What was that flick DiCaprio starred in with Mark Wahlberg and the MA State troopers thing?
The Departed.
Good movie with a stacked cast. Mark Wahlberg, Matt Damon, Leonardo DiCaprio, David O'Hara, Jack Nicholson and Alec Baldwin

Requiem was good. I haven't seen any of the others though. So thanks for the list. I'm guessing by your taste in movies I'll enjoy them.

Think 1991. I'm pretty sure everyone here has seen this movie and doubt anyone thinks its anything less then great. <!--sizec--><!--/sizec--></b>

[quote name='flash' i find his performances flat, insincere, and wimpy - i just i don't believe him in his roles - i just don't see him as a leading man - more the geeky sidekick
Just caught this. I actually like the guy. I like him a lot more after watching Inception, he did a really good job. There is one scene in particular. <!--coloro:#FF0000-->
<!--/coloro--><b>(SPOILER) </b><!--colorc-->
<!--/colorc-->Where his wife jumps off the ledge committing suicide right in front of him. His reaction was so realistic and full of emotion that it put a lump in my throat. He really nailed it.
Misery?
No. But that was a good one.

My favorite horror flick is "idiocracy". [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img] I know, I know, its a comedy, but a horror in my mind. "Hot tub time machine", was actually pretty funny. Im partial to Cusack playing 80's roles. Takes me back to "one crazy summer", and "better off dead". That, and I dated his niece.

'Monstrous4Banger' "better off dead".
two dollars... LOL I have that movie in my basement somewhere on VHS. I never got around to picking up the DVD. Never liked any of his non main stream films though.

Flash: I tend to agree about Dicaprio. He has had a few good roles. "catch me if you can", fit him pretty well, IMO. Hes not very convincing to me as a gangster, or tough guy. Better than Keanu Reeves......DUDE. LOL Dicaprio gets some of the best story lines for those kinds of movies tho, and usually is a supporting actor. In those cases, like "The Departed", the movie is so good, I just overlook it.

Oh I saw HotTub. LMAO. Early on with the one armed bell hop. They made good use of him through out the movie. Funny stuff. What was with the random Bear appearances?

Huh, you did mention it. And I didn't see any edit markings either?? Sorry bout that. The world is better now.
Sunshine cleaning. One reviewer called it "a big slice of life" I would have to add that its a hard knock life being portrayed.
