Chinatown - I think I would've enjoyed this movie more if I hadn't been unpacking and cleaning up while I was "watching" it. Though Jack Nicholson before he was well known was cool. Can't really say if I'd recommend it or not.
Witness - This is a great movie. Harrison Ford being a good cop trying to get out of a corrupt system while protecting the kid who saw another cop's murder. Y'all probably knew that. It flows well and has some great scenes that remind you why Ford is a great actor.
Jeff Dunham: Arguing With Myself - Not as good as Spark of Insanity or his new Christmas special, but still pretty amusing. This was prior to Achmed the Dead Terrorist, but while he was still using Sweet Daddy D, so it definitely has its moments.
The Untouchables - Any movie with Sean Connery and Andy Garcia as cops has got to be awesome. This is quite good. It follows the story of Elliot Ness (Keven Costner) and his attempt to take down Al Capone (Robert De Niro) in Chicago. It's well down and pulls off the period piece well.
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer - Man, this movie has so much wrong with it. Now, I was never a reader of either Fantastic Four OR the Silver Surfer, so I don't know how accurate this story is (not that you REALLY have to worry about accuracy with a comic book movie). But it has a bad plot mixed with blah acting and copious amounts of product placement (to the point where their flying car has Dodge logos all over it and claimed to have a Hemi). I'd avoid it unless you're a diehard FF fan or are just trying to see all the Marvel films.
12 Monkeys - Oh, I love movies like this, where they show you the end of the movie at the beginning, but none of it makes sense because you don't know the characters or location yet, and the rest of the movie slowly pieces it all together. Also the distopian view of the future is kinda crazy. What is it with Bruce Willis and sci-fi epics? Also, Brad Pitt in one of his most amusing roles since Tyler Durden. Check it out.
