Two for the money - Matthew McConaughey plays a average Joe that is becomes the best in the sports-gambling business. He finds that his rise to fame and fortune comes with a price and must get out before it is too late. Pretty good story. I would say worth a rental if you haven't already but not one to put on the shelf for keeps.

The Wild - Uhh isn't this just Madagascar? If that is what you are thinking you would be wrong. Not only is this not that entertaining but it is also not funny, the story completely ridiculous (Yes, even more so than Madagascar) and there is no real point. If you are looking for some adventurous animal fun pick up Madagascar instead. Don't even bother with this one.

The Machinist - Holy Freakin amazing. I was recommended this by a guy at work, more so that this character is the same build as one of the guys there but hey. The story revolves around Christian Bale... who weights around 110 lbs in this movie! Pretty scary, right? Any way he hasn't slept in a year and is starting to go a little nutso. The story takes you along to figure out the root of his insomnia and reveal a secret from his past. This is a definite purchase.

The Worlds Fastest Indian - The life story of Burt Munro (Played by Anthony Hopkins ). This crazy New Zealander who transformed a 1920 Indian motorcycle into a land-speed world record breaking motorbike at Utah's Bonneville Salt Flats in 1967. Very cool story. Rent it next time your in the mood for a "nice" movie. Not a lot of big action... just a great story about a great man.

Brick - Think 1940's detective story set in a Y2K High School...???!!! Make sense? No, well the movie does and it is one of the best I watched this year so far. Starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt (That kid from Third Rock from the sun) and Emilie de Ravin (Claire from Lost). Joseph plays Brendan, the loner, who finds that a girl in his school... also an ex-girlfriend... has been killed and he goes on the hunt for her killer. Brilliantly played out he makes his way through the jocks, punks and drug lords of the school. What is a detective without help from a brainy informant... nothing, cause it has that too. Buy this one if you see it in the store, it'll be worth it.

Crank - Jason Statham kicking ass again. But not as much as I would have liked. Pretty standard movie... little shooting, little driving, little sex in public, little drug, little to keep you thoroughly entertained. Wait for the DVD and rent it...cheap.

And last but not least... a little fire and water!

    SO glad to see that you mentioned The Worlds Fastest Indian..I thought it was a fantastic performance of Anthony Hopkins..not the dark stuff he usually does.
    Burt Monroe is a hero here in NZ and in Novemeber theres a huge bike run organised with bike beach races and bikers from all around the world.It will become a cult movie amongst bikers(as we are) just like Easy Rider did.
    Have a nice day.:)
