"If you want to see an interesting gangster film, this is it. It's a great film. Stars Sam Jackson before he started doing every script under the sun. This is a film I recommend to everyone. See it."

| 98 92% | Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) - Rated 17 Nov 2009
"I don't think there is a better movie made in the last 30 years. It is brilliant in every aspect. I know I want to see more films of this caliber."

| 95 76% | The Matrix (1999) - Rated 17 Nov 2009
"An almost perfect film. They should have just stopped with this one. It operates on several levels, as a shoot-em-up with great special effects, as a compelling story, and as an occasion to think philosophically about the nature of desire and how often what we have to overcome is ourselves."

| 85 26% | Contact (1997) - Rated 17 Nov 2009
"A little bit of a let down with the special effects and the ending, but a captivating idea and some good cinematography. It was one of the movies that really stayed with me a long time, made me think about the structure of knowledge, how we know what we say we know and how we give an account of that. It's a kind of argument for postmodernism."

| 95 76% | The Big Lebowski (1998) - Rated 17 Nov 2009
"The last time the Cohen brothers were funny. Brilliant film. One of the best comedies I have ever seen."

| 90 57% | The English Patient (1996) - Rated 17 Nov 2009
"When I first saw this film I loved it. It was haunting and poetic and full of great, lasting images and a sense of longing, always longing for something just out of reach. Not sure I would feel the same way seeing it again, but still. "I am writing to you in the dark" --just lovely."

| 88 42% | Apocalypto (2006) - Rated 17 Nov 2009
"Convincing. Thrilling. Tense. Like falling down a big cliff on a rollercoaster."
|
| 90 57% | Dogville (2003) - Rated 17 Nov 2009
"Lars von Trier is one of those directors I can't say I love, but I deeply respect. Dogville is a damn tough movie to watch, but it's brilliant and though it's long, it's just worth it."
|
| 90 57% | Lost Highway (1997) - Rated 17 Nov 2009
"It's hard to find another director who does this kind of strange surreal, shockingly vivid images of Americana. Lynch makes the movie seem like we got to step to the side a bit and see what is going on just outside of the typical perspective."
|
| 50 3% | The Dreamers (2004) - Rated 17 Nov 2009
"A terrible, slovenly movie, overcome with affection for the kids in front of the camera in the full bloom of their youthfulness. It's just downright boring and tiresome and I truly wanted to just leave in the middle."
