1. Fight Club
2. Seven
3. Panic Room
4. The Game
haven't seen Alien 3
Let me tell you something about Seven...I had the ending spoiled for me. I was never able to watch the whole thing until a few years ago, and until then I had only seen it in bits and pieces, usually edited for TV. So I've never really considered it a great movie, even though I'm sure I would have loved it had I saw it fresh
Oh well

WHEN you watch Alien3, make sure it's the "assembly cut" that was on the Quadrilogy version. It's about 30min longer. The original was already great, but this version is fucking excellent.

The Game was boring, but not a terrible film

I liked Panic Room except as soon as they started showing the criminals, it got really formulaic...Jared Leto was the annoying idiot, the black guy was the nice working class black guy trying to help his family, and then there was the psycho. Some of the dialogue got pretty bad, but it had good suspense and was a pretty original film. Just not as good as his others.

1. Seven (I'm sick so this is some sweet eye candy)
2. The Game (agreed about it's underrated-ness? )
3. Fight Club
4. Alien 3
5. Panic Room (cinematography gets A+ but Jodie Foster makes it an F)

Although I like "Panic Room," I am reminded of something funny that one of my film teachers, who hated it, said about it:
"It took me half the movie to even figure out whether the kid was a boy or a girl. Of course, I couldn't tell if Jodie Foster was a boy or a girl either!"
