NY Daily News points out a welcome development in young Hollywood: the death of man-bangs.

Victims of the unfortunate hair trend included Zac Efron, Chace Crawford and Jared Leto, but they have all cut their hair recently.

They are now officially men. Er, ... as opposed to boys. We never questioned their gender, promise.

No we won't have to see those unnaturally stiff diagonal hair strips covering their pretty faces anymore.

Funny thing, though; Jared went with his own style, but Chace and Zac are both now sporting hairstyles that look, shall we say, familiar. We're a sucker for the mussy, flipped-back 'do!

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
