Alison Lohman is so hot.

[Jimcs50]

Alison Lohman is so hot.



Yeah, if you like 12 yr olds.

:lol

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

Biel should just stop speaking altogether in movies, especially in period pieces.

Her accent and delivery were awful in the Illusionist.

[Shelly]

Yeah, if you like 12 yr olds.

:lol

I couldn't believe how old she was in real life. She really did look about 15 and according to imdb.com was 22.

I know how old she is, but she looks 12. I have seen more developed 12 yr olds.

:lol

[peewee's lovechild]

Unbreakable.

[BacktoBasics]

Unbreakable.I really wish they could have put together the sequels to that.

[Jimcs50]

The Sixth Sense

[atxrocker]

along with the usual suspects (one of my personal faves), fightclub and identity i need to mention the movie heist with gene hackman. liked it much more than i should i feel.

oh, and donnie darko may qualify as well.

[Evan]

and johnny darko may qualify as well.

You mean Donnie Darko?

[Shelly]

You mean Donnie Darko?

Donnie Darko was a strange movie.

[Jimcs50]

You mean Donnie Darko?

no, donnie's brother, johnny

[JMarkJohns]

To many good ones already said... The Usual Suspects, Momento, Fight Club, Unbreakable.

A few others:

Primal Fear: Sweet, down-home Aaron going all crazy Roy on the DA, then telling Marty the truth - That there never was an Aaron. Great WTF ending that even the director knew how to end with Marty stopping in the middle of the road, with a "WTF" expression coming through loud and clear.

Tin Cup: Could have made it all cliche'... and I actually thought they had the first time I watched it. Instead, the took the ball and ran in an entirely different direction than cliche' and I loved it.

Boondock Saints: The Duke was supposed to be this ravanous killer, sent to off The Saints before they could bring down the Italian mafia. Instead, it turns out he's as psycho religious as The Saints, joining them in their quest to right the worlds wrongs through killing all evil-doers.


There several others, and while I really, really enjoyed movies like The Illusionist and The Prestige, I saw the twist a mile away. The former was a little too Romeo & Juliet from the beginning and Bale's distguised assistant/twin was a little too suspicious for me to assume everything was normal. I really enjoyed both, but I figured each out well before halfway into the films.

The Sixth Sense got me. I thought the Wife was a real bitch for ignoring Willis' character the way she did. However, while I liked it, it wasn't better than Unbreakable. That movie effin' rocks!

Breach & The Recruit. You guys already named all the classics. A named like 4 by himself. Thanks alot A for not letting other people have a chance... :lol

Life of David Gale and Dead Again are two great suggestions. I need to see both again. It's been too long.
