Aladdin (1993): Beautiful, smart, stylish, entertaining and all–out brilliant.
Big Lebowski, The (1998): A brilliant cast and a supremely smart, quirky script make for one of the most entertaining and hilarious films ever made.
Moon (2009): Rockwell is astonishingly brilliant, and Duncan Jones\' smart script and direction make Moon someting very special. Oh, and the Kevin Spacey robot is pretty cool too.
True Grit (2010): While the trademark Coen wit is still very much present, it is the performances that carry this simple but well–told story. Damon is perfect and Bridges is exceptional, but its young Hailee Steinfeld who steals the show with a revelation of a performance.
Twelve Monkeys (12 Monkeys) (1996): A perfect mix of intelligent sci–fi, compelling characters, emotional impact and dark, quirky humour and style.
Miller's Crossing (1990): Dark, complex and violent, with classic Coen humour and memorable characters.
L.A. Confidential (1997): An immaculate film with a gripping, twist–filled story. Guy Pearce and Kevin Spacey are highlights of the near–perfect cast.
Hero (2002): A visual masterpiece, with stunning set pieces and fight scenes that are some of the most beautiful ever put to film. Supplemented with a compelling story and great performances from the cast.
Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, The (2007): A majestic masterpiece of a film. Brad Pitt proves his worth as an actor with a haunting, unforgettable performance. Affleck, Rockwell and Renner add their considerable talents to this thoughtful and beautiful film that strikes every note perfectly.
Fifth Element, The (1997): It may not be for everyone, but its style, action, intelligence and heart, make, for me, an incredibly loveable and endlessly entertaining sci–fi adventure.; DVD $19.95
