There's a stretch during the excellent documentary Weiner in which everything in the world is going right for eponymous former congressman Anthony Weiner. It’s highlighted with the politician sitting in a subway, getting nods of approval from New Yorkers reading articles proclaiming his pole position in the race to be New York City's next mayor. The train ride comes months after his first fall from office, and it's clear he's enjoying the serenity and validation from his potential constituents. In his own way, Anthony Weiner has very much earned this one moment in the sun. At least until the bottom drops out, because Anthony Weiner is constructed to self-destruct.

 In most other years I’d be much more elated to see “Captain America: Civil War.” It’s mostly what I want from a superhero film, a smart film with well-done action sequences and one of the most fascinating villains the Marvel franchise has produced.
