    Default Which Of These Films Would You Recommend?

    Im going with friends to the cinema tomorrow, usually we just turn up and hope something good will be about to start when we get there which is pretty stupid so im looking at their website and this is whats on:

    Failure To Launch
    Ice Age 2
    Shes The Man
    Firewall
    The Inside Man

    As you can see the list is kinda crappy thats why im asking you to tell me of these films and which one is worthy of my money. Any of those films will do as long as its good.

    Cheers (BTW im in a small town in the UK, incase your american and wondering why the list is small with films that came out a while ago).

    The Inside Man was a brilliant film, i'd recommend it, Firewall looks kinda good... i'm reserving judgement on that one though... Ice Age II, yes, if you like childrens animated comedy, Failure to Launch - inane and rubbish humour - avoid at all costs, no idea about She's the Man, never heard of it

    Ill say Inside Man as well, really good movie especially since a Washington and Foster fan. Ice Age 2 is fun...yes its aimed at kids and yes being dragged off by your daughter to see it is annoying but it was amusing and funny in its own way. You'd probably feel foolish going though unless you have a child cause you stand out like a sore thumb saw one guy sitting alone in row ahead of us watching it and it was well creepy heh.

    thanks, ill be seeing The Inside Man then. Shes The Man is about a teen girl stealing her little brothers identity and she goes to his school as him (wearing prosthetics to make her look like him) but then she falls in love with this guy, yeah you can see where this is going

    Inside man has a dream cast and is an astounding movie (If you like action-thrillers).

    He who joyfully marches to music rank and file, has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action. It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder.

    apparently it was based on Twelfth Night

    but i saw inside man on opening weekend, it was the best movie i have seen in a long time
    the only problem i had with it was that it tried to have a deeper plot than it actually needed, and lost some focus as a result.
    but excellent performances and storytelling

    think of this movie more as a character study than as a heist movie

    I saw Ice Age 2 (to this very second I am not sure why on earth I saw that instead of something else). Nothing special there. Not bad, but nothing special

    I've seen none of them, but Ice Age 2 is pretty good for a kid's movie I hear.

    Failing that, there's Silent Hill coming out in two weeks.
    A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider god-fearing and pious. On the other hand, they do less easily move against him, believing that he has the gods on his side.

    Inside Man, though I've never seen any of them.
    Pixar movies tend to be surprisingly good, but less so than a high budget thriller.

    I'd say Firewall, Inside Man, Ice Age. All sound good.

    Inside Man kept me on the edge of my seat. I'd definitely go with that.

    Was firewall with Harrison Ford? If so, you shouldn't since I already forgot about it (had a cool axe-to-back kill in the end though)
