Leaving Las Vegas

A story about an agent from Los Angeles, who becomes addicted to alcohol and is fired from his job. He leaves for Las Vegas with all his belongings and determines to drink until he dies. Upon arriving he meets a lady crossing the street, who appears to be a hooker.

They become friends and soon, live with one another. Ben realizes he loves her and must struggle between his mission and this new love he has. Things escalate and end in a tragedy.

After watching the film, I woke up the next morning feeling as if this film had been a dream or maybe a nightmare. I thought Nicolas Cage acted the role of his life until now, and Elizabeth Shue was lovely in every way.

Once Upon a Time in The West

A 'Spaghetti Western'. This film tells the story of a man, who's out for revenge. He isn't great with words, but he isn't bad with his gun.

The opening scene is epic. The film's score is funny and amusing, yet beautifully made. You won't feel sad for the people who die in this film, but entertained. The film's duration (175 minutes), that's the extended cut, which would be the preferable version to watch.

Unforgiven

If you're a fan of 'Spaghetti Westerns', this is one film you need to see. Tells the story of a man who after settling down and forming a family is hired to once again do what he does best.

I wouldn't say the best Western, but I enjoyed watching it. What I understood was somethings in a man you just can't changed, no matter how hard you try. The film's duration (131 minutes long).

The Silence of the Lambs

This film tells the story of an MD. Not your typical Doctor though, It's Hannibal Lector. He assists the FBI in the capturing of a serial killer (Buffalo Bill). Its a true thriller and not for the sensitive.

I enjoyed watching Anthony Hopkins create this character. A mysterious, frightening and quiet man, who you know is always up to something, but doesn't show it. Duration (118 minutes).

Tigerland

This film is about a young rebellious guy, played by Colin Farrell, who's forced into war in 1971. While being trained, he starts his own war, with fellow soldiers and superiors. He does befriend one soldier though.

He desperately wants out, he eventually goes to war but helps a friend out. A good war film, although no war actually occurs in it. The film (100 minutes) is full of fights and hilarious situations.
