ROVE LIVE
Really, there's not much on Rove tonight apart from local lads Evermore. The former Feilding band of brothers made it big in Oz before registering here so it'll be like playing to a home crowd.


MOVIES

11.30PM, TV3
WAKING LIFE
Herald rating: * * * *
Waking Life is shot with real actors then drawn over in various animation styles ranging from realist to expressionist. It's the story of a man who is trying hard to negotiate the border between dreams and reality. Interesting that director Richard Linklater (Slacker, Dazed and Confused) has made a return of sorts to this visual style with this year's A Scanner Darkly. (2001)

8.30PM, SKY MOVIES 1
KICKING & SCREAMING
Herald rating: * *
Will Ferrell is entertaining in this family comedy, where he coaches a soccer team of misfits who face off against a more professional team. But it has been done so many times before and there's nothing new added to the formula here. Robert Duvall also stars. (2005)

8.40PM, PRIME
MY FAVORITE MARTIAN
Herald rating: *
Remake of the old TV comedy stars Christopher Lloyd as Uncle Martin. He's in orbit, but the gags just plummet. (1999)

8.30PM, RIALTO SKY DIGITAL
SUMMER OF SAM
Herald rating: * * * *
Director Spike Lee traded his usual themes of tension within black American communities for a story of paranoia in a 1970s New York-Italian community. Set in 1977 against a backdrop of fear generated by power blackouts, a heatwave and the very real Son of Sam murders by serial killer David Berkowitz, all of New York is in a state of confusion - so much so that people regard their closest friends with suspicion. The overall tone is reminiscent of Martin Scorcese's Mean Streets. (1999)


SPORT

GOLF: THE PGA CHAMPIONSHIP
6AM, SKY SPORT 1 LIVE
First round from Illinois' Medinah Country Club, which has been stretched to more than 6900m for the last major of the year. It is the longest course in the history of the majors but that shouldn't bother Tiger Woods or Phil Mickelson.

PAN PACIFIC SWIMMING CHAMPIONSHIPS
1.30PM, SKY SPORT 1 LIVE
An 18-strong New Zealand squad competes in the 10th Pan Pacs in Victoria, Canada. One of our strongest teams is up against the sport's world powers in Australia and the United States. Coverage continues at the same time daily.
