I have seen it twice, and caught a few subtle things in the story the second time that I did not catch the first time. I highly recommend it.
Oh good call! Sin City is SO good! Another comic book movie to check out is The Punisher. Also rather violent, although less so than the actual comic (so hubby tells me), but I was surprised that I liked it as much as I did. I am so not a comic book geek....I just married one.
But both Sin City and The Punisher were good action flicks.

We watched "Hostage" with Bruce Willis last night and I highly recommend it.
It was great!

I also loved "Monster In Law"

Don't know if you already went to the video store or not, but I rented Fever Pitch (Drew Barrymore & Jimmy Fallon) this weekend and it was really good. It's the one with Jimmy Fallon as a huge Boston Red Sox fan.

Ooh Stephanie, Catch Me If You Can is wonderful!


If you like fluffy romantic comedies, I strongly recommend "Love Actually." It stars Hugh Grant (
), Colin Firth (surprisingly
), and Alan Rickman (a HIGHLY underrated actor!) and is REALLY cute!

O-H-I-O!
My grandma bought me "A lot like love" with Ashton Kutcher and Amanda Peet and that movie was SO good
I watched Father of the Bride for the first time in a while and forgot how much I LOVED it!

Naw, I haven't seen the Godfather yet.

I wanted to see Love actually, but never got around to renting it.



I want to see Alot Like Love, but my family thinks it looks dumb
They just don't like Aston Kutcher I think.. ohwell .. too bad for them

Hitch, yes, awesome movie.
Notebook, I am looking forward to renting it, everyone says how good it was.
Saw, it's a weird "make you think till the end" horror, which I found disturbing in a delicious sort of way. Horrors really don't scare me anymore, but this was freaky! Don't know names of actors in it.
I do not recommend Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy...IMO...what a waste of time and money!!!
March of the penguins looks good, cute.
If you tell what kinds of movies you like, I can help you more.

Neverending Story and Princess Bride are two of my all time favorites, as well as Willow, Legend, or if you're into dragon-y stuff, Reign of Fire was great (Matthew McConnohey (sp?) )was awesome in that one, and I also loved A Knight's Tale, with Heath Ledger. I love fantasy movies, if you couldn't tell!!
