Oldboy 2004, R)
Might be my favorite movie ever. Great cinematography, enthralling plot, and Oh Dae Su is an amazing character. Has one of the best fight scenes in history. |

Janghwa, Hongryeon (A Tale of Two Sisters) 2003, R)
I've seen this about eight times, and it never gets old. More eerie than scary with great atmosphere. |

Smilla's Sense of Snow 1997, R)
I'm not sure why I love this movie so much, but it's been one of my favorites for years. It has a very interesting vibe, the acting is fantastic, and Smilla is one of my favorite female characters ever. |

No Country for Old Men 2007, R)
Probably the best movie I've seen all year. Great acting, and the tension is so real that I was wringing my hands through the entire thing. Javier Bardem is officially the scariest man alive. The ending is abrupt, but it made sense and once I'd had a second to absorb everything, I didn't mind the way it ended at all. |

Reservoir Dogs 1992, R)

Chungking Express 1994, PG-13)
Everyone is so charming in this (well, except Blond Wig Woman... seriously, what was so intriguing about her?), and it's definitely the most accessible of Wong Kar Wai's films. I didn't even mind hearing California Dreamin' 80,000 times. |

Night Watch (Nochnoi Dozor) 2004, R)
Very cool. This movie doesn't get enough credit for being awesome. Kind of a dark modern fairy tale with Matrix-esque special effects. |

Wristcutters - A Love Story 2006, R)
Like everyone else has said- it's quirky, funny, charming. It made me happy. I liked the music. I think I have a crush on Patrick Fugit. It reminds me a little of Dead Man and Everything is Illuminated. |
