One of my all-time favorites is The Usual Suspects with Kevin Spacey. If you like who-done-it type, this one keeps you guessing. I am a HUGE fan of M. Night Shyamalan....The Sixth Sense, Signs, The Village.

I also enjoyed these to name a few:

Spy Game

Enemy of the State

Pay It Forward

Mystic River

Fools Rush In

Meet the Parents

Son-In-Law

I loved the usual suspect. Great film, he was great in it. M.night is a good director. I liked unbreakable, sixth sense and the village. I am slightly interested in his new movie.

What about Forrest Gump? I think that movie was probably the best in every way. It deals with so many issues and so many trials, all wrapped up in a package of simpleness and sincerity!!! Now, where's that DVD?

Man, I am a movie lover - I have seen sooo many and repeat the ones I like over and over...it drives my hubby MAD!!!

BTW, I have a bunch of movies to add to my ever-growning Netflix Queue...thanks bunches!

I think my favorite Kevin Spacy movie ever is American Beauty. sigh. Something about that movie....I tried to watch it the other night when this thread started, and my old VHS copy was all messed up! Grrr!

I just watched a new movie called LolliLove the other night, it was made by the girl who plays Pam on the Office...Jenna something, anyway...it was quite funny. Well, if you like wierd mockumentries.

American beauty was a great film. I saw it in the theater. He truely pulled off that dirty daddy character. The ending was so intense. When you see a movie that starts out as one thing and everything comes together at the end just to throw u a kick like that ending can shake you. Great Film. How about Say Anything? I really loved that film when I was a kid and still do. The scene with the boom box. Wow! It always makes me love John Cusak more than I already do. Does anyone like Irish and British actors? Intermission is a great film. Colin Farrell and Cillian Murphy are both in this film. I have to say, I love Independent films, and am a sucker for a great director.

Everything Kathy473 listed! I could go to the movies with you! I totally LOVE vampire movies. They are my all time fav. Blade is my hero. I really enjoyed Crash. I love Anthony Hopkins, he is one of my favorite actors, I loved him in The Edge. Johnny Depp is just total eye candy so I have to see whatever he does. Sling Blade is another I really like. I actaully really like Billybob Thorton, I think he is a great actor. Bad Santa is one of THE funniest off color movies I think I have ever watched....still cracks me up.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
