Anything with Denzil Washington in. Fantastic actor and I can't think of a film of his that I've seen and haven't enjoyed, there might be an older one or two that I haven't seen that aren't good but I don't know them.


Try.....

Fallen
Man On Fire
DejaVu
Flight
Two Guns

And that's just for starters!

The film Deja Vu. I think I may have seen that before. Can't be certain though.

Harold and Maude, great dark comedy
Life is Beautiful, sweet, funny, film that gets very bleak
Also the French film about a rich paralysed man and his black assistant, just superb (forgot the name sorry!)

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

Forget everything. Whiplash is the only film you need.

 

[Dick Head]

Time of the Gypsies

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Some great films have already been mentioned but shame on NSC for getting this far into the thread without mentioning the single greatest film of all time- BATTLE ROYALE

 

[Ludensian Gull]

A Beautiful Mind. A remarkable story of a mathematics genius with Schizophrenia, played by Russell Crowe.

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

A Beautiful Mind. A remarkable story of a mathematics genius with Schizophrenia, played by Russell Crowe.

That is a very good call. Watched it for the second time recently and it made me cry like a girl.

 

[Bald Gull]

Harold and Maude, great dark comedy
Life is Beautiful, sweet, funny, film that gets very bleak
Also the French film about a rich paralysed man and his black assistant, just superb (forgot the name sorry!)

Untouchable - best thing I've seen recently

 

[T.G]

Only because you haven't yet seen Saving Ryan's Privates.

Or even Shaving Ryan's Privates

 

[Leekbrookgull]

Depends what your interests are ? However try Local Hero.

If you don't enjoy it or think it might be a little overrated then you've watched it wrong and should start again immediately.

Shaun of the Dead.

Prefer Hot Fuzz which makes me laugh for so many reasons.

Galaxy Quest - spot on Star Trek (or strictly speaking Trekkie) parody.

And recently "Paddington" and "Sean the Sheep the Movie".
