Ive recently watched movies like
Legends of the Fall
Flowers of War
Babel
Drive
Beautiful Mind
The Last Samurai
Movies with a real story behind it, not just for the action but for the meaning behind and lessons to learn from. Life stories and tales as such. I really liked Babel for those of you that watched it, had a combination of everything really. Can you recommend movies like the ones above?
Most movie listed ive already watched and most are actually good! so here ill make a list of movies to watch
Shawshank redemption
No country for old men
Gone baby gone
Fight Club
Money Ball
Take Shelter (had me intrigued the first min. of vid)
Mystery science theater 3000
25th hour

Those are all great films (saw Drive for the first time yesterday), based on those you might like these films if you havn't seen them: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Children of Men Memento Another Earth (could have been better, but it's still worth watching just for the concept) 12 Monkeys Looper (my favourite film of this year) Seven Leon Just some of the top of my head, but I rented The Tree of Life so I'll watch that tonight probably and see how it is.

The Departed Good Will Hunting The Bourne Trilogy (and Legacy if you want, it's not bad.) Se7en The Town American History X Gladiator Shutter Island Warrior Ocean's Trilogy Plenty more but that's a good enough list. And what is Doctor Strangelove like? I've always heard good things but never got around to checking it out. Edit - Just remembered Limitless, just watched that a couple weeks ago and I thought it was great.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] T21095 The Last Samurai. It's the only Tom Cruise movie I like. Also, No Country for Old Men.[/quote] I thought that Jack Reacher was good though I also like Mission Impossible and some of his other films too but I guess Mission Impossible is getting a little overdone and that otherwise Jack Reacher is the best film he's done though I never really took to Last Samurai. I was watching Troy before it though so it might be cos Troy is [i]so[/i] good so I dunno really... And No Country for Old Men is absolutely and utterly brilliant...
