Hunger Games was good. Mind blowing, no. It's a teen film, fer chrissakes, but the book and movie(s) are a very focused, powerful seed for fantasy-based thought.
Hunger games reminded me ever so closely of the Japanese Book and film Battle royal...
Anyway Last film I watched was Ghost in the shell have not seen it since high school still is good...

treasure of the sierra madre!
fact:
A doctor was assigned to the unit in Mexico and one night he had to attend to John Huston, who had an adverse reaction to marijuana, having smoked it for the first time with his father. He never touched the stuff again.

A Woman in Berlin
Based on the autobiographical book about the plight of the German women at
the hands of the Red Army. A very powerful and well done movie with some
outstanding acting. (2008)

The Descendants.
Had us going through many emotions. Had many characters that we loved to hate, and hated to love.
Clooney's acting continues to impress, and Shailene Woodley is wonderful in her part. Seeing Hawaii pictorially as the backdrop somehow adds something unreal to the movie, which makes the story even more bittersweet (if that makes any sense).
If you've ever been left by anyone (deliberately or not), you will appreciate the movie.
It should have gotten the academy award, we think.

It might be the only steampunk space western musical ever made, but damn if it isn't the best one.

Re-watched The Birds, for the I don't know, the 20th time. Family time, so seemed acceptable, 80 yr old in-law hadn't seen it since the old days when one went to the theater. He said it scared the pee out of him!
"It's the end of the world"...
Then for the midnight show,
Female Trouble (1975)
A riotously funny bad-taste epic from director John Waters, Baltimore's "Prince of Puke," this sick classic tells the depraved life story of obese criminal Dawn Davenport (Divine), from her bad-girl youth as a go-go dancer on Baltimore's infamous Block to her death in the electric chair. Mink Stole is terrific as Dawn's bratty daughter Taffy, conceived following a romp on a junkyard mattress with a fat derelict in soiled underpants (also played by Divine). Mary Vivian Pearce and David Lochary

"Che" (now on streaming Netflix). 4 hours. I'll grant you I have leftist leanings, but that aside I found it an excellent movie. Even Fatty would find something to admire (lol) Entering into the life of a guerrilla. History, drama, tragedy all mixed into on. Makes free soloing look light weight.

Beginners (Chris Plummer best supporting actor)
Melencholia (Lars Van Triers latest)
The Tree (Charlotte Gainbourg) she's also in melancholia
Young Adult (Charlize Theron)
Breaking Bad season 4 (not a movie but entertaining) Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul are great.
