Kaze no tani no Naushika (Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind) (Warriors of the Wind)
PG
As I've now come to expect from director Hayao Miyazaki, this film certainly doesn't disappoint.
The story unfolds in the enjoyably classic Studio Ghibli style, plus it conveys a strong message about balance between humans and nature.
A subetly powerful movie for all the family.
La Habitación de Fermat (Fermat's Room)
Unrated
A very well acted movie with an entertaining and mysterious storyline... definitely worth watching.

1.
The World's Fastest Indian
PG-13
One of the best 'feel good' movies ever reminding us of the joys of life and of the pursuit of dreams. Anthony Hopkins outshines all the other actors by far leading in this true story of an eccentric lovable-old-rogue mechanic. An air of tension is masterfully maintained throughout the film which is directed and shot superbly. Much recommended viewing for all the family.
2.
The Fountain
PG-13
A film about letting go, death, inspiration and hope. Several layers, twists and turns to the storyline entertain the mind... the cinematography and effects are wonderful... plus backed up by Hugh Jackman's best performance yet, I highly recommend Fountain.
4.
Amelie (Le Fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain)
R
A humorously quaint, inspiring and life affirming story, and a very well acted and nicely presented film :)
5.
12 Angry Men
PG-13
A superb example of exactly how quality story writing and skilled acting alone can produce a masterpiece of cinema.

A History of Violence
by Alessandro"Yeah? Well, why don't you ask "Tom" about his older brother Ritchie, ask "Tom" how he once tried to rip my eye out with barbed wire. And ask him, Edie, how come he's so good at killing people."

Il Divo
by Alessandro"Well, Premier, is it by chance that the families of assassination victims hate you? Dalla Chiesa's son hates you. He says that you instigated his father's murder. Aldo Moro's wife hates you and holds you responsible for her husband's death. Does banker Roberto Calvi's wife hate you by chance? She said you threatened then ordered Calvi's murder. She says the Vatican Bank didn't kill him, but two people: Andreotti and Cosentino, who's also dead now. And I wonder, is it by chance that you were Interior Minister when the bandit Pisciotta was killed with a poisoned coffee? Maybe Pisciotta could have revealed the instigators of Giuliano's murder. Was banker Michele Sindona killed in the same way by chance? He too could have made some uncomfortable disclosures in prison. Is it by chance that everyone says you repeatedly protected Sindona? Is it by chance that Evangelisti, your deputy, met Sindona when he was on the run, at a toy shop in New York? Is it by chance that the Magistrate Viola says: If you hadn't protected Sindona, the Ambrosoli crime wouldn't have happened? Furthermore, you jot down everything scrupulously in your diary, so is it by chance that you forgot to write about the Ambrosoli crime? Is it by chance that from '76-'79, when you were Premier, all the secret service chiefs were members of the P2 Masonic lodge? Is it by chance that in your frequent meetings with P2 head, Licio Gelli, you talked exclusively about South American desaparecidos? That's what you said: Just friendly chit-chat. Finally, is it by chance that you've been dragged into nearly every scandal that's afflicted this country? And I'm omitting to mention all the suspects that allege your Mafia links. Basically, as Montanelli said: It's one or the other. You're either the most cunning criminal in the country because you never got caught or you're the most persecuted man in the history of Italy. So I'm asking: Are all these coincidences the fruit of chance or the will of God?"

Star Trek
by LindaHaving absolutely no knowledge about Star Trek, i thought the film was not bad at all. Of course, there must have been some part where i sort of got lost, but the story is well-developed so new comers could enjoy the film without any Star Trek background.
The cast was another aspect which really got the film going. Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto are a great duo! Simon Pegg added the humor within all the tension. And Eric Bana played a kickass villain.
Finally, the action was fantastic. It was what anticipated most from the film, which did not disappoint.
Overall, i think non-Star Trek fans will like the film, but i cannot speak for the hardcore fans!Hey, you should see this film!
