    U2: The Unforgettable Fire
    Somehow, strangely, I had never heard this album until a few months ago. And I'm a big fan of the band. Of course it's a little more 80s than No Line, but if you can get past that, this is a magnificent album. Bono's wordplay adds texture to music that's already electrified and taken with American culture (Elvis, MLK and the 4th of July surface more than once). Highlights: "Pride", "Bad", "MLK" (****)

Speed Racer

Speedracer-lenticular2 Speed Racer (2008)
Directed by the Wachowski Bros.
**1/4

Also on the airplane. Deeply disappointing, if candy-stripe stylized, new flop from the makers of the Matrix flop trilogy.
