Wanted to see this so bad when I was a kid. Dreadful stuff. Contains absolutely 0% peril. There's a hilarious overlong scene that makes a point about showing Achilles parking his hover car, obviously intended solely for the purpose of revealing his rather nifty and futuristic automatic central-locking key, except its the size of a portable radio, complete with a two foot antenna. And the main chick's stunts weres so plainly performed by a muscley dude without the slightest attempt to conceal it. Another Charles Band winner! CRASH AND BURN!!!

The Butcher Boy is prolly Neil Jordan's best movie.
I'm gonna skip insanely late White Dog in fave of Peter Whitehead's The Fall.
anyway:

Plus there is sometimes an additional scene after -- Young Sherlock Holmes started that I think.

The Departed - enjoyable popcorn flick, but where's Scorsese's thumbprint? felt like it could've been directed by anybody, and at brief times by a clueless anybody (OH LOOK A RAT I SEE WHAT U DID DERE). what keeps things moving is the ruthless plot that's 90% lifted from the original Hong Kong film. it does a bangup job capturing Boston, though. if you live there chances are you know several people just like Wahlberg's character.
Memories of Murder - continued proof of Korean deftness at playing to the cheap seats but still defying expectations. a cruel black comedy about serial killing, police interrogation tactics, and desperate karaoke. jessie how was Teh Host?
I saw To Live & Die In LA twice when it came out, so I'm largely responsible for its total box office haul of $28.

The original had me more wrapped up in the characters' fate, got me thinking about the questions of identity that the setup naturally begs - and you'd think this would be primo territory for Scorsese to explore, but he never slowed down to let those themes percolate. And the Damon-Farmiga-Dicaprio love triangle was total DOA dud.
It sounds like I didn't like it - I did, it zipped along, it was fun - but The Aviator was a ballsier movie. Christ, I'm starting to sound like Morbs.
