In Bruges was great. Another charmer.

I had free tickets to see In Bruges.
What started as a minor headache earlier in the day began to affect my vision by the time I got into the cinema. I had to walk out and go to bed. My housemate at the time enjoyed it though.

The House of Yes
Parker Posey is a mentally ill young lady, and when her beloved brother brings home his new fiancee to meet the family, she is not amused. A very, very dark comedy. And Tori Spelling is in it too! Originally a play, so the pacing is very long scenes with fantastic back-and-forth dialogue. One of my very favorite movies of all time. Note: don't read too much on the IMDB page, there are spoilers in the Quotes section. Trust me, just watch the movie. |

I like Parker Posey too.
She was hilarious in Best in Show, which might be too well known to be in this thread but I think it's one of the best comedies around. |

The House of Yes is available for streaming from Netflix. I've added it to my queue.

Kung Fu Hustle is one of the cleverest chop socky movies I've seen. (and far superior to Shao-Lin Soccer, incidentally)
The Machinist - Christian Bale, super creepy, you don't know where it's going until it gets there.

Ditto. A must see nonetheless.

Kung Pow: Enter the Fist is a movie I had to watch twice before I really appreciated it.
Here's the description from Netflix: Quote:

I always thought Gattaca got a rough go.
Of course, in my mind, with Uma Thurman, Ethan Hawke, and Jude Law... it had me at hello! But I really like the film. |

21 Grams
Again, it had me at hello with Naomi Watts and Benecio Del Toro. And Sean Penn isn't too shabby either. |

Brain Candy by the Kids in the Hall was pretty funny. But, of course, I was high when I saw it.
The Girl Most Likely To with Stockard Channing was funny.
