Analyze This
Imagine "The Sopranos" sans violence and loaded with laughs, and you'll enjoy Analyze This. Robert De Niro, deftly spoofing his previous wise-guy roles, plays powerful Mafia racketeer Paul Vitti. Shrink Billy Crystal has just days to resolve Vitti's emotional crisis and turn him into a happy, well-adjusted gangster. With apologies to Don Corleone, Analyze This is a comedy you can't refuse.

Army of Darkness
One of director Sam Raimi's most memorable early works, Army of Darkness is a hilarious sword-and-sorcery epic as only this sci-fi maven can deliver. Bound in human flesh and inked in blood, the ancient "Necronomicon," or "Book of the Dead," transports a department store clerk and his '73 Oldsmobile into England's Dark Ages. There he faces legions of undead beasts in a battle for his life, his wits and, perhaps, for humanity.

As Good As It Gets
Chronic malcontent and agoraphobic novelist Jack Nicholson hates everybody … except the waitress (Helen Hunt) at his favorite restaurant. Little by little he's drawn out -- and into her life and the life of his gay next-door neighbor (Greg Kinnear). As Good As It Gets offers a nice mix of blithe comedy and poignant drama. Nicholson and Hunt won Oscars for their roles.
