Now the question is how do i make this list without incriminating myself.

The Fly
3 Women
Buffalo 66

I dunno those were just 3 that came to mind first

I've only seen The Fly.

and do you agree, it's badass in a way that dallas buyers club, nebraska and american hustle can't even touch?

Of those three, I only saw American Hustle. And while I do LOVE The Fly and think it's brilliant, I would probably say that I enjoyed American Hustle on a more visceral level. It's been a long time since I've seen The Fly, but I would listen to any argument saying it's a better film than American Hustle.

The movie's just as good when you know what's coming. It's just good in a different way.

Maybe I'll blow off work and go watch Her.

Spoiler: show

And I got those clues-- the whole "you don't mean it today" thing with the wife, and the Silent Bob manager, things like that-- but I was seriously expecting them to lead to something less corny than "identical twin". I was primed for a crazy mindfuck but instead I was just deflated by the reveal.

Constantine. C.

I liked Constantine, mostly because Peter Stormaire is an awesome Satan.

I was flipping around and the opening exorcism sucked me in. It could have been a lot better but it had it's moments. The guy who played Satan was very good. It didn't bother me that Reeves didn't fit all the comic book character traits i.e. British and Blonde. There were some aspects of the character and back story I did miss but that's Hollywood. Mostly I just hate CGI demons. They aren't scary. Put a guy in a rubber mask and I freak out.

That's what she said.

Yeah. That movie was not as bad as many reviewers made it out to be.

That surprise is not essential to the plot and the movie is actually better the second time through as it's easier to pick up on the little clues you may have missed over the course of the story.
