I actually watched All the President's Men last night. Great movie, excellent performances. Really well-edited film. I saw this in a high school American History class but didn't pay much attention the first time.

Manhattan Murder Mystery isn't one of my favorites from Woody Allen, but it's definitely worth a watch. Witty, but a bit fluffy at times. I think it's improvised; the cast does a good job.

I'm about to watch Battle of Algiers, been wanting to see this for a while. We screened F is for Fake at a cinema club I was apart of in college, but I dipped out within the first 20 minutes to go to a bar.

The Elijah Wood flick I'd heard of but had no intention of watching. My friend just gave it to me and said it was good, and I was desperate for whatever entertainment, since I'm pretty sick right now.

Battle of Algiers was outstanding, it has total relevance to today and everyone should watch it. And yes, the Munich comparison wasn't far off either.

It's good. It's not as in-depth as the book, character-wise, but I thought it was a good little film. The last 20 minutes really got to me.
