Avatar
I'm a sucker for "aliens as the good guys" movies. lol. Plus...it really is absolutely beautiful. It's filmed so it looks 3D even on a regular t.v. Ah....I'm caught again by "oooooo, shiny!!"
13
Fight Club 1999,  R)
Fight Club
edward norton's acting coupled with brad pitt's body and a killer plot make for a great movie. ;)
14
Wanted 2008,  R)
Wanted
Pure action. I couldn't take my eyes off it. It's got car chases that rival the Bourne or Transporter movies, bullets colliding in midair in slow motion, and superhuman Neo-like fighting. There's a fair amount of blood, and lots of violence, but the gore isn't too bad. Overall, the plot had no surprises, but I adore Angelina Jolie, and I've been a fan of James McAvoy since I saw "Rory O'Shea Was Here"...so I might have a biased opinion. ;)

National Treasure
don't blink...it's so fast-paced you might miss something.
21
Iron Man 2008,  PG-13)

robert downey jr. is PERFECT for the role of stark. he's sarcastic, funny and moving all at once. this is such a good movie....action, romance, amazing special effects...you really root for stark.
22
Silent Hill 2006,  R)

32
Gladiator 2000,  R)
33
P.S. I Love You 2007,  PG-13)
P.S. I Love You
I spent this movie either laughing, or crying. True, it's very much a sappy sweet "chick flick", but I still think it's very good. On par with "the Notebook." It doesn't help that Gerard Butler's accent makes me swoon. ;)
34
Lucky Number Slevin 2006,  R)
35
The Salton Sea 2002,  R)
The Salton Sea
i love this movie. i've known tweekers (meth users, and for that matter, coke/crack users), and this isn't too over-the-top in it's portrayal. val kilmer is perfect as the main character, and it's one of vincent d'nofrio's best/most unique roles outside of "law and order."
36
Shrek 2001,  PG)
Shrek
my hubby and i ARE shrek and fiona. ;)maybe that's why i like it so much. seriously though it's funny! and a great kid flick, too.

a real tearjerker.
55
Requiem for a Dream 2000,  R)
Requiem for a Dream
a non-stop ride into the hell that is hard-core drugs. great cinematography. clutches my stomach and heart and twists. i was hooked on prescription uppers for about 4 months years ago, so this movie hit me especially hard. this movie slapped me upside the head and made me realize how badly my life and my health were falling apart.
56
The Count of Monte Cristo 2002,  PG-13)
The Count of Monte Cristo
the ultimate revenge story.
57
Death Race 2008,  R)
Death Race
It's pretty as all heck...definitely an improvement on the original as far as special effects go. It's non-stop action eye-candy. Lots of car stunts and explosions. My main issue with it is that I kept thinking hmmmmm....Frank, kicking butt, and driving a wicked cool car...connection to "the Transporter?" ;)
58
Immortality (The Wisdom of Crocodiles) 2000,  R)
Immortality (The Wisdom of Crocodiles)
Is he evil, or merely trying to survive? Does he know love...can he?

this is the movie that made me take ashton kutcher seriously. it's many plot twists keep this sci-fi horror flick interesting.
62
I Say Nay Nay 2005,  Unrated)
I Say Nay Nay
I actually fell of the couch laughing.
63
Gran Torino 2008,  R)
Gran Torino
This movie is amazing. Clint Eastwood is perfect in his role.
64
Slumdog Millionaire 2008,  R)
Slumdog Millionaire
It's so very good. It played my emotions like a talented musician strokes the guitar strings. Less poetically, my attention span is that of a four year old, and I sat and watched Slumdog all the way through. You must watch this movie.
65
9 2009,  PG-13)

Disturbing. Stunning. Surreal. Spectacular!! Definitely not a movie for kids.

Hellboy 2004,  PG-13)
Hellboy
ron perlman is perfect as hellboy
75
Hellboy II: The Golden Army (Hellboy 2) 2008,  PG-13)
Hellboy II: The Golden Army (Hellboy 2)
I think this one is even better than the first. Ron Perlman is perfect as Hellboy. del Toro's vision is beautiful! It really adds something to the Hellboy world that was missing in the first movie.
76
Kick-Ass 2010,  R)
77
Juno 2007,  PG-13)
Juno
once i gave this movie a chance, i really loved it. the humor is dry, witty, and fast. although it deals with a controversial subject, the humor doesn't seem to downplay reality.
78
The Dark Knight 2008,  PG-13)
The Dark Knight
This movie is good. Really good. I think Ledger took the show...just completely stole it from Bale. Ledger played a very convincing, very scary psycho. I'm not just saying that because it was his last performance before he died. I was surprised at Aaron Eckhart's performance, as well. I've seen him in so many funny roles, it's odd to see him play a more serious character. I like Maggie Gyllenhaal, but I'm not so sure she's quite right in this. Overall, it's never boring. Strong story. Leaves you wondering what they'll do next, without feeling cheated.
79
The Boondock Saints 2000,  R)
80
Ratatouille 2007,  G)
81
Clerks 1994,  R)

86
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street 2007,  R)
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
i've never seen johnny depp look more demonic. he and helena do such a supurb job! sacha baron cohen sings, too! i never would have guessed any of them had the talent. i was surprised...i actually loved the music...especially depp's "my friends". it's definitely a classic "gothy," beautiful, dark tim burton film. all the elements...cast, music, set, costumes (and i love helena's dresses)...come together perfectly to make for a really unique musical, and i don't like a lot of musicals. definitely check it out! not for kids though, as it is morbid, a bit violent and bloody.
87
Doom 2005,  R)
88
Identity 2003,  R)
Identity
hell of a twist
89
2012 2009,  PG-13)

92
Hugo 2011,  PG)
Hugo
Great characters, fantastic acting, intriguing plot, very moving yet a few laughs thrown in. Much better than expected, and no matter what kind of movies you like, I definitely recommend checking "Hugo" out!
93
X-Men Origins - Wolverine 2009,  PG-13)
X-Men Origins - Wolverine
Non-stop action. There seem to be a few discrepancies between the comics and the movies...but there always are. No big deal to me. Hugh Jackman is perfect, PERFECT as wolverine. Strangely honorable, tortured, often angry and smokin' hot. ;) I also approved of Taylor Kitsch as Reme....I didn't think I would. Ryan Reynolds pumped a LOT of iron for this movie....wow! Excusing the cat-like leaping he did, Liev Schreiber enthralled. Danny Huston was also excellent. Good movie!
