The Children of Men should compete with The Departed for best film of 2006. Incredibly well directed, shot, produced, acted, and on and on. Very human, very real.

First Syriana and now The Good Shepherd. I feel there is a trend in well-made movies that are trying to make me feel historically uneducated. Though I probably missed half of what was really going on in this movie, I can still recommend it as one where you will enjoy how each scene is put together (even if I had a lot of trouble putting the scenes together into a storyline). Another movie I'll have to watch again. It's a plot, I tell you.

If you liked "Sex and Lucia" you might like "Y Tu Mama Tambien" but probably not as much. (via cath)

Description

I do not tend to think of myself as a fan of the horror movie genre, much less of the zombie subgenre. However, I really enjoyed 28 Days Later. It's probably because I am very much a fan of the "last humans alive at the end of the world" features and this film did an excellent job of portraying one of these scenarios.

The movie that started it all. Still a classic and kids still love it the first time they see it.

The Constant Gardener (2005)

5 people recommended this item

Description

It took me forever to get around to watching this movie simply because of the title. I thought for sure it was some slow moving British romance. Turns out it is slow moving at times, it does have British folk in it, and there is some romance, but none of these really describe the film. I managed to ignore the "corporations are evil" preaching and enjoyed it just for the action and suspense. Sure, I saw a more shallow movie than most because of this, but I'm a bit tired of preaching and am looking for shallow movies. Also, it was filmed on location and there are some great visuals if you like seeing different parts of our planet.

Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind

Description

When they reach the last memory, Tangerine says "This is it. This is when we met. What should we do?" and Joel replies: "Enjoy it." One of the most beautiful, poignant moments on film. This is my favorite movie of all time. Charlie Kaufman is a god.

The Departed (2006)

Description

This movie is long, but I enjoyed every minute of it and didn't want it to end. Though I usually have a hard time following complex people plots, this movie kept me right there. I don't think I've enjoyed a movie this much since The Matrix (which it's nothing like, of course).
