Carmen Sandiego - The Beijing Bullion Caper

The final season of Carmen Sandiego opens with another win for Carmen Sandiego (Gina Rodriguez) who prevents V.I.L.E. agents Lady Dokuso (Sumalee Montano) and Mime Bomb from kidnapping a dignitary with access to China’s gold reserve. The episode is notable for the dignitary’s kick-ass daughter Xifeng (Krista Marie Yu) whose quick reflexes and attention to detail help save the day and A.C.M.E. still having no clue as to Carmen’s true motivations, ignoring the testimony of Graham Calloway (Michael Goldsmith) in favor of the suspicions of the ever unreliable Chase Devineaux (Rafael Petardi).

The Burial

Based on true events, The Burial offers the odd couple pairing of Tommy Lee Jones as the owner of a family funeral business in Mississippi who enlists the help of a flashy attorney (Jamie Foxx) after being taken advantage by the CEO (Bill Camp) of a Canadian company that backed out of a deal that would have saved the family business. The curmudgeonly Jeremiah O’Keefe (Jones) and the flashy  Willie E. Gary (Foxx) have their ups and downs, but the film is as much (if not more) about the respect and friendship that develops between the unlikely pair as the court case itself.
