146
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004,  PG)
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
This is where the Harry Potter series suddenly gets some great direction and awesome cinematography. They also never do explain what's going on as well as they do in the book. Hello? Why do these adult people know about the Marauder's map? Oh, you don't need to know that unless you're reading the book. Of course.
147
Wanted (2008,  R)
Wanted
This was surprisingly fun. If you've ever worked in a cubicle farm you'll empathise entirely.

155
Tipping the Velvet (2002,  R)
156
The Fall (2006,  R)
The Fall
This movie was unexpectedly brilliant. The scenery and colours are particularly amazing, while the story is both beautiful and tragic.
157
Slumdog Millionaire (2008,  R)
158
Million Dollar Baby (2004,  PG-13)
Million Dollar Baby
Unexpectedly beautiful.
159
Milk (2008,  R)
Milk
I'm actually quite surprised by the likenesses to the real people. But that's entirely irrelevant. This was a great movie.
160
They Live (1988,  R)
They Live
I can't believe it took me so long to see this. Fantastic movie.
161
Moulin Rouge! (2001,  PG-13)
162

163
THX 1138 (1971,  PG)
THX 1138
Very surprising movie. I was expecting it to look far more dated, but it was really very well done in that respect. The dystopia itself was sort of a mix-up of 1984, Brave New World, Brazil & The Time Machine. The beauty of it was that it didn't hold your hand like most American movies do these days, so a lot was left unspoken or at a loose end. That, and that the human nature shown was pretty realistic, such as panicking when you're about to achieve freedom. The actor didn't go overboard with emotion after bad news is found out - the reaction was exactly as you'd expect from someone drugged up to the eyeballs on stuff specifically designed to inhibit emotions.
164
All the Invisible Children (2005,  Unrated)
All the Invisible Children
I just don't know what to say.

This movie was (aside from a few obvious moments) so real that it made your heart bleed. It made you grip tightly to anything nearby and hope that things would get better for these kids. But you knew it never would.

Oh yes, it's beautiful to watch the kids pulling together and making the best of it. But nothing detracts from the sheer horror of their lives.

How can we fix this? How?
165
The End of Suburbia: Oil Depletion and the Collapse of the American Dream (2004,  Unrated)
The End of Suburbia: Oil Depletion and the Collapse of the American Dream
This movie made me re-think everything. A lot is going to change real soon. Most people aren't ready for it.
