Sorry to hear you say about Tarantino, Deathproof is one of his finest works IMO, classic Tarantino in every way - can't wait to get the Grindhouse box set and see it in true double bill style with adverts between :) But that's the joy of cinema, it's as personal as music.
And I found the missing one, must be a different issue they have at LoveFilm, missed the follow bit off the title

Serenity was quite good fun - SciFi in the style of Joss Whedon (of Buffy fame)
The Green Mile - classic - can't believe it hasn't been mentioned yet!
I assume you've seen the Matrix?
+1 for Taken, awesome film, gripped me all the way through
Re: Recommend me some films!
I know its an old one, but "Dr.Strangelove" is hilarious.
Re: Recommend me some films!
Inception is a quality film.
So many good films already mentioned.
Re: Recommend me some films!
Thanks guys. Inception is my only high priority movie! And it should arrive tomorrow.
Added the wrestler; seen the rest. Dr S is pretty good; Peter Sellers was a genius.
Re: Recommend me some films!
Watched 'Young Frankenstein' last night, definitely one of Mel Brookes best, much less stupidity than others of his. Witty and well filmed. Also notable for having Marty Feldman - died too young.
Re: Recommend me some films!
Big Trouble In Little China - my all time favourite film .... cheese, but great film ... never get tired of watching it.

Re: Recommend me some films!
Predators is one of the worst movies ever made. Not a single redeeming feature. Awful.
Taken is fantastic.
Otherwise: Scott Pilgrim.
End of thread.

Should have been a one star movie? They have to be truly drivel.
The last time I saw one of those it was the last eclipse movie at the cinema with th ewife. It cost me £20 with popcorn and I have never let her forget it!
Re: Recommend me some films!
Maybe you didn't hear me. I repeat.
SCOTT PILGRIM.
10 STARS. End of thread.

Re: Recommend me some films!
Yeah, Spinal Tap is a good call as well.
Even despite the absence of Ramona Flowers.
Edit: Mmmmmmm... Ramona Flowers.....
