the prestige, the illusionist, the bridge, the queen, half nelson, elizabeth are worth your time.

the rest not so much.

btw all seek out the lives of others. really really good.

elizabeth came out a long time ago, so i don't remember much of it in terms of plot, but you should watch it simply for cate blanchett's performance. she was exactly how i imagine a woman would need to be in order to rule, and rule successfully.

I kinda liked Aeon Flux, even though it's not good. The look is cool, the action is reasonable, and the worst plot point doesn't show up until the end, after you've had your fun.

I had high hopes for The Bridge after reading posts about it on here but I thought it was really boring and lame.

All The King's Men and Elizabeth are both quite good.

the wicker man has pissed off 3 people that I know

bad news bears was good for what kind of movie it is - a degen who asks like a douche to everyone and is somewhat funny

I've heard good things about akeelah and the bee

Aeon Flux sucked, and I say that as the type of person who was really excited to watch Aeon Flux. Just watch The Fifth Element again or something, it's much cooler.

I liked both The Illusionist and The Prestige, but too much magician content can be dangerous to your mental health. I'd pick The Illusionist but it's close.

One movie I have on my DVR:

The Zodiac -- I was looking forward to seeing this in theatres, but never got around to it -- worth my time?

el d,

employee of the month, are you talking about the one with jessica simpson or matt dillon?

the one with jessica looks pretty dumb, but the one with matt dillon was awesome.
