Question:
Movie recommendations?
2013-04-01 13:18:39 UTC
Just wanted to know a few names of good movies that I could watch when I have nothing better to do! I don't want to watch anything too old but if they're really good I guess I could give it a try! Thanks! :)

The Odd Life of Timothy Green -

About a couple who can't conceive and make wishes for an infant. Next thing you know, a child is born but Timothy Green is not who he appears. I thought this movie was great and it was a pretty sad movie.



The Perks of Being a Wallfower-

This movie is about a boy named Charlie who's just beginning high school and is shy and slow at making friends. He then befriends two seniors and they show him what life is about. It's a quirky, nice, but yet sad film.



Back to the Future-

Okay this movie is old (came out in 1985) but it's a classic. It's an great movie about a boy traveling back in time.



Forrest Gump-

This movie is also kinda old but it's a good movie. It's a sad movie too.



And the last movie I recommend is...



Pitch Perfect-

Very funny movie about a acapella group. Definitely watch it if you haven't already.



You may have seen some of these films but if you haven't, definitely check them out. These are just some of my favorite films



Have a good day (:

The Bourne Trilogy (don't watch the Bourne Legacy. That one is no good.)

The Dark Knight Trilogy

The Lord of The Rings + The Hobbit

Les Miserables (New with Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, & Anne Hathaway)

Django Unchained

The Man From Nowhere (Very good film. Love this movie and is definitely on my Top 10! Think Taken times 10! Or Leon: The Professional.)

Leon: The Professional (Jean Reno? And kid Natalie Portman? Classic!)

Taken (Watch the 2 above first! And don't watch the 2nd one...it's trash.)

Pitch Perfect

Wreck-It-Ralph

Sling Blade (Real sad movie *tear* *tear*)

Back To The Future

Toy Story 1, 2, 3 (Best animated movie to ever come out. Ever.)

50/50 (More people gotta see this! Seth Rogen & Joseph Gordon Levitt? Top Notch movie.)

Seven Psychopaths

Drive (Ryan Gosling is fantastic. Slow at first with minimal talking but is absolutely great.)

I Saw The Devil (Thrilling, bloody, and one of the best revenge movies to date. Spine-chiller.)



That should be a little of everything. Hope you found something good!
