Any recommendations?

Just watched 'Seven which was quite good. Anyone watched one lately that they would highly recommend?

Se7en was quite good??? It's a masterpiece one of the best films every made!!!
I must have watched it hundreds of times, watch it again it's a dark complex story and one of those films you get more and more out of it on each viewing.

Fincher was in his prime back then, followed it up with Fight Club which I assume everyone has seen at this point? Then to finish the trilogy in the 90s was The Game which is truly an amazing film if you like thrillers, it is simply amazing and not sure it got the critical acclaim of the previous movies.

Zodiac is really really good too although I wasn't that enthused on my first watch.

LA Confidential is a must watch such a rich storyline.

Other must watches for me are:
Taxi Driver
Scarface
China town
Mulholland Drive
Goodfellas
Donnies Brasco
Soo many great films, to throw in a fav of mine that might not get much attention is The Long Good Friday.

Edit: forgot to throw in Heat too.

Sleepers is awesome too, just didn't get into Training Day that much but it still exists in my DVD collection. (Remember them??)

Maybe a generational thing? but when I saw this subject header & then the replies, I just thought - "oh, you didn't mean *books* then!

I thought the same. I saw it as a shameless chance to plug my book...
I will add that I recently watched Sleepers and enjoyed it.

Well we could spin off a totally different thread on how books are much better than the screenplays/films. Or indeed vice versa.

For example, The Shining....

Now that's just the kick up the butt I need to get my "new" (as in "been languishing in drawer for the past 6 months") kindle fired up! Will certainly give it a go when I do, thanks :)
