What sleeper movies of the last ten years or so would you recommend to family or a friend.
Primer. Maybe the most interesting — and difficult — time travel movie ever made.

I loved Primer, I thought I was the only person in the world to love it and remember it. Been years since I saw it. I cannot find my DVD. I don’t think the director did anything else.

““The World’s Fastest Indian” starring Anthony Hopkins.”
Excellent movie.
I thought history of violence was better
A quiet but very dangerous man
The sex scene with her in her cheerleader suit comfortably going right to 69 like a well suited married couple would
Then later when she’s mighty pissed and grudge bangs him on the stairs and then when done with him in short order kick off of him lying there exhausted with her sharp heel as she pulls her panties back up
The power of women boy....classic I can show you how it’s done mr tough guy.....ive had women do that same thing....use you basically while are pissed....they love you so much they hate you ....God love em
And the family dynamics....they save him then wifey is like ok....be mensch and fix this shit you brought into our Thomas Kincaide home....
Cronenberg can sure tell a dark thick textured tale......Promises too
And Maria Bello is now a lesbo or maybe she switched back already
Anyhow....she nailed it
William Hurt....an odd choice I thought
A top 20 all time movie to me...
Not within the ten year boundary but still...
The Legend of 1900
with Tim Roth
lost money at the box office critics, meh.
Amazon buyers 80% voted 5 stars.
Delightful, visually rich, saga of orphan borne on a luxury liner he never leaves. Becomes its legendary piano player. Great scene of a lounge piano duel with Jelly Roll Morton, a brief role played very well by Clarence Williams III.
Just good entertainment.
Savior
The other side of the story
“Careful with that bigassed wooden mallet Eugene”
Lawrence of Arabia and The Godfather sustained their running times.
Bullitt has the greatest car chase ever put on film.
“Second Hand Lions”
Another underrated and excellent movie!
Now that he’s made millions playing with guns in movies, he’s taking a stand.
Yes!
The Sheltering Sky just for the cinematography
And the Berber indigo cast against the Sand and reddish morro walls
I may have to rent it again soon
Speilberg Pacific
I detest him but he did good on that one
Eugene Sledge I sure hope you are resting near the lord....you deserve it
And just a boy
“The Silent Partner” with Christopher Plummer and Elliot Gould”
That sounds good.
Hell yes
Good catch
Have a hanky nearby
The Prestige, 2006. Two rival magicians go to any length to top each other in Victorian England. Good story, great cast, lots of plot twists including the best twist ending you should have seen coming since The Sixth Sense. Even a small part for David Bowie playing Nikola Tesla.
It did! I think I’ve watched it 5+ times! It always puts me in a good mood. Jack Black is wonderful and the kids are amazing!
Speaking of a Gyllenhall
The Secretary
Tongue in Cheek(s)
Did what Shades wanted to do but so much better and actually touching and so hilarious
The Secretary might turn your wife on whereas Shades will just piss them off you asked them to watch it
I think you can stream it on Amazon.
Then there's this one...
'Don' You Go Rounin' Roun to Re Ro'
The Legend of 1900
Seen it like 8 times
GREAT movie
Also a turn of the century ocean liner buff....
