Rat Race is a hilarious comedy with a plethora of amazing stars, such as Whoopi Goldberg, Rowan Atkinson, Cuba Gooding Jr., John Cleese, and Jon Lovitz, just to name a few. This film tells the story of a group of people, all racing to New Mexico for the chance to win two million dollars. The whole film is filled to the brim with funny hijinks and comedic situations as the characters all scramble to be the first to reach the coveted cash prize in New Mexico. I highly recommend this great movie to anyone looking to watch a comedy movie thatâs guaranteed to make you laugh out loud.

Au Revoir Les Enfants is an amazing film that is extremely moving and emotionally powerful. It tells the tale of two boys, (one jewish, the other Catholic), their friendship during the chaotic days in World War II, and the challenges they face to try and be friends. Although the film has subtitles, you shouldnât let that deter you from seeing this moving film. Iâd recommend it to anyone who loves historical, dramatic, or foreign films. Be warned though, this movie will definitely bring a few tears to your eyes, so be sure to keep a box of tissues nearby.

Gone With The Wind is a truly classic film that everyone should see at least once in their lives. The cast, story, costumes, scenery, and acting are all superb. Although the movie is quite long, it still manages to keep you riveted and interested in all the different happenings in the film. Vivian Leigh gives an amazing performance as the storyâs heroine. She truly captures the essence of the Southern belle Scarlet OâHara in her performance. Not only is this a great dramatic movie, it is also a great romance movie as well. Clark Gable and Vivian Leigh have such great chemistry between them which adds even more greatness to this movie.

Murder On The Orient Express is a truly great adaptation of an amazing Agatha Christie story. Agatha Christie is one of my favorite authors, Hercule Poirot is my favorite detective, and Murder On The Orient Express is my favorite Agatha Christie story, so itâs no wonder I LOVE this movie. It stays true to the book version of the story, which is a definite plus, and it has some amazing actors, like Sean Connery, Anthony Perkins, Lauren Bacall and Albert Finney. If you are a fan of the mystery/crime genre of films, then you should definitely see this movie.

The Silence Of The Lambs is my all time favorite movie. The actors, story, scenery, EVERYTHING about this movie is absolutely amazing and riveting. Jodie Foster and Anthony Hopkins absolutely give amazing performances. The character of Hannibal Lecter, played by Anthony Hopkins, is probably one of the best villains in any movie youâll ever see. Although Hannibal Lecter is a cold blooded serial killer, you can never truly despise him, and in fact will find yourself fascinated by him. Another great actor in the film that needs mentioning is Ted Levine, who plays Buffalo Bill. His performance is so creepy, that you have to see it to believe it. If you are a fan of crime or horror movies, then you MUST see this movie.

Murder By Death is an extremely underrated, hilarious film that is filled with amazing actors. Thereâs Peter Falk, who plays a parody of fictional detective Sam Spade, Peter Sellers, who plays a parody of sleuth Charlie Chan, and other hilarious performances by other great actors. Thereâs even an appearance by famous writer Truman Capote in this movie. This movie combines two great genres: mystery and comedy, and what a great combination it is! This movie is definitely one of my favorite comedy movies of all time. If you like mysteries, comedies, or seeing your favorite mystery sleuths parodied, then this film is for you.

The film, The Stranger On The Third Floor, is a brillaintly told horror story, considering that it came out in 1940. Peter Lorre plays an extremely creepy character, and, in my opinion, gives a better performance than the lead actors. You will be left feeling truly terrified by his character as the film progresses. The Stranger On The Third Floor is the perfect movie to watch on a dark and stormy night.

Behind Enemy Lines is a great action movie thatâs guaranteed to entertain you and keep you on the edge of your seat. The explosions, gun fights, and chase scenes are all exciting, and the movie is filled with a ton of great, A List type actors. Owen Wilson does quite an amazing job playing the lead role, and his performance is so good, that it will make you really root and cheer for his character. I think this is one of those movies that are extremely underrated. Behind Enemy Lines is probably my second favorite movie of all time.

This film was an absolutely breathtaking movie from beginning to end. The actors, scenery, and special effects were brilliant in every way possible. I was reluctant to see this movie at first, because of it being a Disney movie, but once I saw it, I was completely blown away. I had never read the book series before I saw this film, but afterward I made it a point to read all seven books, and I have to say that this movie does the book justice. I have to say that The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe is now one of my all time favorite movies.

Candyman is one of those rare horror movies that no matter how many times you see it, and are familiar with the ending, you STILL end up getting scared out of your mind. This movie tells the story of an urban legend come to life, which is a truly terrifying thought. Tony Todd plays the Candyman, who is a bone-chilling villain in the film, and who will stop at nothing to terrorize the people who call out his name. If you are a big horror movie fan, then Candyman is the perfect film to see. You will definitely want to watch this film over and over.

Lifeboat is an extremely underrated Hitchcock gem. This film tells the story of a group of people stranded at sea together, struggling to survive. The situation they are in is an extremely believable one, which makes watching this movie all the more thrilling and suspenseful. All the actors in the movie are quite good, especially Tallulah Bankhead. The actors and actresses in this movie all play their characters extremely well, leaving you to believe that these characters are really fighting for their lives. I highly recommend this film if you enjoy suspenseful movies, or are a fan of Alfred Hitchcock.

David McCallum does an amazing job of playing Ducky, the medical examiner, on the hit TV show NCIS. I don't think the show would be half as entertaining if he wasn't in it. David McCallum truly stands out among today's television actors. I have seen him in guest starring roles on the shows Matlock and Murder, She Wrote. Both times he did a very good acting job. Unfortunately, I have not had the pleasure of seeing him on the show, The Man From U.N.C.L.E due to the fact that it was a bit before my time and because it is not shown on TV. However, if they ever decide to show the reruns on TV, I will definitely tune in just to see David McCallum!
