106: Paranormal Activity

I'm sorry but I'm getting lazy now that my 100 movies are technically watched. Paranormal Activity was creepy and the home video route gave it a realistic feel. I like how the movie starts off sort of slow and slowly builds and builds. It is quite scary, and yes I slept with my lights on the night after I watched it. Overall a very entertaining and creepy movie!

104: Zombieland

EPIC! It was as funny as people said and the gore was ridiculously awesome! I srsly had to look away a few times it was nasty. These people sure know how to make an audience happy... comedy + gore + zombies = blockbuster! The "rules" were a really hilarious touch and I liked that they kept going back to them. Also the slow motion killings was a great touch! So funny.

10/10

96: 500 Days of Summer

I 100% love this movie. I didn't think I would but it was so not at all what I thought it would be. Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel are just SO PERFECT in the roles they play. Joseph was amazing as an naive, unfufilled greeting card writer looking for his soul mate and Zooey was equally great as the on again off again girl that everyone loves without knowing exactly why. Both of them are portraits of real people, with problems and small, tender moments... unlike the majority of romantic films. The music fit the movie perfectly (esp Joesph's dance number, soooo great), the cinematography is stunning and I absolutley love the way the movie skips around between Day 1 and Day 500. Skipping through different days in Tom's life, good and bad, reveals the true disconnected nature of the relationship between Tom and Summer. The ending is bittersweet but in a good way and I'm so happy I saw this movie. :)

9/10

94: Suicide Kings

Winner winner chicken dinner! This movie is one of the best dark comedies I've ever seen. I feel it's severely underated. Christopher Walken stars as the likeable mob boss kidnapped by five guys trying to find ransom money to save one of the group's sister. The twist is unexpected and the acting is all superb. Denis Leary is amazing as Lono, Walken's man, trying to get his boss back. "Me and Mickey will come back for you." I loved his monologue. T.K. and Ira were cool characters, Avery was a little bitch, as were Max and Brett. The funny part was the fact that Walken seemed so much more likable than the supposed "good guys". Great ending, great movie. Seriously funny.

89: Session 9

If you want a scary movie that defies the slasher flick... this is it! Watch it in the dark, but make sure you're not alone.

1. I thought there was a very good intro of characters, and the stories between the characters were very good.

2. The cinematography is RIDICULOUS! There were so many cool shots, odd angles, and interesting ways of filming common scenes. There was an attention to details which created a sense of foreboding.

3. The mental hospital itself is such a creepy setting to begin with, it just sets the mood for the entire film!

4. Definately liked the Cloverfield-esque filming for a couple parts... an interesting feature to the film.

5. The blackouts at random parts were CRAZY and the tense music completely enhanced the entire film.

6. Loved the Se7en style "Monday. Tuesday. Wednesday... etc"

An insanely creepy movie with a great twist and thought provoking ending. Don't watch alone!

86: The Machinist

Ooooh looks like this Christian Bale flick just kicked another (Terminator Salvation) off the Top 20 list! Ouch. First off- the bleak, gray feel of the entire film just set if apart from the very start. As does Bale's shocking appearance. This guy really confuses me sometimes. Some movies he's amazing, and some movies... not so much. The Machinist is definately one of his best performances in my opinion. He really makes the viewer almost understand what Trevor is going through as the film progresses. Some stunning imagery is used, most notably for me is the refridgerator dripping blood which seems beautifully grotesque. The reappearance of crossroads and the subtley emerging hints towards the end of the movie are beautifully done to lead to audience to the ultimate conclusion. The white cell at the end of the movie is another everlasting image. This film feels like a mix between Memento and Fight Club... and that's an extremely good thing!

9/10

75: Children of Men

What stunned me the most about this movie is the absolutley captivating cinematography that depicts such a bleak and dystopian film. The single shot scenes were just amazing to watch and I was holding my breath the whole time. I really connected with the characters which made this movie so deep for me.

9/10

72:

A gruesome portrait of a serial killer. Or is it? Patrick Bateman is the perfect psycho, a wealthy, good-looking, likable businessman... with a seriously twisted side. A look into the vanity of a man who just happens to act out more than the norm, as opposed to someone with some sort of psychological twist, makes this film as good as it is. Driven by ego and fueld by greed, Batemen brutally murders anyone who stands in his way. A scary, revealing movie that I truly enjoyed.

64: Boondock Saints

If you haven't seen this movie I seriously recommend getting off your ass and renting it right now! Honestly, this is one of the most entertaining and memorable movies I have ever seen and it's a classic that needs to be shared. Connor and Murph are so ridiculously kick-ass, likeable, funny... and Irish!

10/10

60: Charlie Bartlett

I heard about people giving this movie a bad rep, but I really enjoyed it! It was cute and memorable and I thought that Charlie was a very likeable character. Anton Yelchin, again, did a great job at creating a portrait of a unique high school kid trying to fit in. Robert Downey Jr. was awesome... I didn't like Kat Dennings so much though. Overall a funny and entertaining movie.

9/10

57: Terminator Salvation

Very cool movie! It was the first look at the "future" in the whole Terminator franchise. It was kind of weird though because Christian Bale played John Connor, but he was literally in the movie for only half the time. The other guy was very good too though and Anton Yelchin was a pleasant surprise.

9/10

55: Role Models

Second time I've seen it but still hilarious! I think I like this one so much because the kids are soooo funny. Ronnie is the best!!!

10/10

52: Field of Dreams

I absolutely LOOOOOVED this movie. Such a beautiful and touching film about baseball, family, and forgiveness. You need to see if for yourself.

10/10

46: Green Street Hooligans

Fantastic movie! It was kind of predictable but I loved the camaraderie and yet the seriousness of the GSE. Sacrificing yourself for another is very powerful. It was well written and well acted. Charlie Hunnam is a ridiculously beautiful man, which certainly doesn't hurt.

43: Star Trek

Yes, I'm a trekkie but this movie was SOOOOO GOOD, even for people who don't adore Star Trek like me! The cinematography, special effects and soundtrack was absolutely stunning. They really created a sense of the unbelievable size of the universe. One of my favorite scenes was when Sulu and Kirk were parachuting on to the drill platform and all you could hear was their breathing. All of the characters were well played and really embodied the originals. Bones, Kirk, and Spock were particularly amazing but Chekov, Sulu, Uhura, and Scotty were all still great! The storyline was well written and I liked the direction they took it… the alternate reality makes it possible to continue to make more movies without conflicting with the originals. A mere prequel would’ve ended up like Star Wars did… totally stupid.

10/10

38: Con Air

I was watching a movie and a character said that Con Air is the best movie ever because "there's Nicholas Cage for the action, John Malkovich for the acting chops, and John Cusack for the gays". Joking aside it really is a funny and kick ass movie, and surprisingly in my top 20.

9/10

37: Scream

This is by far one of the best slasher flicks out there. It's got tongue-in-cheek humor that just makes it SO FUNNY aaaaand it's still scary and unexpected. Dewey is one of the best characters and you really sympathize with Sid throughout the entire trilogy.

10/10

34: Fight Club

Yet another classic... you're really not legit until you see this movie. Totally unexpected even though I’m certain I knew the ending at one point in time. Superb acting by Pitt and Norton… I’d like to see it again now that I know the twist.

10/10

31: Tropic Thunder

Just as good as the first time I saw it! This movie brings so many different types of humor together into one ridiculously funny movie. Robert Downey Jr. is my favorite as "the dude playin' the dude disguised as another dude". All the actors and outrageous caricatures of real Hollywood stereotypes- the serious actor who does anything (and I mean anything) to prepare himself to literally LIVE the life of the role he's playing, the comedian who gets laughs with farts and toilet humor, the dude in the blockbuster action flick... and it's twelve sequels, the rapper turned actor who "LOVES THAT PUSSY... hell yeah", and the guy no one remembers.

10/10

26: Reservoir Dogs

Another classic... you NEED to see this movie to be a complete person. Okay, I'm exaggerating a little but still it is such a great movie. Reservoir Dogs is extremely violent but the way the film is shot and all the separate storylines fit so well together and make it an amazing movie.
