Slumdog Millionaire
Pretty cool, though confusing for the first two thirds. Once the action gets in order and the flashbacks cut back then it rolls with a great tension to the conclusion and the long awaited Bollywood dance. Anwar is great. Dark Knight was robbed. Recommended anyway.
Gran Torino
Clint Eastwood is a widely recognised god of cinema. This is why- he knows what people are feeling and thinking and puts it on film. The ultimate story of self-sacrifice with the Obi Wan ending. An excellent film for text study in VCE.
Watchmen
Heath Ledger won an Oscar for the Joker. Jackie Earle Hayley is better as Rorschach than Heath was as Joker. This is way dark and a thoroughly thought provoking and still action packed superhero film. The graphic novel is different and deeper, but this works fine on the big screen.
There is plenty out there at the minute so these come highly recommended for different reasons. Certainly worth a look anyway.
