It's neither insightful enough to be a full documentary, nor is it complete enough for a full concert film, but Michael Jackson's This Is It offers a unique film experience that will divide many filmgoers into two camps.

Whip It does not have an exclamation point in its title, but this mistake--made by more than a few blogs, interviews, and reviews--is understandable. Drew Barrymore's directorial debut is such an energetic celebration of grrrl power that it seems the spirited punctuation should be a given.
