Cool Movie Recommendations

I'm always interested in seeing cool movies that kind of flew under the radar, so I'm hoping some of you guys can recommend some that I haven't seen.

 

I'll start with a few.

 

Memento (IMDB) - This is one of those movies you really have to pay attention to.  Be careful on reading the summary for this one.  It may give stuff away.

Equilibrium (IMDB) - This one kind of got looked over, because it came out right around the same time as the Matrix and seemed to be kind of a rip off, but I honestly like this movie better.

Dark City (IMDB) - This is one of my favorite sci-fi flicks.

Boondock Saints (IMDB) - A movie about good ol' Irish lads.

Kung Fu Hustle (IMDB) - If you liked old Bruce Lee movies, you'll like this one.

Three O-Clock High (IMDB) - 80's flick about a nerd that gets bullied.

The Count of Monte Christo (IMDB) - A kick ass revenge movie.  One of the few remakes where it is better than the original.

The Beaver (IMDB) - Mel Gibson may be the crazy uncle you never had, but this movie was great.

The Librarian movies (IMDB) (IMDB) (IMDB) - Kind of campy Indiana Jones type movies, but still fun to watch.

watched a new movie the other night called "chronicle"- http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1706593

never heard about it before but was very impressed with the effort considering the 24yr old director and young cast.

also another one of my fav's that alot of people don't know about is "from dusk till dawn" - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116367/

then there's always "Johnny Mnemonic" kind of a prequel to The Matrix

and also starring Keanu Reeves

"Lawnmower Man"

"Thumb Wars" a cool spoof on the Star War series

(just touch your tongue to mine to seal the pact!)

and of course "The Dark Crystal"

a Muppet movie but fantasy based

Ok, I watched the Chronicle last night, and it was decent.  Only part that was annoying was the constant shaky cam.  Reminded me of Blair witch and Cloverfield.
