   "Kinetic" is the phenomenological term for high-action warfare like that in Iraq. Director Paul Thomas Anderson has assembled a wonderful team of actors and given audiences a very kinetic, often loud visual symphony on the dilemmas of "revolutionary" left. As sad and tragic as things may seem in the movie, it's really a comedy. That's its genius. I'm a Vietnam veteran peace-activist and, at times, I could not stop laughing. In the end, the film is a wholesome advocacy for responsible parenting.
