Yeah, it really depends on the interpretation of "often-maligned." I would pitch Enemy of the State for this, because it was the one place where Tony Scott's (God rest 'im) hyperactive, multi-cut, multi-angle style was right for the subject.

From the trailer, it looks like he gets killed in the first ten minutes. I'll go with hologram, yeah.
So, let's break this down. After Earth is a metaphor for sending your son into Hollywood. And Will has figured out that 90% of Best Actor Oscars go to men playing mental illness or historical figures. Therefore, After Earth will end with Jaden becoming some version of a mentally ill historical figure…OH MY GOD, he…
AAAAAAAAAGGGGHHHHH!
Community's second body-switching episode goes horribly, horribly wrong.

Nathan to Tasha: "hey, did you see my stipple portrait?"
The AV Club retroactively, but reluctantly, accepts your demand:
Swimming to Cambodia, fuck yeah. That was my introduction to Gray, and is still my favorite work of his (Gray's Anatomy, which I saw live, is a close second). It's funny and heartbreaking and introduced me to the power of witnessing, and how you can convey the impact of something so enormous by showing one mind…

Thank you @avclub-f8f8c273f326be25421cc62737d24a9e:disqus for what was possibly the best long-running commenter's feature on this site. Certainly it's the best still available here since the mysterious disappearance of Sophist's Buffy posts. It's been great fun. You can make sense out of yesterday.

@avclub-997c221538094d134659141cf61d51e3:disqus : thank you. Here's a longer discussion of it from me (and of course, @avclub-f8f8c273f326be25421cc62737d24a9e:disqus ' parent post is pretty darned fantastic too): http://www.avclub.com/artic…
@avclub-4864fe6dd0bdd3dd11ffd6bc4367f3ba:disqus : well that's fair; it's clear that we saw the same movie and this is a case of what made me like it is what made you not like it, which is the sort of thing that happens with art.
Che is not a bio. Its subject isn't Che, but the practice of guerrilla warfare. Che made clear in his writings (Soderbergh used them as the basis of both parts, both in words and in tone) that one of the important things about becoming a revolutionary is that you abandon "personal thing[s]" and become part of a…
I will get cable and a subscription to HBO right the fuck now if you can promise me Eddie Jemison will say "I gotta think about this" at some point in this movie.
Schizopolis and Che are absolute (and difficult) masterpieces, with Solaris close behind; Ocean's 11 and Out of Sight are pure, high-quality slabs of tasty entertainment. Whatever the critical consensus is, I will love and defend these movies always.
No, I don't know what "angular momentum" means either.
"Renner has fun with the part, which allows him to be cockier and more charming than usual"—well holy shit, that would make him pretty-much a one-man version of both Ocean's 11 teams.
