Best movie I've seen recently was a baseball movie (on DVD) called Mickey. Stars Harry Connick Jr. (so there, it's music related too). Nothing to do with Mickey Mantle btw.
I thought I'd seen all the good baseball movies, but this 2003 released slipped me by back then. Great movie if you've got (or had) kids in little league.

Best recent theatre movie (if you still consider it recent), was Star Wars. War of the Worlds was so-so.
