Everyone watch Memento as soon as possible. That is all.

I've been plugging Memento to a friend of mine constantly lately.

[Commodore Schmidlapp]

Lucky Number Slevin

 

[That-Guy]

The Legend of 1900

 

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

If you haven't seen it

X-Men: First Class.

Arguably the best Marvel movie to date and I would image most people would be hard pressed to find a reason not to like the movie at all. Not perfect, but very well done.

Highly Recommended

I was going to start another thread to, perhaps I still will. But how about recommend a movie based on what I like/am in the mood for right now?

I am want to watch something, but not sure what to pick. I have several movies on hand I can pick from but not sure I really want to watch them. Just watched 13 Assassins last night and could go for something along those lines.

Looking for something action based, but with some story, doesn't have to be overly dramatic or overly action packed. Movies I like that come to mind that I have seen.

13 Assassins
Ronin
Leon: The Professional
The Fifth Element
Battle Los Angeles
Red
The Losers


Ideas anyone?

Great crime thriller with one of John Cusack's best roles.

Weird drama about a modern day assassin who lives like a samurai. It features a score by the RZA and an all around hip hop atmosphere.

Those put off by Woody Allen's usual characters will probably like this movie. Those who already like Allen will probably love it.

It lived up to Ebert's hype.

Deconstructive western by Robert Altman. I think it's as good as the Wild Bunch.

This is actually a really good film and not a Rambo spoof as the poster suggests.

13 Assassins

I've mentioned this movie in the recently watched thread but I have to highly recommend it. I wouldn't go as far as to say it is the best or one of the best samurai movies of all time. But its damn good, and would be surprised if it didn't give many people good reason to put it in their top 10 samurai movies.

The level of evil and complete lack of remorse that the build for the main villain is immediate from the beginning and just when you've already bought in and are ready for vengeance, it seems his evil knows no bounds.

 

[Mrs. Sawyer]

I recommend Once Upon a Time in the West. One of my favorite movies of all time, it features one of the best muscial scores of all time, and has some very memorable scenes.

Cedar Rapids - a sort of dark comedy. Surprisingly funny and a little odd to boot. 8/10.

 

[Monsieur Xavier]

You like cold hard science fiction [BLACKOUT]Time Travel[/BLACKOUT], no fanciness : Primer

A couple Aussie gems that everyone should see:

A perfectly haunting (and shocking) portrait of an Australian crime family.

If you've never really gotten the appeal of Eric Bana as an actor, this is guaranteed to clear that right up.

WOW....way to give it away. No spoiler alert?

 

[kedrell]

If you're sick of stuff like Twilight(and others) taking vampire movies too much to the tween-friendly extreme and want a vampire movie alternative, may I suggest:

Buy the same guy who did American Werewolf In London(which I actually like less than this movie). It's got humour, sure, but sex, violence and it earns it's R rating.

 

[BLACK-SPIDEY]

The Orphanage

So good......

 

[Monsieur Xavier]

WOW....way to give it away. No spoiler alert?

It is not really a spoiler, it's like saying Alien is about a monster in space.
Anyway, I will edit my post, can you do the same with your quote please

Ah, well for me I had no idea other than some friends built something with one intention of replacing the engine for modes of transportation and ended up building something entirely different.

So for me it would have been a spoiler.

Great movie though, which is why I already recommended it.
