Starring: Adrienne King and Betsy Palmer

Directed by: Sean S. Cunningham

Suggested MPAA Rating: Rated R for bloody violence, sexuality/nudity, and some language

Hanks puts in his best performance in recent years. We have a solid supporting cast of characters, and light-hearted moments that balance out the glum depiction of suicide. I recommend this one.

Starring: Tom Hanks

Directed by: Marc Forster

Rated PG-13 for mature thematic material involving suicide attempts, and language

We have a great cast of colorful characters, snappy dialogue, fantastic practical effects, and menacing zombies.

Also one of my first movie theater experiences, at age 7.

Starring: Sarah Polley, Ving Rhames, Jake Weber, Ty Burrell, and Mekhi Phifer

Directed by: Zack Snyder

Rated R for pervasive strong horror violence and gore, language and sexuality

strong language advised

Cats is in the conversation for Worst Movie of All Time. I am not exaggerating, whatsoever.

The performances are lifeless, the musical numbers are excruciating to sit through, and the pacing feels like I'm being dragged across concrete.

A knock-it-out the park performance from James Cagney, who plays the maniacal gangster Cody Jarrett.

One of my favorite games of all time! As much I love the second installment more, the OG will always have a special place with me.

(strong language advised)

Eastwood puts in a great performance as Walt, and does a solid job as the director. The dialogue is snappy, energetic, and it makes me crack a rib with every watch.

I can understand folks being offended by the racial humor and themes, but I love this film, whole-heartedly.

Starring: Clint Eastwood, Bee Vang, and Ahney Her

Directed by: Clint Eastwood

Rated R for language throughout, and some violence

Denzel puts in a top 5 performance as John Creasy, and Dakota Fanning has one of my favorite performances from a child actor. As much as I love/hate the ending, it still gives me a gut punch.

I highly recommend Man on Fire (2004). One of my favorites.

Starring: Denzel Washington, Dakota Fanning, Radha Mitchell, and Christopher Walken Directed by: Tony Scott

Rated R for language and strong violence

An excellent crime-drama that's led by a magnificent Denzel at his absolute A-game. We also have a fantastic Ethan Hawke performance, a solid supporting cast, and a great soundtrack.

I have Training Day in my personal top 5 movies of all-time.

Starring: Denzel Washington, Ethan Hawke, and Scott Glenn

Directed by: Antoine Fuqua

Rated R for strong brutal violence, pervasive language, drug content and brief nudity

I whole-heartedly adore this film. We have awesome characters and colorful performances to match, fantastic practical effects/creature design, and big belly laughs for me.

I've seen this flick a million times, and it never gets old. The replay value is insane.

Starring: Kevin Bacon, Fred Ward, Michael Gross, and Reba McEntire

Directed by: Ron Underwood

Suggested MPAA Rating: Rated PG-13 for creature violence and gore, and for language
