This is stuff that comes off the top of my head...
I am not into the action movies much, but thought that Spiderman was well done,
no cussing, no cheap lines, special effects carefully controlled...you can see
how this could easily turn into "Pulp Fiction"...
Since Tom Hanks involved, I thought "Road to Perdition" was OK, I really liked
"Elizabeth" with Cate Blanchett, Geoffrey Rush.
Mostly watch foreign films...(surprize)...At Blockbuster you can find "Jesus of
Montreal" a Canadian drama (the type of movie I like most...). If you want to
see action without grand explosion, watch "The Princess and The Warrior (2001)
with Franka Potente (yeah) when she falls under the truck, that is really good
cinema...If you liked "Pulp Fiction", you would like "Run Lola, Run".
Sorry, have to go...looking for a new job...

Directed by Robert Redford (his first) and highly acclaimed, presents a
great "picture" of dysfunctional parent. Curious of what you concept of
"good" acting is.............;-)

Unfortunately, the main character called it "damn camera"...this is probably
he went into oblivion...
