the last episode to wrap up all the loose ends and give the show the magical ending it needed.Matthew Perry and Bradley Whitfords chemistry is fantastic and it is them who hold the show together while Sarah Paulson and Steven Weber are also on top form in their roles. The love story between Matt and Harriet is beautiful and the show within a show element in great. Studio 60 is the best show that got cancelled ever and I have no doubt that it will become a cult classic in years to come.

I had never seen or heard of this series until I spotted in on Netflix. All I can say is "wow, how did this only run for one season?". The acting is excellent and that the cast are provided with great dialog certainly helps. You have to follow the dialog closely to catch all the zingers and wit.Great look at "behind the scenes" Hollywood and the "business" of TV with a cast and characters that you would not necessarily expect to interact so seamlessly and provide both an excellent dramatic and comedic interplay (based on some of their earlier "dumbed down" TV roles). Check this series out. You won't be disappointed.

I read through some of the user comments and I have to disagree with almost every criticism leveled at it. I also have to laugh irony given the main topic of the show.The characters were not mis-cast. Sarah Paulson's Harriet Hays was perfect, exactly the type of character missing on most TV shows to begin with and the most common face that many of us never see when Christian or religious characters are portrayed. She was not a stereotype, she created her own personality and being just like a real person. Amanda Peet, who I am no fan of, was playing the guarded tough gal in the boys club. What do we expect? Her to break down every time Steven Weber's Jack Rudolph yells at her? Comparing this show to the West Wing isn't fair, that was a show about how our ideals and the White House interact. This show has characters who are less than ideal and are already swayed to their beliefs, they don't spend time hashing them out as much as on the west wing, instead, they fight Amercia's perceived culture war on camera for us and usually wind up showing us just how few differences most of us really have. The sketches were not as funny as SNL's, but that's not the point of the show. Anyone who complained about that is utterly missing the point of the sketches to begin with, they are nothing more than social commentary. The comedy in the happens when the show within the show isn't on the air.The fact that this show fell victim to the very themes it was portraying may be the best sacrifice it could've made for the American TV audience. I realize not everyone is going to appreciate the things I do, and that's fine, but to allow TV to become nothing but the Real World with different settings over and over again is a waste. The mediocrity of most sitcoms, even Perry's Friends, is fine from time to time but every now and then something a bit more substantial would be nice.
