Inside Man: 7/10 I just couldn't get into this movie. Denzel was decent, at best. I was disappointed in this film up until the ending. That was pretty clever...I can't believe I didn't see that coming with the diamond!

A lot of people I know haven't seen Donnie Darko. I guess I meant unpopular. Before The Devil Knows Your Dead - 4/10 The Mist - 7/10
Goodfellas: 10/10 Fuckin' classic. De Niro, Liotta, and Pesci are just awesome. Couldn't be any better.
A Fistful of Dollars 9.5/10 Classic right there. Clint Eastwood at his best. IMO better than The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. Motivates me to get And A Few Dollars More.
I liked the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly slightly more because I thought it was a bit deeper and the story was more complex. I love all three though.
Taxi Driver: 10/10 I just love this movie. De Niro's character is so flawed, yet so amazing. I love De Niro. It's a damn shame is acting prime has passed him. I think this is an incredibly underrated film and can't believe Rocky beat it for Picture of the Year.
Zodiac was awesome. However, I tried to watch it again, and I just couldn't get through it. It's one of those I'd have to wait like 5 years to watch again.
Teeth: 3/10 It wasn't scary, and was pretty boring. Got repetitive and could totally see things coming. Obviously thinking about the idea is interesting for like 5 minutes, then you start watching the movie again and get bored. Saw: 8.5/10 I got to say I enjoyed it. It's a little dark though, it's interesting as everything unravels and seeing the configurations.
The Strangers: 6.5/10 It wasn't good, but it wasn't necessarily bad. I was disappointed because the trailer made it looked amazing. It kind of left you hanging. The ending was pretty weird, too.
American History X: 10/10 I forgot how powerful this movie was. Norton is brilliant, the story is amazing, it's just so real. I would definitely recommend this to anybody who hasn't seen it. Warning though, it isn't for people who are sensitive towards racism and violence.

He says she was ugly in high school but now I'd nail the shizznit out of her.
6.5/10- It wasn't horrible like I'd heard from some people but it wasn't really good either. Daniel Day Lewis was good obviously but outside of that the movie is sort of dull. I'd say see it if you think its "your kind of movie", if you think you won't like it now than I'm pretty damn sure you'll end up thinking it was a huge waste of time.
5/10 Saw this like a week ago, anyways, I thought this movie was pretty dull. The plot wasn't anything great, basically just two guys going around chasing each other for some money, and we never find out what the money was for or where it even came from. The ending was pretty horrible as well. I have no idea why people think so highly of this movie, I personally thought it sucked

I figured there was something about the movie I didn't understand, because I couldn't figure out why people gave it such high ratings. Care to explain to me?
