Bought some dvd's

I bought some DVD's last night ... two for $20 at blockbusters.

The Professional - I finally got to see this movie. A loner reluctantly shelters a twelve year-old girl, and gradually his life takes on new meaning. Oh, and did I mention that he's a ruthless hitman? It's a refreshingly nuanced film in this age of in-your-face blockbusters. #63 on IMDB's Top 250 list.

Master and Commander - A day in the life of the 18th century british navy. I liked the attention to detail, the naval strategy, and the performances were pretty good too.

Star Wars, Episode II - Yes, I know the story was crap. But, come on, I'd buy it for Yoda's lightsaber duel alone.

Kill Bill, Volume I - I liked Lucy Liu's management style. I have no urge to buy Volume II, though. Big disappointment for me. #57 on IMDB's Top 250 list.

Chicken Run - "The chickens ... they're getting organized" That line still cracks me up.

And a few weeks back I bought a few others.

The Godfather - the ultimate guy movie. Women just don't seem to get it, do they? #1 on IMDB's Top 250 list.

Glengary Glen Ross - A stellar cast, dynamite script, ... and the most hostile office environment I've ever seen.

Moulin Rouge! - Haven't gotten around to watching this again. We'll see how it holds up for me.

The Program - best football movie ever made. (Well, I liked it at least.)
