Lots of twists, interesting plot, claustrophobic
Mark Edwards' crime thriller is interesting because there is a massive psychological element to it. At times it is claustrophobic, especially as the protagonist continues to believe her assistant is plotting to overthrow her. While it does become slightly over the top, it's still gripping and engaging.

Cinematography
An epic classic
Everything about this film is top quality, the cast, story, score, cinematography and dialogue. Javier Bardem is immense as the icy cool killer hired to retrieve the money stolen from a drug deal gone bad. Sure to be a cult classic!

Last of the PSOne Final Fantasys
Great story line, multiple hours of game play. The mini-games (Choco Hot or Cold) are actually fun and not to terribly monotonous. Average game play story and various mini-quests and side events can easily top out over 100 hours. Good replay value.

Peter G. (247 KP) rated The Silence of the Lambs (1991) in Movies
Jun 5, 2019
I was late to the table having only recently watched this gripping and monstrous psychological thriller, Jodie Foster as the FBI agent in training needing Hannibal Lecter's insight into a case, Hopkins plays the manipulative cannibal with aplomb and you fear for Clarice at every turn. Top quality scares in this one.
Movie Metropolis (309 KP) rated Cast Away (2000) in Movies
Jun 10, 2019
Truly meme worthy, Cast Away features one of Tom Hanks’ best performances in front of the camera. The only reason it didn’t make the list is because Life of Pi features similar films, and I think that is the better film.
