Good mummy story
The story for a modern age mummy movie was good. It combined some comedy along with a little suspense and action to theater. Of course they had to go and make sequels. The first is still the best in the series

Great 3D
Nice ending that leaves you wanting more
Has to be seen in 3D, great story line and was certainly worth the 16 wait!
Think of it as a modern day Pocahontas. What's supising to me is how well it stands up 10 years on

Fabulous retelling of Norse mythology
Neil Gaiman is a genius and his version of Norse mythology is riveting and exciting. It seems to be an important part of our modern culture again so it is only natural that Gaiman brings it back to the forefront. Epic and interesting.

Brilliant
For me this is one of the best animated films out there, and puts so many modern day ones to shame, despite having been made nearly 30 years ago! It's an adventure, so fun and entertaining and full of intrigue. And Totoro is the cutest thing ever.

The premise (although it seems old hat almost 20 years later) was exciting and fresh
The love story between Neo and Trinity is completely unnecessary, and even detracts from the movie as a whole (0 more)
One of the modern classics
  
Pulp Fiction (1994)

1994 | Crime
A masterpiece of modern cinema. Just as brilliant now as it was 18 years ago. A timeless classic, with some of the best dialogue and delivery imaginable.

Well cast and consistently well performed, with an indie feel but endowed with main stream sensibilities. This is a MUST SEE!

A Truly Modern Fairytale
A stunningly breathtaking movie, that takes you on an amazing journey. I was lucky to see this in 3D, as I feel some of the magic would be lost in the 2D version. So lovely to see justice paid to such a beautiful book.

I truly do love this movie. You can't beat the feeling that you got the very first time you saw the dinosaurs in the park! Too bad I can't say the same for JP2 and 3, but Jurassic Park will always be one of my top modern favorites!
