I didn't find it that great. That's not to say it wasn't bad though.

Fair enough.

Not an action film...but I like the humour and the story. I guess it depends what you want in a film too

Cheers

After reading about so many good movies I have to mention a piece of crap that i turned off about four times, then started to watch again thinking it would pick up. spiderman 3 it is a complete waste of time, kirstin dunce and toby meguiar are two of the biggest waste of space on this planet. Avoid pure vomit

All fantastic movies
- Pulp Fiction
- Goodfella's
- Scarface
- Natural Born Killers
- LOTR
- Full Metal Jacket

But the best IMHO is City of God, its a Brasillian movie with subtitles, but this is such a great movie I urge anyone who is into the Godfather/Goodfella's/Pulp Fiction type movies to watch this, it will probably be hard to find but it will be worth it.

A few movies that have really disappointed me are The Godfather, Fight Club and 300, they are all grossly overated.

Yeah that was a good movie. I think it did a good job at portraying the lawlessness and corruption in Brazil. Watching 10 year old kids killing each other with guns was just shocking.

Gee you gotta let us pick more than one!

Here they are not in any particular order
Superbad
Mad Max 1 & 2
Fast and the Furious series
Gone in 60 seconds
Running on Empty
Anchorman
Matrix
Bourne trilogy
Waterboy
Baseketball
Talladega Nights
Days of Thunder
Cars
Ferris Buellers day off

I could go on and on and I'm a big movie fan but I spoze I better not :P

Now, what about a thread for the WORST movie? I can think of two off the top of my head: The Corpse Bride and Hairspray. Both boring as batshit
