Pushed to the breaking point by her artistic director and a seductive rival, Nina's grip on reality slips, plunging her into a waking nightmare.I was dragged to this movie by my wife, felt dirty for watching it...Although I do appreciate some "chick flicks" this one was just way out in left field for me...5/10
- DirectorMichel GondryStarsJim CarreyKate WinsletTom WilkinsonWhen their relationship turns sour, a couple undergoes a medical procedure to have each other erased from their memories forever.Jim Carrey should not be playing serious roles...almost as bad as Number 23...5/10

Should have been done more like Sleepy Hollow...6.5/10
- DirectorMartin ScorseseStarsRobert De NiroJodie FosterCybill ShepherdA mentally unstable veteran works as a nighttime taxi driver in New York City, where the perceived decadence and sleaze fuels his urge for violent action.Although it is from the 70's, Scorsese's should have made DeNiro's character more on the psychotic side...6/10

MacyFrances McDormandSteve BuscemiMinnesota car salesman Jerry Lundegaard's inept crime falls apart due to his and his henchmen's bungling and the persistent police work of the quite pregnant Marge Gunderson.Although the Coen brothers have mastered the art of cinematography, just a little too slow for me.

- DirectorQuentin TarantinoStarsHarvey KeitelTim RothMichael MadsenWhen a simple jewelry heist goes horribly wrong, the surviving criminals begin to suspect that one of them is a police informant.Still a great movie, but ranked higher than the Kill Bills, and Jackie Brown which I thought were a lot better...7.5/10
- DirectorDavid FincherStarsBrad PittEdward NortonMeat LoafAn insomniac office worker and a devil-may-care soap maker form an underground fight club that evolves into much more.Excellent movie, Norton, Pitt, and Bonham Carter all did a fantastic job...Just tired of the schizophrenic climaxes...7.5/10
