1) The Jackal
2) The Matrix
3) Sneakers

Oh BTW, the absolute worst movie I have seen yet is "Unbreakable". IT SUCKS!!!! I would have expected more from Samuel Jackson and Bruce Willis. :(

So.... anybody want to say whether they would like the Matrix without the effects? Well?

I loved the story more than the effects, but I don't think the movie would have made anywhere as much money as it did without the effects. It was just an awesome idea in my opinion and I can't wait to see the sequel.

1. Once Were Warriors.

2. Alien.

3. Exorcist.

The Matrix relied on special effects and totally distorted William Gibson's story.

All the movies mentioned so far are good, heres a few more,

1. Blues Brothers - these guys are so cool!

2. Casino

3. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

4. The Castle

5. Gladiator

Is there a book Jethro? I'd love to read it if there is, I imagine saying I loved the story was the wrong thing to say. I guess it was the idea that I liked more.

Got to agree, The Usual Suspects is a damn fine movie. He was good in American Beauty too. I got dragged along to see that with my ex thinking it was some kind of romantic thing, but it was actually really good.

I just rented "Being John Malkovich" this past weekend. It was pretty cool, but a little over-rated. My fiance hated it. It was worth a couple of laughs.

Wow dennis, you just showed me how many movies I have not seen, I haven't seen any of those, (except some bruce willis and some bond)
has anyone seen Bruce Willis' new movie "Unbreakable"? That was an odd, but good, movie (Samuel L. Jackson's in it too)
