A true tearjerker and masterpiece so go watch it!
we brought a zoo the Matt Damon quote "sometimes you only need 20 seconds of insane courage"

That one about a plane where this person has lost her daughter and no one believes her, and then this guy makes the captain think that the mother was hijacking/threatening the plane for money when in reality it was for him.

Then nearly everyone gets off the plane, the mother finds her daughter with a bomb next to her, but the other took the detonator from the guy.

They crawl into a hatch, explode the plane and then leave, killing the guy.


OOPS spoilers

There was this film about a guy who was accused of doing something inappropriate to a young person. It was about the life of that person and how it all went downhill from when he was accused of it. (He did not do anything wrong, it shows a deep insight of how life can change real quick and that accusation of rape are really serious.)

I can't remember the name though.


I remember this - it was starring kate winslet and Kevin spacey. If this is the same movie it involved the death penalty. It was called something like the Story of David Gale.

Really underrated movie

Nope he didn't go to jail he was just being checked and stuff and when nothing was proved, everyone still hated him.

Sicario is a heartwarming tale of 2 long lost acquaintances travelling through America and Mexico to have a family dinner together. Would recommend, really inspirational.
What dreams may come
Toy Story - the freak toys that Sid created.

Remember being terrified by them as a kid, but theyre actually really friendly and save the heroes.

Taught me "dont judge a book by the cover" at a young age.
I can't remember the title, but there was a film starring Chevy Chase and Rick Moranis as detectives who have to go undercover as rappers to foil a large drug deal. It ends with them having to take part in a rap battle. It was very amusing.
The shawshank redemption,
A beautiful mind,
Blood diamond

I love stand by me. One of my favorites but it's not quite inspirational in a 'pursuit of happiness' way.

I haven't seen it yet but I heard lion is good. planning to watch it with a friend when we are in that mood.

I found the intouchables sooo over rated. Was recommended it so I made the suggestion. And now they (who I watched it with) won't let me forget how **** it was. It was okay but too long and a bit one dimensional. Storyline was kind of weak and cliche
