Broken Flowers 2005,  R)
Broken Flowers
Every single shot in a Jim Jarmush film is highly considered. every sound that you hear is meticulously selected. Each movie of him is something special that you must experience it by yourself. then its all on your personality whether you admit it or dislike it. you are always left by your own when you watch a Jim Jarmusch film and he always considers his addressees as someone intelligent.
He is one of the kind.
And about Bill Murray in the movie, he is just amazing. only his face and looks are enough to convey everything.
Dont miss this experience!

Save the Last Dance 2001,  PG-13)
Save the Last Dance
I watched it twice in 1 day. The movie is perfect I think. There is no scene that you can "fast forward" it and dont wanna watch it again. The screenplay is a simple realistic story (still interesting enough), but Its the direction which is outstanding and makes something great out of the movie.
The movie is pleasant, motivating and inspiring. Tierd of living in the fantasy world, I realy needed someting this real and factual to promote the sense of working and trying and doing the best, in me.
The soundtrack is exciting and well-chosen (lots of good hiphop tracks). The dance scenes are cool and Julia Stiles is the man!

Lost Highway
Something wicked this way comes!
Watching the movie try Not to guess anything cause you cant.
18
Being John Malkovich 1999,  R)
Being John Malkovich
So how does the Malkovich body make difference when its Schwartz's mind which controls it? I cant get it why Craig Schwartz should be the total loser when he is as artist as Malkovich is. What makes Malkovich, Malkovich and Schwartz, Schwartz?
Anyway, its a must be seen movie with a who-can-makes-it-more-complicated Kaufman's screenplay.
I just wonder what Spike Jonze is so busy with that he cant make or act in more movies. I really like him as an actor too. Have you seen Three Kings?
19
The Dark Knight 2008,  PG-13)
The Dark Knight
In the movie the Joker says: "This town deserves a better class of criminals.", so do movies from now on.
No doubt that The Dark Knight is the director's movie and Christopher Nolan has done a very good job and gets a lot much credit for writing and directing this masterpiece (yes it's a masterpiece, didn't I tell it yet?) but the key part of the movie success is Heath Ledger's stunning performance as the Joker. This is No-Method maniac the way he plays. He elevates the standard of acting to a higher level.
Beware of this sinister joker guy he has no rules and carries out some "social experiment" during the movie to prove deep down inside everyone is as evil as him. He is not simply "sadistic". He has his own philosophical attitude. He calls himself "agent of chaos" which is the consequences of Batman's (the good decent person) efforts to clean up the city. Although the lines are written for him by the script writers but it's Heath Ledger's breath-taking unbelievable performance which makes this comic book character alive and believable.
And I just want to mention Christopher Nolan's great deed to create such a dark-dark world of a comic book story and makes it almost realistic.

L.A. Confidential 1997,  R)
21
X-Men 2000,  PG-13)
X-Men
What a great story! mutation in humans genes and consequently evolution by natural selection! PERFCT idea! on the other hand I found the story resemblant to Harry Potter's! I really love it! and the last but not the least this point that its a Bryan Singer film.
22
X2: X-Men United 2003,  PG-13)
X2: X-Men United
One of the best sequels ever made. X2 is even better than the first movie. The script is more powerful, interesting and integrated. It expands the world of the story, the conflict between Humans and Mutants. Besides new characters are interesting, rich and acceptable.
23
House of Flying Daggers (Shi mian mai fu) 2004,  PG-13)
24
Minority Report 2002,  PG-13)
Minority Report
It was the second movie that when it ended, unconsciously I stood up and clapped hands (the first one was War of the Worlds).
This man, Steven Spielberg, is wonderful. He gets you excited and haunted. He can totally take the control of your feelings.
His movies are MAJESTIC.
He is a master in film making.
In my point of view he is the symbol of America (New World).
25
Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind 2004,  R)
Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind
My friend used to tell me: "Nowadays people go to the movies and say: lets go and watch a Charlie Kaufman film". Now I see! You'de better watch every movie which its writer is Charlie Kaufman (no matter who the director & cast are). "Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind" is really a special interesting movie with Great writing, directing and cast, including Jim Carrey, Kate Winslet, Kirsten Dunst, Mark Ruffalo & Elijah Wood (wow! what more do I ever want?!).
The movie is full of brand new ideas and scenes that you've never seen in no other film. It opens your mind to a different view.
Dont doubt to watch it.

Groundhog Day 1993,  PG)
Groundhog Day
[Plot: One of the acknowledged classics of American comedy, "Groundhog Day" concerns TV weatherman Phil Connors, who is forced to live the same Feb. 2 over and over again until he gains some karmic -- and comic -- insight into his life. ]
Youu see how creative is the story?! it is a real worthful movie. Bill Murray is absolutely shining & Andy MacDawell is exactly the girl that the story needed. same angel smile and that frown when she was sleeping! i realy liked this movie. it shows u how hard u must try (infact impossible) to have a PERFECT DAY. it also shows how many situations of doing good and helping people there is in every simple day.
and just think if there's realy no tomorrow and u have to live today over & over again what a waste of time it is! you must improve yourself and your attitude toward life in order to get to tomorrow. in other words same hinduism belief that one should care about his Karma and do no wrong in order to save his soul and get rid of circles of life.
amazing story. a real good movie with a touching & helpful love story. DOnt mIsS iT! ( its been made 15 years ago!)
