'Bringing Down the House,' 'Agent Cody Banks' and 'What A Girl Wants'

NEW YORK – Lots of new DVDs debuting including "Bringing Down the House," "Agent Cody Banks" and "What a Girl Wants."

Remember when Steve Martin made great movies? OK, it's been a while. And even though "Bringing Down The House" made money, it doesn't make it great. Still, new out on DVD, maybe the laughs will seem bigger on a smaller screen. In the movie, Queen Latifah is a rapper out of water. And Eugene Levy steals the movie. He's straight trippin' boo.

Next Frankie Muniz is a long way from Malcolm in "Agent Cody Banks." The spy movie, comedy was a surprise hit and spawned a sequel, so if you want to see what all the fuss is about, this is your chance.   But this is Angie Harmon's idea of a film career after "Law & Order?"

Finally, I think if you're Amanda Bynes, "What A Girl Wants" is a better movie script, director, cast and agent. Better luck next time.
