Recommend me some films

[geeza]

I enjoy any films with a good story really. My favourites are lock stock, snatch, shawshank, pulp fiction, casino, butterfly effect.

But good films really, like scum and the one with hells kitchen.

I have recently enjoyed sexy beast and face. Going off big time is on my list of gets but what else is there

edit - I also like almost all war films - full metal jacket, hamburger hill etc

Rise of the foot soldier is a good recent film I think you would like especially as you like brit gansgter stuff
it's hard to recommend as not knowing what you have seen also check out Gangster #1 if you haven't seen that.

 

[Master_X]

Bladerunner - Story wise its confusing but visualy its BRILLIANT!
Chopper - If you like scum
Tigerland - If you like hamburger hill and FMG
Manhunter - If you like killer thrillers
The Warriors - gang movie
Ong-Bak - Muay Thai Martial arts
Man on Fire - Good revenge movie

[Kobrakai]

I haven’t seen Identity but you can’t go wrong with the rest, top notch films!

I actually own all of them except Identity and Hostage.

 

[bakes0310]

These any good:
Rounders
Shoot'em up
Cinderella man
Glory

 

[semi-pro waster]

Rounders

Of your list there I've only see this one that I recall and it is quite good, John Malkovich with a comedy Russian accent, a bit of poker playing and a decent enough story with a strong overall cast - what is not to like.

 

[OpenToSuggestions]

I just seen american gangstar. Its fairly new and very good.

 

[just Scott]

These any good:
Rounders
Shoot'em up
Cinderella man
Glory

All on my list haha. All are excellent. Even though I don't even know how to play poker, I still really enjoyed Rounders. Glory is one of the better war films I've seen, Shoot 'Em Up is one of the better action films I've seen and Cinderella Man is one of the better boxing films I've seen. Also one of Russell Crowe's best films in my opinion.

 

[Neil777]

Zodiac as I've just said in the hd titles thread.

Mullholland Drive

 

[bakes0310]

I've seen and Cinderella Man is one of the better boxing films I've seen. Also one of Russell Crowe's best films in my opinion.

Gladiator my friend

 

[Frame352]

Identity wasn't bad at all. I saw it by chance on a rainy afternoon, and went in knowing nothing about it.

It's a slow burner, if a little silly, but a decent cast keep it ticking along nicely.
