Any Given Sunday (2000)
A frenetic portrayal of life on and off the American Football field, this Oliver Stone picture is fast–paced with snappy dialogue, interesting visual style, good performances from a varied cast, and insight to all the backstage dirty laundry of the sport.
Two for the Money (2005)
Fun and snappy dialogue, with edgy performances by Pacino and McConaughey. Pacino is brilliant as the insidious and hustling employer always playing mind–games, and you will want to watch to see where the plot takes you.
How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2002)
- Surprisingly funny thanks to the chemistry between Hudson and McConaughey, and their snappy dialogue, this is a 21st century rom–com that pushes all the right buttons.
Fool's Gold (2008)
McConaughey and Hudson will always be enough to sell tickets to any romantic comedy, but they aren't enough to save this strange script from the uneven blend of action/comedy/romance elements and poor dialogue.
Rain Man (1988)- A touching story of personal relationships and growth, this has Tom Cruise looking after his sweet but difficult older savant brother brilliantly played by Hoffman. Well worth watching for fans of films such as ‘Forrest Gump’ and ‘I am Sam’.
- DVD
$20$15 
Sleepers (1996)- A great novel that holds plenty of promise at the beginning of the film, this is a drama with plenty of raw emotion, even if it fails to ultimately satisfy.
Changeling (2008)
A surprisingly great drama filled with suspense, mystery, and emotion, this is Jolie's best performance ever. Eastwood is an excellent director who manages to convey feeling with every scene and keep the audience fixated.
No Country for Old Men (2007)
- One of my favourite films of 2007, this is an intense and menacing story making use of all the most successful 'Coen' elements, and one of the scariest bad guys ever portrayed on–screen. "Head or tails: call it."
Blood Simple (1984)- Sinister, although a little slow to get started, this is pure Coen script, with country town villains, murder mystery, suspense, and a thrilling climactic sequence.
Fargo (1996)- A solid suspense with plenty of dark humour, the Coens cement their place in the gritty murder–mystery genre, with steady well–paced storytelling and their own unique visual feel.
