Not to mention Val Kilmer giving the performance of his life. I mean how many actors out there could steal scene after scene from the aforementioned Mr. Downey?
Kaeldra1:
That's true, Val Kilmer was hilarious! I love him, I just am a bigger fan of Robert Downy Jr. But together? Wow.

Werckmeister Harmonies. If anyone here's enjoyed Tarkovsky's movies, they'll like this one. To me, though, it was something different entirely. It exists out of the normal definition of movies
Edit: I should add, this film had the single most powerful sequence I have ever seen. Jens, I know you'd like this one.

Brick was good film. At the beginning, the extent to which it re-appropriates all the trappings of film noir borders on silly, but it becomes less over the top as it goes on. Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Nora Zehetner, the film's femme fatale, are both fantastic.

I recently finished Blood Meridian or The Evening Redness in the West by Cormac McCarthy. I highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys Western novels, though it goes against many conventional themes of Westerns. It can be very bleak at times, to the point where I had to put the book down for a week or so before continuing.
My only criticism toward it is the lack of incite into the main character. I felt like I was denied access to his conscience almost entirely. This made it hard to understand the reasoning behind his actions.
Additionally, I hate McCarthy's minimal writing style. I need my quotation marks and apostrophes.
