Which Good Movie Have You Seen Recently?

Also, if no one's suggested it yet, I highly recommend The Assasination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.

I'd like to hear more input on this movie. My family HATED this movie with every fiber of their being, and they love movies and rarely berate a movie, let alone fall asleep through one. I wouldn't mind if someone told me they're crackheads for feeling that way, but I'd like to get more opinions on it.

One of my favorites. I liked Snatch too.

Yes, excellent movie. Somebody mentioned Layer Cake earlier - along the same style, also a good movie.

Admitedly, the movie can be slow at times. What I liked about it is how it made me feel about the two main characters at any given time. I went from sympathizing with Jesse James and hating Ford to vice versa and back again. As the title pretty much states, the movie is solely about these two people and the story told tends to be very character driven rather than action driven. If you want a good old-style western, this isn't the film for you. It's more of a historical-documentary (well, by the writer's history anyway, I'm not trying to start a debate on this movie and it's true historical relevance) with well-paid actors.

I saw Dark Knight a few weeks ago, not that anyone doesn't know this, but it was great. What I didn't like was Tropic Thunder, and I normally LOVE Ben Stiller movies so it was a bit saddening. Oh well.

Watched Pineapple Express tonight.. meh. Watched about 15 minutes of Burn after reading and it looks good. Gonna catch it again when I got more time.

this thread has turned into "movies I watched 5 minutes of that I might like if I get to watch it later."

Meh I started to watch it at the theatre and was getting into it when I realized I wouldn't be able to finish it tonight so I bailed. Certainly going to catch it and Step Brothers.
