Goodfellas - a good movie, but not a fave because it's not quite my type of story. A little better than Casino. Might have my favorite performance by Robert De Niro.
The Royal Tenenbaums - the first Wes Anderson film I've seen. I liked it quite a lot. The style reminded me of Amelie, one of my favorites. I can tell Wes is a control freak and everything in the frame was put there by him so it would be just right.
Rushmore - I think I'm starting to like Wes. A good movie, although not quite as good as the above. Knowing that he's also made The Life Aquatic, these past two films by him make me think he has something for the sea.
The Terminator - I think this movie is a classic, like Raiders of the Lost Ark. While it's not the best made film, it's still watchable and fun, and something that I'll keep turning to once in awhile. Time to watch the second one.
