Blockbuster action director Michael Bay delivers a striking look at a strange world of the future in this sci-fi action drama. Midway through the 21st century, Lincoln Six Echo (Ewan McGregor) lives in a confined indoor community after ongoing abuse of the Earth has rendered most of the planet uninhabitable. One of the only places in the outside world still capable of sustaining life is an idyllic island where citizens are chosen to live through a lottery. Or at least that's what Lincoln and his fellow citizens are taught to believe; the truth is that Lincoln, like everyone he knows, is actually a clone who is kept under wraps to provide needed organs when the person who supplied his or her DNA falls ill. When he becomes aware that his existence is a fraud, Lincoln escapes to the outside world with a fellow clone, Jordan Two Delta (Scarlett Johansson), though the powers that be are determined to see that no one gets away alive. The Island also stars Steve Buscemi, Djimon Hounsou, Michael Clarke Duncan, and Sean Bean. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Immediately after the events of "Through the Looking Glass," princess Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter) learns that although the head and body of the Host (Andy Hallett) have been separated, he won't actually die until his body is desecrated. With help from Loren's quite animated noggin and the Groosalugg (Mark Lutz), she manages to rescue the rest of the Host's body from the defilement chamber and have it smuggled -- unharmed -- back to the Deathwok Clan. Meanwhile, Wesley (Alexis Denisof) and Gunn (J. August Richards) get involved in the battle between the warriors of the repressive Covenant of Trombli and some human rebels. Elsewhere, Fred (Amy Acker) and Angel (David Boreanaz) survive an attack from the Covenant's warriors and reconnect with Wes, Gunn, and the rebels. Wes now firmly in charge, he plans a stealth attack on the Covenant despite his certainty that some of his men will die -- and the knowledge that Angel will have to revert to his uncontrollable demon form to battle the Groosalugg (Mark Lutz). Back at the castle, a smitten Cordy learns from Groo that when they consummate their passion, her visions will pass into his half-demon body. Committed to her sacred task, she reluctantly refuses to "cum-shuk," then suffers a vision of Groo battling a monster, unaware that it's actually Angel he'll fight. The rebels attack, Groo and Angel duke it out non-fatally, and Angel gains control of his demon half. In the end, the Covenant is overthrown, democracy is established in Pylea, and Cordy bids her otherworldly lover goodbye. Thanks to the combined intellectual firepower of Wes and Fred, the team (including a fully restored Loren) returns to earth -- where Willow (Alyson Hannigan) informs them of Buffy's death. Originally broadcast May 22, 2001, on the WB network, "There's No Place Like Plrtz Glrb" marked season two, episode 22 of the supernatural comedy drama. ~ Brian J. Dillard, Rovi

A small-time crook who worships Steve McQueen gets in over his head in French music video director Dominique Forma's debut feature, Scenes of the Crime. Lenny (Jon Abrahams of Scary Movie) is about to be married, but he skips his own bachelor party to drive for thug Rick (Peter Greene), who, unbeknownst to Lenny, is planning a kidnapping. The kidnapping plot goes awry, and Lenny ends up alone in the van, holding the soft-spoken victim, Jimmy (Jeff Bridges), at gunpoint. Jimmy turns out to be a powerful criminal himself and warns Lenny that there will be dire consequences if he isn't released unharmed. While Jimmy's partner (Bob Gunton) negotiates his release with Rick's boss (Loyd Catlett), Jimmy's slimy bodyguard, Seth (Noah Wyle of E.R.), tries to figure out a way to resolve the situation himself. As the van sits parked on a city street, the couple that runs the nearby deli (Morris Chestnut and Madchen Amick) and a senile old man who lives nearby (R. Lee Ermey) become involved in the tense standoff. Based on an anecdote Forma heard in a seedy bar, Scenes of the Crime was shown in competition at the 2002 Tribeca Film Festival. ~ Josh Ralske, Rovi
