Stop-Loss
2 recommendations
"I saw Stop-Loss in theaters and left out in tears. It's a really powerful movie about soldiers who are forced to serve tours of duty in the war even after they've been once. Stop-Loss explores the emotional and physical turmoil and the situations that soldiers as well as their families endure when they fight for their own freedom. Stop-Loss has a very talented cast as well with Ryan Phillippe and ..."

After his master dies suddenly, the squire hits the road with his cohorts Roland and Wat. On the journey, they stumble across an unknown writer, Chaucer.

A Very Long Engagement
2 recommendations
"A Very Long Engagment (Un long dimanche de fiançailles) is a film about love, war, and many other things I probably missed. It's a beautiful film with amazing scenery, cinematography, plot (good, even though it's complicated) and acting. The film is about Manche and Mathilde, whom we follow (with digressions) throughout the movie. Manche and Mathilde are engaged, but World War I rips them apart..."

"There's nothing like a good war movie. But 2 great movies by Clint Eastwood? Even better. And the fact that it is a true story makes it a must for my DVD collection."
The Hunt for Red October (Special Collector's Edition)
1 recommendation
"Sean Connery is brilliant as the Russian submarine captain who appears to be a threat to national security of the United States. What his true motives are and how he achieves them are what make the plot so thrillingly unique and the action so deeply emotional."
Pride & Prejudice

"It's Jane Austen. It's beautiful language. It's imagery combined with subtle humor that makes you want to be in love. Why wouldn't you want it?"
Empire of the Sun: Christian Bale
1 recommendation
"Christian Bale is a kid in this movie... and you know he's going to be something when he grows up ... the movie is superb and he is spectacular. Roundly dismissed as one of Steven Spielberg's least successful efforts, this very underrated film poignantly follows the World War II adventures of young Jim (a brilliant Christian Bale), caught in the throes of the fall of China. What if you once had ev..."
Brokeback Mountain [2005]
2 recommendations
"Just a few words to convince you to purchase this film. It's fantastically shot. The acting is blinding - Heath Ledger in particular gives one of the most moving, detailed performances you're likely to see this or any other year - and Lee directs with insight, sensitivity and a precise feel for the emotional undertow that makes this film great. This is a love story, that it's between 2 men is inci..."
