Brilliantly cool. Adds nothing to the world. But still cool.
But then anything with Guy Pearce is brilliant and cool.
One of my fall back actors. If I don't know what to rent I check if Guy made anything new. Most of it is Australian, so you might not have seen it.

And another, First Snow.

Was big time. But it's been awhile. Dust it off. It's pretty good.
Good basic believable sci-fi

Monsters Ball.
Puff Daddy, Halle Berry,Heath Ledger,Billy Bob Thornton.
I'm sure you know this one. But I'll mention it because it is the best American movie I have seen in a very long time.
Outstanding writing and acting by everyone. Directed to not insult the audience with yet another car chase.

Low budget but high quality. Asks some interesting questions.

I love it for what it does not say, does not show.

Watch this with your girlfriend.
Based on a Shakespearian play, set in the wild west gold rush.
You might fall asleep, but she will love it.
