- Crash
(2004)
Best Picture (2005)
Yawn. A bunch of things happened before a car crash. I don't remember anything about it other than that. - Dances with Wolves
#75 Top 100 (1998)
Best Picture (1990)
Kevin Costner flick. I didn't think the thing would ever end. Thankfully, it did. If only I had been able to fall asleep during it, I would have liked it better. - Dial M for Murder
#9 Mystery
Good Hitchcock murder mystery. In a twist, something went wrong with the plan. Like happens in every other Hitchcock murder mystery. I enjoyed it. - Do the Right Thing
#96 Top 100 (2007)
Some Spike Lee movie. I think it had a message, but I wasn't sure what it was. I think it was that white folks are bad. Maybe I'm thinking of another film. Either way, I wasn't impressed. - Doctor Zhivago
#39 Top 100 (1998)
About an hour too long. - Double Indemnity
#29 Top 100 (2007)
#38 Top 100 (1998)
I saw this after having permanently associated Fred MacMurray as the dad in My Three Sons, and Barbara Stanwyck as Victoria Barkley in The Big Valley. Once I got past that, I really enjoyed this. - Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb
#26 Top 100 (1998)
#39 Top 100 (2007)
Saw it on TV a long, long time ago. The only parts I remembered were the Coke machine and Slim Pickens riding the bomb. Saw it much later, understood it, and still liked it. - Driving Miss Daisy
Best Picture (1989)
Good film. - Duck Soup
#60 Top 100 (2007)
#85 Top 100 (1998)
This is the Marx Brothers movie with the mirror scene. If that alone doesn't inspire you to see this movie, I don't know what will. A classic. Hail, Freedonia! - E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial
#24 Top 100 (2007)
#25 Top 100 (1998)
#3 Science fiction
Pretty good film. Although, the Steven Spielberg film that came out seven days before this one (Poltergeist) is the one I enjoyed more.

Crash was a terrible movie in my opinion. Since I have never seen Doctor Zhivago, would you say to watch it just so I can have the right to say it sucked?
