- DirectorMichael BayStarsSean ConneryNicolas CageEd HarrisA mild-mannered chemist and an ex-con must lead the counterstrike when a rogue group of military men, led by a renegade general, threaten a nerve gas attack from Alcatraz against San Francisco.The most neat movie of Hollywood! Breath-taking opening scene, incredible acting and perfect directing. The only movie, which can offer equally perfect acting from both main and supporting actors.
- DirectorMichael BayStarsBruce WillisBilly Bob ThorntonBen AffleckAfter discovering that an asteroid the size of Texas will impact Earth in less than a month, NASA recruits a misfit team of deep-core drillers to save the planet.Another masterpiece from my favorite director - Michael Bay. One of the very few movies, which can offer everything - action, humor, thriller, unexpected turns, drama and even...erotic. But the most valuable thing of this film is the work of cameraman, John Schwartzman. His style was later used in "The Matrix" trilogy.
- DirectorJohn WooStarsJohn TravoltaNicolas CageJoan AllenTo foil a terrorist plot, FBI agent Sean Archer assumes the identity of the criminal Castor Troy who murdered his son through facial transplant surgery, but the crook wakes up prematurely and vows revenge.The best two actor partnership, I've ever seen. Considering that in the middle of the movie, Cage and Travolta switch characters, their acting is a real feat. In addition, the director is one of my favorites - John Woo, who makes the movie unforgettable. Finally, it offers the best closing scene, I've ever seen.
- DirectorTony ScottStarsDenzel WashingtonChristopher WalkenDakota FanningIn Mexico City, a former CIA operative swears vengeance on those who committed an unspeakable act against the family he was hired to protect.The best role of Denzel Washington and the best film of Tony Scott. Cruel, brutal, unmerciful - just like the life itself.
- DirectorZack SnyderStarsGerard ButlerLena HeadeyDavid WenhamIn the ancient battle of Thermopylae, King Leonidas and 300 Spartans fight against Xerxes and his massive Persian army.Despite the critics, for me this movie is a great achievement of a unknown director, who elaborated the action scenes. Regarding the acting of Gerard Butler - I do not think anyone have forgotten it, after seeing it. The movie makes you to forget films like Troy, Alexander and Gladiator.
- DirectorNoam MurroStarsSullivan StapletonEva GreenLena HeadeyGreek general Themistocles of Athens leads the naval charge against invading Persian forces led by mortal-turned-god Xerxes and Artemisia, vengeful commander of the Persian navy.A breathtaking sequal of the original movie from 2006. Noam Murro keeps the spirit of the first film and Eva Green is at her best. Unfortunately Sullivan Stapleton is not as good actor at Gerard Butler, which is the main reason why the original movie is better for me.
- DirectorZack SnyderStarsEmily BrowningVanessa HudgensAbbie CornishA young girl institutionalized by her abusive stepfather retreats to an alternative reality as a coping strategy and envisions a plan to help her escape.Another great achievement by Zack Snyder. This movie unites in unforgettable way drama with fantasy genres. The Action scenes take the breath away again.
- DirectorOliver StoneStarsWoody HarrelsonJuliette LewisTom SizemoreTwo victims of traumatized childhoods become lovers and psychopathic serial murderers irresponsibly glorified by the mass media.Oliver Stone is at his best with this movie. This movie stroke me like a lightning and I stood like hypnotize 30 minutes after I saw it for the first time. It satirizes America like no other movie.
- DirectorJames CameronStarsLeonardo DiCaprioKate WinsletBilly ZaneA seventeen-year-old aristocrat falls in love with a kind but poor artist aboard the luxurious, ill-fated R.M.S. Titanic.A lot of praises and critics, but the result is unconditional - over 1.8 billion income worldwide. Incredible opening scene again, followed by broaching intro, but after that the movie is exceptional. James Cameron elaborates it, adding some humor and extracting the maximum from the acting potential of Leonardo Di Caprio.
- DirectorBaz LuhrmannStarsNicole KidmanEwan McGregorJohn LeguizamoA poor Bohemian poet in 1890s Paris falls for a beautiful courtesan and nightclub star coveted by a jealous duke.This is the movie, for which I've least expected to become a fan of. But I can not deny that Baz Luhrmann is a genius, who had elaborated the movie. In addition the love songs are unforgettable.
- DirectorTony ScottStarsDenzel WashingtonJohn TravoltaLuis GuzmánArmed men hijack a New York City subway train, holding the passengers hostage in return for a ransom, and turning an ordinary day's work for dispatcher Walter Garber into a face-off with the mastermind behind the crime.Another surprise for me by entering in this list. But John Travolta is at his best in this movie and once again Tony Scott proves that he is a genius director.
- DirectorDennis DuganStarsJohn TurturroBob NelsonMel SmithThree manic idiots; a lawyer, cab driver and a handyman team up to run a ballet company to fulfill the will of a millionaire. Stooge-like antics result as the trio try to outwit the rich widow.My favorite comedy. John Turturo is at his best and the director, Dennis Dugan, makes me laugh literally every second of the movie.
- DirectorLana WachowskiLilly WachowskiStarsKeanu ReevesLaurence FishburneCarrie-Anne MossWhen a beautiful stranger leads computer hacker Neo to a forbidding underworld, he discovers the shocking truth--the life he knows is the elaborate deception of an evil cyber-intelligence.Great scenario, which was never seen before. The directing of the action scenes is breath-taking. The only weak point of the movie is the acting.
- DirectorLana WachowskiLilly WachowskiStarsKeanu ReevesLaurence FishburneCarrie-Anne MossFreedom fighters Neo, Trinity and Morpheus continue to lead the revolt against the Machine Army, unleashing their arsenal of extraordinary skills and weaponry against the systematic forces of repression and exploitation.For me it is very difficult to separate the different movies of the The Matrix. Therefore the second part goes right after the first part. This is my favorite part
. - DirectorLana WachowskiLilly WachowskiStarsKeanu ReevesLaurence FishburneCarrie-Anne MossThe human city of Zion defends itself against the massive invasion of the machines as Neo fights to end the war at another front while also opposing the rogue Agent Smith.The final chapter of the The Matrix. Still outstanding movie, even though it's not my favorite part.
- DirectorSteven SpielbergStarsTom HanksMatt DamonTom SizemoreFollowing the Normandy Landings, a group of U.S. soldiers go behind enemy lines to retrieve a paratrooper whose brothers have been killed in action.Forget Schindler's List and E.T., this is the best Steven Spielberg's movie. It showed me that the most touching movie story is the war one. Realistic opening battle scene, followed by unforgettable acting by Tom Hanks, Tom Sizemore (the most underrated actor for me), Edward Burns and Matt Damon.
- DirectorRidley ScottStarsJosh HartnettEwan McGregorTom SizemoreThe story of 160 elite U.S. soldiers who dropped into Mogadishu in October 1993 to capture two top lieutenants of a renegade warlord, but found themselves in a desperate battle with a large force of heavily armed Somalis.The movie that showed me that Ridley Scott can be a genius. Everybody glorify Galdiator, but for me this is his best directing ever. In addition, it has many not so famous, but brilliant actors - Josh Hartnett, Tom Sizemore (again), Ewan McGregor, Eric Bana, William Fichtner, Sam Shepard and Jason Isaacs. The perfect men's movie.
- DirectorSimon WestStarsNicolas CageJohn CusackJohn MalkovichNewly-paroled ex-con and former U.S. Ranger Cameron Poe finds himself trapped in a prisoner-transport plane when the passengers seize control.Another brilliant action movie with Nicolas Case and from the best producer, Jerry Bruckheimer. The closing scene, in which his character meets his wife and daughter after 8 years in prison is more touching than most of the dramas. I almost cry every time I watch it.
- DirectorRoland EmmerichStarsWill SmithBill PullmanJeff GoldblumThe aliens are coming and their goal is to invade and destroy Earth. Fighting superior technology, mankind's best weapon is the will to survive.Despite all the insults, he received, the movie offers something unseen before. The special effect are unforgettable, together with the acting of Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum (maybe his best one).
- DirectorCarl SchenkelStarsChristopher LambertTom SkerrittCodie Lucas WilbeeDuring a chess tournament, grand master Peter is suspected of murdering Debi after sex. He helps the police as the murders continue.Forget the Silence of the lambs, this is the best criminal movie ever for me. When I watched it for the first time, I was sitting in front of the TV with my hair on the arms horrent and really looking forward to see who is the killer. The best acting of Christopher Lambert (highly underrated actor).
- DirectorRussell MulcahyStarsChristopher LambertMike AnscombeJeff J.J. AuthorsChicago homicide detectives Prudhome and Hollingsworth are assigned to investigate a murder. Both become entangled in the plot of a serial killer whose goal is to recreate the body of Christ.Second incredible criminal movie with Christopher Lambert and perfectly directed by Russell Mulcahy. Great acting the Lambert and great ending of the movie.
- DirectorRandall WallaceStarsMel GibsonMadeleine StoweGreg KinnearThe story of the first major battle of the American phase of the Vietnam War, and the soldiers on both sides that fought it, while their wives wait nervously and anxiously at home for the good news or the bad news.Groundbreaking war movie. The director is using breath-taking ways to show the terror of the war. The result is one of the most neat and realistic was movies ever. Mel Gibson offers one of his best acting.
- DirectorSteven SpielbergStarsTom CruiseColin FarrellSamantha MortonJohn works with the PreCrime police which stop crimes before they take place, with the help of three 'PreCogs' who can foresee crimes. Events ensue when John finds himself framed for a future murder.Steven Spielberg shows with this movie that he can be brilliant director in action genre too. He offers us breath-taking action scenes, combined with touching story of lost son of Tom Cruise's hero. And the denouement of the story just knocked me out with its unique originality.
- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsLeonardo DiCaprioJoseph Gordon-LevittElliot PageA thief who steals corporate secrets through the use of dream-sharing technology is given the inverse task of planting an idea into the mind of a C.E.O., but his tragic past may doom the project and his team to disaster.It took a long time, before I recognize Christopher Nolan as a genius director (5 movies to be precise). The Dark Night was a great movie, but to write a story like the one in Inception...I believe it happens only once in a lifetime. Leonardo Di Caprio as usual plays exceptionally well and contributes for the greatness of the movie.
- DirectorMichael BayStarsBen AffleckKate BeckinsaleJosh HartnettA tale of war and romance mixed in with history. The story follows two lifelong friends and a beautiful nurse who are caught up in the horror of an infamous Sunday morning in 1941.Another masterpiece by Michael Bay. The center battle scene is incredible and breath-taking. Josh Hartnett make his break-though and since this movie, he is one of my favorite actors.
