Garden State 459 reviews Zach Braff, Natalie Portman
20th Century Fox, 2004
If I could, I'd give it 10 stars...
+ One of my favorite movies + Great!
I absolutely LOVE this movie. If I were asked to named my current favorite movie, it has to be this film.
The music, the mood of the entire movie, the humor, it all works beautifully. Zach Braff did a wonderful job with this picture. He wrote, directed, and starred in this and that is an amazing ...

The Station Agent 144 reviews Peter Dinklage, Paul Benjamin
Miramax, 2004
You know who you are...
+ Let's have more from Tom McCarthy + When Three Friends Collide
This may well be my second favorite movie ever. Certainly in the top five. Can I explain why? I'm not sure that I can. An attempt: it appeals to the small person inside every single one of us. The one that never quite fits. The one that takes a beating and keeps on ticking. The one that lies down ...

The Chumscrubber 54 reviews Jamie Bell, Camilla Belle
Dreamworks Video, 2006
Dark, Real and Emotional
+ Unexpected delight + Headless in Hillside
A scary look inside the prestine suburbs of California, Chumscrubber shows us what it's like to be a kid in today's society where Bread, Circus and Finncial success are all that matter. The acting is very well done, especially for such young people, and the script is also quite good moving the ...

Y Tu Mama Tambien 308 reviews Maribel Verdú, Gael García Bernal
MGM (Video & DVD), 2002
You must see the unrated version
+ Very Pleased + Great Movie!!! Gael and Diego are cute!
I will not try to add much to the other commenters who have already noted what a great film this is. I only want to suggest that everyone who watches this film sees the unrated version.
The rated 'R' version still includes lots of raunchy sex, but leaves out the most important 5 seconds in the ...

Blue Man Group - The Complex Rock Tour Live 106 reviews Blue Man Group
Lava, 2003
a fantastic concert!
+ Megastar Vs The Complex + Quite a show!
Blue Man Group is a strange experience, I suppose. It's as much theater as rock band, but then what great band isn't as much theater as rock?
This DVD shows a concert tour the group did, rather than a Las Vegas show. So, it's a performance from band to audience, and not so much a comedy and ...

Short Cuts - Criterion Collection 89 reviews Robert Altman, Tim Robbins
Criterion, 2004
This is life...
+ Not a New Edition
One of the greatest compliments you can give to any film done by Robert Altman is that they perfectly represent real life. Nothing about his films are glossed up as is the fashion of almost anything in Hollywood. Every frame and every character has this rich sense of humanity and raw realness ...

Saved! 277 reviews Jena Malone, Mandy Moore
MGM (Video & DVD), 2004
Often overlooked....but so much better than Juno
+ Great service! + AMAZING...
To compare Saved to Juno is probably not fair. After all, Saved deals with an issue outside of teen pregnancy. But while watching Saved, compare it to Juno was all I could do. And kudos to Saved! For me, you kicked Juno's butt! I found this dark comedy consistently funny, a little more ...

Thank You for Smoking (Widescreen Edition) 173 reviews Joan Lunden, Eric Haberman
20th Century Fox, 2006
Laugh and Think
+ Better Than Expected
If you are a smoker watch the film and think,
If you are a non-smoker watch the film and feel as happy as you can and laugh
If your child is a teenager let her watch the film, nothing that the adults tell is enough to give this impression about smoking.
I think this may be a popular film that ...
