I'm curious. Plus I want ideas of movies to rent.

What is the best newish movie you've seen recently?

I would have to say: Wanted (with Angelina Jolie).... was a good movie IMHO.

I liked Twilight... I wouldn't say it is brilliant, but pretty entertaining, IMO.

I'm gonna go with The Visitor. Richard Jenkins starred in it and he was up for best actor. I highly recommend it!

I really liked Wanted too. Another great action movie is Eagle Eye.

It really depends what kind of movie you are in the mood for.

I watched "Changeling" this week and it was pretty good.

Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist was cute as well, if you're OK with smart teen romantic comedies.

Slumdog Millionaire, hands down.

Other great ones I've seen include The Reader, Revolutionary Road and Gran Torino.

I just watched Slumdog Millonaire last night, and loved it. Great movie, very moving and entertaining. Now I have the theme song stuck in my head!

Thank you! I was getting sad no one had seen it! Or at least wanted to recommend it.

Coraline was good - the book was better [isn't it always?] but the 3D thing was pretty cool!

No question...Slumdog Millionaire. It was just awesome!

I also rented The Secret Lives of Bees last night, and I loved it, too. But then, I loved the book, and I love Queen Latifah in just about anything she's done.
