Brazil (IMDB - 8.0) - currently on iplayer, a rather disturbing combination of secret state and comical eighties retro future. I think certain members of this forum are already sufficiently paranoid of the state though!

Some I've watched/re-watched in the recent past:

The Constant Gardener
L'instinct de mort
L'ennemi public n°1
Matchstick Men
Hitler: The Rise Of Evil
From Paris With Love
Edge Of Darkness
Rendition
Office Space
Cube
Flickan som lekte med elden (The Girl Who Played With Fire)
Sweet Sixteen
Soldiers Of Conscience
Adaptation
A Sense Of Freedom

Airplane - A classic comedy, filled to the rafters of one liners. Unfortunately that still of writing seems to have disappeared if we look at recent films of the same vein as of Airplane. 8/10 (9/10 if you have had a crappy Monday)

Captain Oveur: Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?

Saw prince of persia - sands of time, last weekend, not too bad really, quite funny at times too.

Lmao, that and The Sequel are so very rewatchable, and nowhere near as forced as some similar cases after them

Did I miss a sarcasm tag somewhere..

If you expect a sugar-coated happy ending... you will be disappointed...

If you want to see a film that makes you laugh without your having to stop thinking, go and watch it. It is definitely entertaining and gives you food for thought at the same time.

quite possibly the first movie of its kind that wont inspire tons of internet art for there is no nudity left to imagination
also quite good even though the ending seems a bit tacked on just for the sake of getting a few horror elements into the movie without any real point to them

Entertaining, quirky at times. Good fun overall.

I recently watched Airplane! with my lady, as she had never seen it before. The most awkward 90 minutes of my life... she didn't laugh once! I was shocked, and worried that it was my humor that was broken instead of hers, tell me it isn't so!

Operator: [Captain Oveur is on the phone with the Mayo Clinic] Excuse me, Captain Oveur, but I have an emergency call on line 5 from a Mr. Hamm.
Captain Oveur: Alright, give me a Hamm on 5, hold the Mayo.

Everytime I re-watch that movie I have forgotten that line, and it gets me again every time

Primary Colors
Rope
Shutter Island
Charade

Tbh if it was me....we would be having "That Talk" and she would have to have a lot going on for the relationship to keep going.

Valhalla Rising, it came across as a mix of Aguirre, The Proposition and a really bleak Conan the Barbarian in some sort of Nordic folklore setting with a comic book like flow to the story - great camera work and quite a bit of gore at times.

Män som hatar kvinnor (Men Who Hate Women), fairly entertaining crime/mystery flick that's not too predictable/obvious and despite it not being all that complicated or too thought-provoking I found it to be quite involving and with a good pace.

This is the second part, this is the third part (don't know if you already know...).

V for Vendetta

Old but my very favorite movie.

The War Game. A horrible film (its content, not the film making), it's easy to see why it was banned from TV for 20 years.

Quote from amp88 :

Been on a bit of courtroom thing for a while

Anatomy Of A Murder

Just saw Toy Story 3, I highly recommend it.

RW is still a hottie <3

I know it's not a movie as such, but Generation Kill is a must view imo. Great viewing
