Best & Worst: Friends Movies
The Good Girl (2002) 
The Friend: Jennifer Aniston
The Movie: Aniston makes good by pairing up with  influential indie director Miguel Arteta - and in an instant we’ve  forgotten all about the romcom fluff she’s been pedalling since the mid  ‘90s. Barely cracking a smile, her ‘Rachel hair’ is scraped back into  unforgiving ponytails as Aniston breathes snarky misery into supermarket  worker Justine. Married to the doltish Phil (John C Reilly), Justine’s bored. Bored at  home. Bored at work. Then she meets passionate young checkout boy Holden  (Jake Gyllenhaal), and trips into a fiery affair. Easily Aniston’s most accomplished screen performance, Good Girl finds  the actress being bold and daring for the first time. Outside of her  comfort zone, she’s electric as Justine – frumpy, miserable and  borderline unlikeable. Ironically, it makes us like Aniston all the  more…

Jake Gyllenhaal to take on The Bourne Legacy?
Jake Gyllenhaal could be about to replace Matt Damon as the macho man-hero of the Bourne film series. The Source Code star is currently heading up a list of promising young actors who writer-director Tony Gilroy is considering for his Bourne Legacy.Other actors on that list include Tobey Maguire, Garrett Hedlund, Taylor Kitsch and Kellan Lutz, though apparently a much longer list includes the likes of Josh Hartnett, Paul Dano, Michael Fassbender and Alex Pettyfer. The bigger names are apparently mostly at the behest of Universal, who are understandably antsy that they get their casting on this new Bourne adventure 100% right.

And it’s about as dramatic and loopy as you’d hope it would be. Forgoing the story’s pivotal train, it’s a more abstract offering that plays around with the film’s plot.
