I'm about to watch "Eat Drink Man Woman" (again).
OK, not must see, but 4/5
I didn't see Clockwork Orange (yes really) until just recently so I'll add that, and recommend the former.
For science buffs I cannot recommend Primer enough. You'll need to watch at least twice, best time travel movie ever.
I know its not a movie..But it ends with one ..Firefly Serenity.I'm about halfway through the series and loving it.Top Sci-Fi.Top chicks in it.
Deadwood is another must see (and if you watch it all at once it's like a very long movie)
Crank is a must see. Very fast and non stop action.
Also liked Welcome To The Jungle and Walking Tall with The Rock.
Lords Of Dogtown. Big Wednesday.
Shark Tale is another must see. Heaps funny and I just love Ernie and Bernie
Agree with Greenroom "Crank" is brilliant. Also love "Crash" for a look on life and the modern classic "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels"
A couple of semi-arthouse movies I love - "Delicatesen" and "The cook, the thief, his wife and her lover".
'Death Proof'.. Cars, girls, crazy driving stunts, and gratuitous (but believable, and in some cases completely deserved) violence.
Could only be Quentin Tarantino!
'The Art of War' was quite good too..
shoot 'em up...
best biggest load of unbelievable cr@p ever. so over the top and corny you just can't stop watching it
Down by Law......Jim Jarmusch,Tom Waits ( Not the shoes !)
Can't go past Evil Dead one,two and Army Of Darkness(three).Good wholesome family entertainment.
This is my BOOMSTICK!!
For lots of violence: A Man Apart (which just happens to be on tonight)
For a cult classic: Rambo. Started a whole lot of things copycat wise
Alternatively, Terminator. Very very good for it's time and still watchable today 24 years later. Yes it has been 24 years!
Cop flick that started them all: Dirty Harry. (I only watched it for the first time a few months ago and recognised so many ripoffs in new movies like die hard terminator etc etc. It seems Dity Harry was the originator)
Good flick anyway.
Ripper effects: chase scene in last Matrix film or Terminator 3 chase scene
Best porno: Aah they're all OK.
GREAT choice Richie!
I'll add 'Dead Poets Society'.... If I add 'To Sir with Love' and 'Mr Hollands Opus' I think you will all think I'm crazy.... Great nonetheless!
There are so many my few would be
The godfather
Shawshank redemption
Clockwork orange
No country for old men, The big Lebowski and all the Coen brothers films
There will be blood
Little miss sunshine
American Gangster
The Exorcist
....where do you stop
The quiet American
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind
Raising Arizona
Finally saw Juno on the weekend - very good and as good as the hype for a change.
Ha ha - I saw Natural Born Killers and Clockwork Orange both for the 1st time on a double billing years ago... Clockwork was 2nd and it seemed more like a comedy after Killers. Must have been shocking in it's day but a bit naff and a bit "We all dropped some tabs and thought of a great idea for the rape scene..."
The Departed - with Leonardo and Matt Damon - thought that was brilliant.
didnt mind Blood Diamond also
Apocalypto from Mel Gibson was a visual feast and not too bad a story.
is one person just going through all these posts and clicking the thumbs down button? "whats with all the negative waves???" (donald sutherland at his very best i might add)...
all of the films aforementioned are o.k., but none can mach the cinematic mastery, drama and the performances of woody harrelson and bill murry in the EPIC
KINGPIN!
