1	Fight Club 1999, R)
2	The Departed 2006, R) The Departed is made by Martin Scorsese, who has made numerous classical action movies, i.e. Casino and Goodfellas. The Departed will also go in the history as a classical movie, and the chances for this are even more increased when it won Oscars. The movie is inspired by the South-Korean flick ?Infernal Affairs? and the life of a previous Boston-based gangster who is at number two on FBI?s most wanted list. The story deals around some characters, and there are among others two characters which makes the story intense. These two characters are Leonardo and Matt Damon?s roles, which are playing under covers. One of them working for the mafia gangster and the other one for the police. he story is well told with fast dialogues and nice execution. I think people will like more of this movie when they watch it next time, because multiple stories are told parallel with fast clips. This makes some confusion some times, but next time there wouldn?t be any confusion since you know what is going on.
3	Donnie Darko 2001, R)
4	Forrest Gump 1994, PG-13)
5	The Matrix 1999, R)
6	Batman Begins 2005, PG-13)
7	Love Actually 2003, R)
8	American History X 1998, R) The movie was perfect just like earlier. It has great script, great cinematography, acting performances, visuals, story etc etc. So there shouldn?t be any surprise with following rating?

15	Cruel Intentions 1999, R)
16	Gladiator 2000, R)
17	Seven (Se7en) 1995, R) Seven is a classical serial killer thriller, which is ranked among top 100 movies (IMDB). This is the second time I watched it and the experience wasn?t the same it was the first time I saw it. The plot is still interesting, but I observed some faults this time.
18	Gone in 60 Seconds (Gone in Sixty Seconds) 2000, PG-13)

34	Casino Royale 2006, PG-13) watched this one last year at the cinema. Of various reasons, I didn?t have the optimal experience, so I watched it again. The movie was just excellent! Now, I had time to get known to character of James Bond and focus on other non-action elements in the movie.

52	Mystic River 2003, R)
53	Adaptation 2002, R) Great script and really welltold.
54	Spy Game 2001, R) Spy Game is one of my favourite movies! I have watched it several times before, and watched it again today. The story is just so unique compared to typical James Bond kind of spy movies. In addition, it has phenomenal background score. All thumbs up for the director of the movie; Tony Scott.
55	Monsoon Wedding 2002, R)
56	The Descent 2005, R) Many people have comparead ?The descent? and ?The cave? since both of them can be put into scary movie category and both were released almost at the same time. Most of people have liked ?the descent?, which I also do. The movie isn?t just another scary movie, which uses blood, intense atmosphere and sound effects to scare people. It also has drive by human characters and conflicts which give the movie another dimension. I think this is one of the best scary movies I eve have seen, and it let me think about the characters after the movie was finished.
57	Dil Chahta Hai 2001, Unrated) Amazing, cool, touching and stylish youth movie. It?s among one of my favourites, and it still gives me a brilliant watching experienced after watching it for 4 or 5 times. This movie experienced golden jubilee at the cinema, which means it ran at the cinema halls non-stop for over one year! This tells itself how good it is.
