St. Matthew Passion, Bach
Generally, I do not vote to see a performance more than once: there's too many others that I want to see. For Jonathan Miller's interpretation of Bach's St. Matthew Passion, I made an exception.
To begin, the music is sublime, and without doubt the performers in this ensemble are top-notch. The power of this presentation is escalated by making the chorus and soloists also actors. Thus, it moves from being a static oratorio to a shifting, moving opera of the highest caliber.
Highly recommend.

Trojan Barbie, Christine Evans
More interesting in conception than in execution. The script was rough, and something about the acting seemed tonally off kilter.

Watchmen, Zack Snyder
This film is three hours long; the first two hours are all backstory, and still there's not enough information for the narrative to make sense. For instance, as long as Dr. Manhattan is blue, it's okay to show full frontal nudity.
