I was hanging out with a few friends and decided to watch a movie called Vanilla Sky. From the start, I was completely thrown off balance. I was about to dismiss the movie as being pretentious, and yet I couldn't stop watching due to the fascinating imagery not to mention Penelope Cruz and Cameron Diez.

However, as the movie progressed, and neared the end I was completely blown away by how awesome the movie was. And by the end I was absolutely shocked at how crazy everything was. I was not disappointed by a long shot.

You have your movies that comform to Hollywood standards and cliches, and then every now and then, you have a movie that comes and aims to break that barrier.

Which movies do you believe do that?

As far as recent movies, I'd have to say No country for old men definitely exceeded my expectations. Another movie that comes to mind is momento.

So, what can you think of?
