By Dawns Early Light (Powers Boothe)
A Scanner Darkly
Perfect Sense (Eva Green/Ewan Mcgregor ....sadder and more profound than any story about disease run amuck than I have ever been exposed to...also, horrifying to imagine as a real crisis)
Man Som Hatar Kvinnor (..men who hate women)
Felon (Stephen Dorff)
The Dark Knight (Heath Ledger...this movie defines what a great and terrible adversary should be in contrast to a hero...someone who could actually defeat the hero in mind and body.
the misinformed and presumptuous seem to think heaths death is the catalyst for the acclaim, that isn't so...its a performance that is so absorbing that it transcends the actors, there is no heath here, only his character...only the joker)

Green Card (Gérard Depardieu)
The Butterfly Effect
The Town (Ben Affleck / Jon Hamm)

Red Corner (Richard Gere)
Stir of Echoes (Kevin Bacon)
Stanley and Iris (Robert Deniro)
Savior (Dennis Quaid) (sorrow and horror)
The Ghost and the Darkness (lions and tigers, oh my !)
The Prophecy (Christopher Walken.....first 3 include him, and make an interesting and surprising story together, the 4th and 5th do not include him, and though having plenty potential, unfortunately only the 4th feels fullsome, the 5th kind of runs on fumes of the 4th...gratuitous tit shot says it all, and Satan didn't have enough to do in either the 4th or 5th, a complete waste, of a bottomless character).
A Shot through the Heart (Linus Roache / Vincent Perez)
Apollo 13 (when NASA had some street cred)
The Emporer and the Assassin (absolute power corrupts absolutely)
Formosa Betrayed (James Van Der Beek.....insight into the fate of China's exercise of power, against it's own people....implicitly optimistic...and good to see a principled FBI agent doing right, for the sake of justice and human decency)
Great Expectations (Ethan Hawke)
Wild Things (never thought this would be any good....I love to be surprised)
Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story
Leaving Las Vegas (hard to watch)
The Fourth War (Roy Scheider and Jurgen Prochnow)
Prime (Gwyneth Paltrow)
Whale Rider (a beautiful story)
Transformers (Shia Lapoof :)
(unbelievable visuals that put terminator II to shame...incredible rendering of giant sentient robots...would have been a classic/masterpeice if the studio invested about 1 or 2 mill, on a dialog specialist, of the 150+ they spent......7/10.
In the second installment things go into high gear visually and low gear every other way, between shia's spiritual vision with robots so hillariously fucking stupid I couldn't help but burst into laughter, to battle scenes in the desert that quickly become tiresome and more a joke than thrilling, even the would-be delight of megan fox eye-candy is ruined with her plastic skin, fish lips, and utter character uselessness (another hollywood success story of defiling female beauty), make this a 6/10 for the visual smorgasbord, and 1/10 for the rest...in all, the michael bay experience at its best.
Part 3, had more of the good and the stupid, basically part 2 done much much better.
Hopefully, if they continue with the story they will kill off mr. lapoof as they did with megan and solely go the robot drama and action route, maybe then it will redeem itself, the human characters have too much screen time, I don't care about them at all.....or as hollywood is so fond of reboots....there's always that route.
