Some movies that I didn't see recommended yet.

"Oh brother where art thou" Excellent, funny. Clooney's best work. (comedy)

"Finding Forrester" I was suprised how good this was. (drama)

The "Ghost and the Darkness" One for the whole family. (adventure/action)

Check to see if your library has movies. You can watch them for free this way.

"Pride and Prejudice"
"Remains of the Day".
"Searching for Bobby Fisher"
"That Thing You Do".
"Thor 1"
"Maleficent"
"Cinderella 2015"

I loved it.
Saw it a few times.., and just gave it as a gift.:thumb
Yeah. I'm a 23 year-old guy, so it's not really my type of movie.

But it was great :)

I believe they are going to do a similar live action thing with some other older Disney movies like Beauty & the Beast, The Jungle Book and possibly The Little Mermaid.
 
Come on,mad max,mad max beyond thunderdome,and the other one in between. Any aussie must see this. Mel Gibson got his start.
 
Movies I'll stop and get sucked back into if I stumble into them at any point:

Unbreakable
Shawshank Redemption
Dances with Wolves
The Patriot
Field of Dreams
Money Ball
War Dogs
 
Quite the list. The following are from the Christian movie production company Pure Flix (Linked for whole list of their movies) I've watched all of these which is why I highly recommend.
God's Not Dead: A Light in Darkness Official Trailer

God's Not Dead 2 I'm Not Ashamed Official Trailer
This is coming to theater's. May have already since it's been years since I was in one. I love the line in this film. Amended here so it applies to everyone. "It's OK to be broken. It means God is still shaping you."
GOD'S NOT DEAD 3: A LIGHT IN DARKNESS Official Trailer (2018) Jennifer Taylor Drama Movie HD


War Room Official Trailer

These are not Pure Flix titles . I've watched The Shack. In my view you'll never be the same after watching that masterpiece.
This is an clip.

"Forgiveness"



This looks really really good.
Samson It co-stars Rutger Hauer. I haven't seen him in many movies of late. Excellent actor.
