  FanGirl's Rating My Rating
1
The Fall (2006,  R)
The Fall
See this movie!!!

I love, love, love this movie! A visually remarkable film with actual characters and storylines, I was begining to faith that they could be made, but The Fall renewed my faith. The Fall is visually stunning and has not only one fully developed story with fully developed characters but two fully developed stories with fully developed characters. Catinca Untaru, the little girl in the film, gives the greatest and most geniune performance I have ever seen from a child actor. She's the first kid I have honestly really liked in a film.

Oldboy (2005,  R)

Chinjeolhan geumjassi (Lady Vengeance) (Sympathy for Lady Vengeance) (2005,  R)
Chinjeolhan geumjassi (Lady Vengeance) (Sympathy for Lady Vengeance)
To me not as great as Oldboy but better than Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance. Not for the skeamish or faint of heart, personally, after seeing how the object of her vengeance treated women I was ready for the violence. If you like Chan-Wook Park's other films I have no doubt you will enjoy this one as well.

He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not (Ŕ la folie... pas du tout) (2002,  PG-13)
He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not (Ŕ la folie... pas du tout)
A great film, instant favorite. I recommed it to everyone, no matter how you feel about this film in the beginning make sure to watch it at least a little way past half way through and trust me once you make it to half way through you'll know what I mean. Everyone I know who has seen, has loved.
5
Singin' in the Rain (1952,  G)
Singin' in the Rain
Some say it's the greatest musical of all time; I'm not going to argue.

David Tennant is delightful as Casanova.

Sin noticias de Dios (Don't Tempt Me) (2003,  R)
Sin noticias de Dios (Don't Tempt Me)
I've read a lot of bad reviews of this film, but I found it engaging and original. I really liked this film and would recommend it to anyone who likes quirky, original films.
10
Fa Yeung Nin Wa (In the Mood for Love) (2001,  PG)
Fa Yeung Nin Wa (In the Mood for Love)
My favorite Wong Kar-Wai film and that's saying a lot.

Bad Education (La Mala educación) (2004,  NC-17)
Bad Education (La Mala educación)
This is just an amazing movie. If you're homophobic don't see it, otherwise I highly highly recommend it. And personally I think Bael Garcia Bernal has never looked better ;)
