In Bruges

6 people recommended this item

Description

This is a relatively under-hyped Hollywood production but is well worth watching. The acting is terrific and the story line creative. The setting of Bruges, Belgium is a nice addition to the movie experience. The content of the movie is not suitable for kids so reserve it for date night.

Jerry Maguire

2 people recommended this item

Description

This is one of my favorite movies despite the fact that I can't stand to watch Renee Zellweger on screen. She is so annoying. However, the character development of the Jerry McGuire role is brilliant. You can really feel his conflict, ambition, short comings, pain, and ultimately, joy. And Cub Gooding Jr is hilarious--although I don't think his performance was deserving of an Academy Award.

The Departed Two Disc Special Edition with Exclusive Original Movie Script

3 people recommended this item

Description

Great cast and strong story--Mark Wahlberg, Matt Damon, Leornardo DiCaprio, and Jack. The movie walks the balance between being entertaining and funny to deadly serious. It's a great ride. Plus, I love the ending to the movie.

High Fidelity

9 people recommended this item

Description

Confession: I love all John Cusack movies--Sure Thing, Say Anything, Stand By Me, Sixteen Candles, Pushing Tin, Con Air (ok, maybe not this one), Gross Point Blank, and High Fidelity. Cusack's characters all have a similar vibe and his acting skills seem to be relatively thin. However, he's just a likable guy who you want to pull for in the end. Plus, his movies all had great sound tracks which remind me of my youth. Who doesn't recall Peter Gabriel's In Your Eyes and Cusack's famous stance with the boom box over head?!

A River Runs Through It

2 people recommended this item

Description

The setting of this movie takes place in Montana and the scenery is magnificent. Combine the physical beauty of the landscape with a well written script and you have a great movie. I think everyone can identify with the two different personalities of the brothers in this movie and the common admiration and love they have for one another.

Legends of the Fall (Special Edition)

This epic film spanning a generation of time and the first world war is a classic. Anthony Hopkins, Aiden Quinn, and Brad Pitt are all brilliantly cast and acted in this movie. There is strong emotion in this movie and the imagery is moving.

Fight Club, collectors edition.

9 people recommended this item

Description

This is one of the most creative movies I have ever seen. Great twists and turns and a powerful ending. If you are a "guy's guy" then you can't help but want to BE Brad Pitt in this movie. Ed Norton is terrifc as well. This movie is highly entertaining.

Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind

25 people recommended this item

Description

Great movie and a suprising love story. The sequencing of the movie gives the characters depth and complexity. You can't help but root for the relationship between Jim Carrey (who is surprisingly good) and Kate Winslett.
