Snatch. (2001,  R)
Snatch. 5.0 Stars
Guns; violence; cussing; Brits. What more do you want in a comedy? Unforgettable roles, and an even funnier unforgettable plot. What's not to love? In other words, this is easily my love-child with Guy Richie.

Interview with the Vampire (1994,  R)
Interview with the Vampire 4.5 Stars
Blood-sucking, semi-androgynous, and - let's face it, slashy - eye candy. Don't be greedy. Run with it.

American History X 4.5 Stars
Initially, I was reluctant to see it, but boy, am I glad I did. Stark, gritty, and brilliant. Almost a 'coming-of-age' if Edward Norton weren't already in his prime.

I hate to say it, but I cheated on Guy with the creator of FF. And I don't even know his name. See it.

Awesome; had me aching for more. Unconventional love story; not as ideal as you'd expect, but extremely good in the process.

Go Tom Cruise! Probably the best, most meaningful performance from him since...ever. Wait, no, I lie. Since 'Interview With The Vampire'.
