Spider-Man was illy. However, I will agree with you on The Hulk. Nowadays, most great movies pretty much just fly under the radar. Although it's expensive, sometimes it's good to go to the theater and see a movie you haven't heard anything about. If I never did that, I wouldn't have stumbled upon One Hour Photo, and I never would've known that Robin Williams is pretty good at some serious roles.

But one movie that was hyped up, and delivered, was 25th Hour (2003) directed by Spike Lee. Every review I read gave the film 4 stars, except for one...which gave it 3 3/4. And for those not familiar with movie reviews, 4 is the highest rating. Anyways, that's one of the best films of the decade so far.

Yeah, it was Spike Lee and Edward Norton that made me want to see it. Supporting cast is great too: Brian Cox (Striker from X-2), Barry Pepper (Knockaround Guys), Ana Paquin (Rogue from X-Men), Phillip Seymour-Hoffman (Capote), and Rosario Dawson (Rent).

Only one ive not heard of is the dude from Rent, Rosario Dawson or whatever, sounds like a dope lineup tho,

*searches ebay for dvd*

9th, what was that old movie, one of spike lees first where Samuel L.Jackson played the crackhead?...

Nynth Degree 03-09-06 12:53 PM

I believe it was Jungle Fever.

And here's Rosario Dawson. She also played Gail in Sin City.
