Amélie

Description

OK, OK, OK. I've seen it like four times, and yes it's a bit of a no-brainer - an adorable French girl traipses around in the Montmarte of yore trying to become a better person, and find love - but it really is an amazing upper.

This is my favorite movie! Well, it's a tie with Zoolander. I love the cattiness, the drama, and the comedy. I am Regina George :)

Tommy Boy

Description

Just a hilarious movie, about a fat misfit (Chris Farley) who has to run his dad's auto break parts business with an uppity little jerk (David Spade) as his partner.

Fight Club (1999)

9 people recommended this item

Description

This movie is so sick, both literally and figuratively. It's gritty, manly, hard-hitting, and makes you want to get punched in the head as well as punch others. Perfect! Ed Norton and Brad Pitt before both became way too serious for their own good.

Eddie Murphy Raw

First to recommend

Description

Eddie Murphy, before his obsession with fat suits, was actually a hilarious stand-up comedian. Eddie Murphy Raw is a comedy classic, right up there with Richard Pryor, and with better clothes (read: leather jumpsuit)

The Prestige

Description

This movie promised to be my favorite movie of all time - David Bowie as Nikola Tesla? Are you serious? - and though it didn't live up to my lofty expectations, it did better - it defied them. The end will throw you for such a huge loop you'll have to watch it again and again.

Donnie Darko

Description

You might not totally understand this movie the first time you watch it, but I promise all the information necessary to understand it is in there (you just have to watch it a couple more times).

Jake Gyllenhaal, Noah Wylie, Drew Barrymore in a flick by Richard Kelly. Plus, it has an awesome 80s soundtrack. Listen to the commentary (especially on the directors cut version) and you'll think Richard Kelly is a very smart person.

Mrs. Doubtfire

First to recommend

4 people recommended this item

Description

Possibly the best family movie ever - heartfelt and child friendly without being sappy or boring. Robin Williams is a recently divorced dad who pretends to be an elderly female nanny to stay close to his kids. His ability to do this is explained by the fact that he works as a voice-over guy for cartoons.

Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure

7 people recommended this item

Description

Ridiculous flick about two, like, totally awesome dudes and their gnarly adventure through history! Like a less thoughtful "History of the World Part I", with more babes.
