I agree with BoyEngland, Inside Man was great.

Well now that I've got a bit of time, I'll pick and choose a few movies out of that list I posted earlier. Many have been mentioned already, so I'll try not to repeat....


Be Kind Rewind - Just finished watching this, good flick. Funny and enjoyable.
Four Brothers - An all-time favorite of mine, nobody mentioned it yet. Awesome movie.
Heat - Pacino + De Niro, all that needs to be said there. Best 'heist' movie ever in my opinion.
The Negotiator - Always on TNT, but I watch it every time I see it on.
Collateral - Michael Mann at his best, definitely worth a watch.
The Shawshank Redemption - Quite possibly the greatest movie of all time. I dare someone to say that they do not like this movie.
Kingdom of Heaven - Epic. That's the only word to describe this movie.
Catch me if You Can - Say whatever you want, but this movie is great entertainment.
8MM - Nicolas Cage, snuff films, dirty porn, scary guy with a mask, etc. Nonetheless, a good watch that not everyone has seen. (Just make sure you don't watch 8MM 2, because I'd prefer lighting myself on fire to watching it again.)
The Prestige - ****ing amazing. The best movie I've seen in the past few years, easily. If you watch one movie I recommend, make it this.

Oh, and on the offhand chance that you haven't seen it, Requiem for a Dream. You'll want to do all sorts of drugs.... but then you won't. It's a great movie, actually anything by Darren Aronofsky is good. Check out The Fountain or Pi if you're looking for something unique.

One really good movie I just saw that I haven't seen in awhile is Frequency. I love the storyline... really creative.

The Prestige and Collateral are amazing. Collateral is really original and different, which I like. Plus Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx are both beasts.

And just about anything that has Denzel Washington in it is pretty much a sick movie to watch.

John Q was also a good film with Denzel Washington in.

I saw John Q, Crash, and Inside Man all in criminal justice class last year. I don't usually say "I like [actor] in [film]" but Denzel was great is John Q and Inside man. (I know, he wasn't in Crash)

I would have put Casino Royale on my list (specifically) but it took me 3 viewings before I could stay awake though the entire thing and a further one to understand the story.

All this talk of films makes me want to watch BHD but if I do, I will probably find myself hunting for the it's PS2 counterpart in a shop tomorrow.

Hahahaha.

I was watching it tonight and had forgot how much I liked it... Coach Carter. Say what you want, but that's a damn good sports movie, even if typical.

Ok, I'll give you my list of some of my favorites


Rock and Rule

Little Shop of Horrors- the musical, not the original film

Matango: Attack of the Mushroom People

Uzumaki

Happiness of the Katakuris -seriously, track this one down, it's a movie like nothing you've EVER seen before, and probably never will see anything else come close

Masters of the Universe- just for the laughs, really. I mean really, Dolph Lungdren?

Ralph Bakshi's Wizards-an evil wizard uses old Nazi propaganda films to motivate his minions into conquering a magical realm. Now, I think it's impossible to read a plot summary like that and not be interested enough to check it out.

A Chinese Ghost Story- A Live-action kung fu romance supernatural comedy. What's not to love? There is also an animated adaptation, both pretty much tell the same story

I'm not going to bother naming any classic movies, because honestly, you've probably heard people reccomend you those films already anyway
