Guess it depends on what kind of vibe I’m looking for. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is high up on the list. It’s funny and it’s got that noir detective vibe, but a bit more modernized. Considering the movie was released in the early 2000s, I guess it isn’t that modern. Speaking of another movie that isn’t that modern, twelve angry men. I don’t care how often this thing is posted on lists. It’s posted on lists, because it is good. And to follow up something else that is not posted on lists, but is also good. The man from Earth. Do not confuse it with its sequel. The sequel is dog shit. But the man from Earth might be one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. One set films are probably my favorite movies, because it relies heavily on acting and dialogue, not just visuals and special effects. That being said, I do love visuals and special effects, which is why Star Trek First Contact is also high up on that list. But the last movie I’ll reference is also a one set film. The sunset limited. It is a movie directed by Tommy Lee Jones, starring Tommy Lee Jones and Samuel L. Jackson. Tommy Lee Jones’s character tries to kill himself by jumping in front of a train called the sunset limited. Samuel Jones saves him and brings him back to his apartment to try and talk him out of suicide. The entire movie takes place in this very, very, very small apartment. And is exceptional considering it is two powerhouses of acting, acting opposite one another with an amazing script

I am not sure if its exactly what you are lookomg for by some random movie recs. Some of these may not be great but are just movies I enjoy for one reason or another.

• True Lies
• Varsity Blues
• Scott Pilgrim vs the World
• Coraline
• Shawshang Redemption
• Jurassic Park
• The Princess Diaries
• Speed Racer
• Das Boot
• Maverick

• Lost in Translation

Bong Joon Ho’s Parasite is a masterful film in every aspect. See also:

The Lighthouse Pulp Fiction

-Boondock saints

I’m saving this thread to make a watch list, but I’ll add a comedy I haven’t seen mentioned: The Blues Brothers

Jurassic Park

I found a few missing!

I personally loved Sunshine. if you are into Scifi; it’s not Interstellar, but it’s great in it’s own right.

Then there are movies that are so bad that they come out on top, the Sharknado series fill that spot for me.

I’m also a big fan of The Machinist, seeing what actors do to their bodies opened my eyes to the dedication they show.

A movie that was so full of suspense for me that I couldn’t watch it to the end in one sitting was The Hunt (2012), a Danish film about Mass Hysteria in a small village after someone gets falsely accused of child molestation.

All other movies that I can recommend are already mentioned in the other lists, and I’ve saved this whole thread for the huge amount of movies I’m still missing.
