What are the little-seen movies you should watch them when you can....?

The Soloist -- Downey and Foxx are both excellent, and the story brings to light some of the hush-hush problems our country faces.

Moon -- one of the best sci-fi movies of recent years. And Sam Rockwell rocks.

The Hurt Locker -- intense... great movie. Winner of the 2008 Venice Film Festival grand prize.

probably watching DARK KNIGHT
Sam Rockwell was in a great movie several years ago called Lawn Dogs. It starred Micha Barton as a little girl, before she was in The Sixth Sense.

Kontroll is a film about ticket inspectors in the Budapest Underground system. Any further categorisation of the film will fail. It's not a true comedy, but it sort of is, it's not a true horror film, but it sort of is, it's not true romance, but almost. Some say it's a little too diffuse, going in too many directions at once, but that is the beauty of it. You have literally no idea what is going to happen next.

It is also beautifully shot (not one shot of natural light is in this film) and with a brilliantly eeire soundtrack.

If nothing else, at least watch this. Bulscu's team encounter a serial fare dodger, with high octane and hilarious results. I think it may be the best movie chase ever, better than Bullit and the awesome bit in the Bourne Supremacy. The bit when Tibor (the guy with the whipped cream on his face) slams into the pillar? That wasn't staged.
