Find me on Netflix

Kung Fu Panda - Couldn't go wrong with that cast.
Venus - Fantastic. O'Toole's a genius.
The Time Traveler's Wife - A really good surprise. Cool.
The Hurt Locker - Very good, but not as tense as I expected
Rescue Dawn - a credit to the actors, but the story isn't true
The Soloist - two actors at the top of their game
Tropic Thunder - "You never go full retard."
Milk - very good
Intolerable Cruelty - some good moments
Ninja Assassin - ninjas = awesome
Couples Retreat - fairly funny
The Wrestler - didn't finish, will astonish with its skill, but not your empathy
(500) Days of Summer - good movie, great soundtrack
Once - understated and satisfying
The World's Fastest Indian - Very cool
Rebel Without a Cause - dated
Coraline - Wonderfully odd
Role Models - Funny!
The Hangover - Freaking hysterical.
The Flying Scotsman - Very good, with a few actors I really like to boot.
Wings of Defeat - watch this
The Great Escape - on the big screen! Cool.
Medicine for Melancholy - fixies, SanFran, and a solid love story
Anatomy of a Murder - Really good - in some ways much better than new courtroom dramas

Yes, I'm kidding myself. Curiousity, though...
