Top 25 Films of the 1990's

Image
I was royally bored this afternoon so I did some good old fashioned research, and came up with a list of my favorite films of the 90's. It was very difficult to narrow it down to 25. I tried to get a good balance of comedy, drama, action, horror, etc. films into the list. I would love to hear some feedback. This was a great decade for movies. A lot of these films I grew up watching over and over. I'm not going to get into too many details. I will try and give reasons for some films. Please enjoy! 25. Happy Gilmore (1996) - Directed by Dennis Dugan. Starring Adam Sandler. I don't have to explain myself here. There are one-liners in this film that I still use to this very day. 24. The Firm (1993) - Directed by Sydney Pollack. Starring Tom Cruise. This was a huge decade for Tom Cruise. His films have gotten a little shady lately, but he was a machine in the 90's, and this is a fantastic film. 23. The Truman Show (1998) - Directed by Peter Weir. Starring Jim Carrey. This...

Top 100 Actors

60. Gael Garcia Bernal One of the best Spanish actors out there. But the kicker is he can speak fluid English. He steals every scene he's in. -The Science of Sleep -Amores Perros -Y tu mamá también 59. Casey Affleck Well, we have our first Affleck. Casey has really come into his own in the past five years. He's terrific in The Assassination of Jesse James, opposite Brad Pitt. -The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford -The Killer Inside Me -Gone Baby Gone 58. Cillian Murphy He has great relationships with directors Christopher Nolan and Danny Boyle. Two of the best directors alive know what Murphy is capable of. -28 Days Later... -Sunshine -Batman Begins 57. Tobey Maguire His defining role was in 2009's chilling film Brothers. The Spider-Man films launched his dying career. Now that those films are long gone, I'm eager to see what he latches onto next. -Brothers -Spider-Man -Spider-Man 2 56. Mel Gibson Gibson hadn't appeared in a film in five years...

Battle: Los Angeles (2011) PG-13

Image
The first trailer for Battle: LA was quite atmospheric and was easy on the eyes. But as more and more trailers came out and word of mouth spread, I knew this film was going to be a disappointment. The cast is led by Aaron Eckhart (The Dark Knight, Meet Bill), Michelle Rodriguez (Avatar, The Fast and the Furious), Michael Pena (Crash, Shooter) and Bridget Moynahan (I, Robot, Lord of War). The rest of the cast is fairly inexperienced, and it shows because the acting is laughable at times. Director Jonathan Liebesman (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning, Darkness Falls) put together some decent special effects throughout (with one glaring exception, the aliens), but it doesn't help the cause. You've heard and seen it all before. Earth has been attacked by alien life forms and it doesn't take long before they begin to take over our planet. Of all the hundreds of thousands of locations to choose from, the writer choose Los Angeles for the film to take place. That's a...
