Rocky is the definitive sports movie and Sylvester Stallone’s greatest work. Every boy must see this as a rite of passage into manhood. Adriaaaan!
Action
The Men Who Stare at Goats
This fast-paced, witty and smart blend of the Star and Iraq wars is one of the best military satires to date.
Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant
An interesting story that doesn’t really deliver on its potential, this one may get in on the big vampire train making its way through pop culture, but its inability to find itself is disappointing.
Beowulf
This was never going to be a classic but it’s got a timeless story, great animation and is a fun watch to be taken with a pinch of salt.
American History X
This excellent analysis of White Supremacists in Los Angeles in a gripping story that entertains, teaches and avoids preaching.
Whiteout
Whiteout could’ve been a taut, suspenseful crime thriller, but instead, it’s a lot of bad dialogue and dull mystery that leads up to a lackluster climax — but the snow is pretty.
