Movie Theater "Sensative" movies that don't suck

Re: "Sensative" movies that don't suck


A classic,.."Where the Red Firn Grows",...a boy and his dog, it doesn't get any better than that.
 
Re: "Sensative" movies that don't suck

Departures

Maybe the highest-rated reviews I've ever decided to see 'on the blind'... I remember the Amazon rating was something like 97/0/0/1 when I saw it, and the '1' was for a bad disc or something.
 
Re: "Sensative" movies that don't suck

Greatest Game Ever Played- real story about America and sports. Very good.
Rudy- one of the best sports ones.
Apollo 13.
Last of the mohicans-violent, but oddly touching, last scene is very thought provoking.

Re: "Sensative" movies that don't suck

Secondhand lions. With a great fight scene:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkccqolaVGg

" I'm Hub McCann. I've fought in two World Wars and countless smaller ones on three continents. I led thousands of men into battle with everything from horses and swords to artillery and tanks. I've seen the headwaters of the Nile, and tribes of natives no white man had ever seen before. I've won and lost a dozen fortunes, KILLED MANY MEN and loved only one woman with a passion a FLEA like you could never begin to understand. That's who I am. NOW, GO HOME, BOY! "

I was watching Black Hawk down for the umpteenth time and this scene always gets to me. According to people who've read Mark Bowen's book, it's Master Sergeant Gary Gordon's letter to his wife and kids.

I know it's not a sensitive movie, but didn't want to create a thread about it.
 
Re: "Sensative" movies that don't suck

How bout Step Brothers.. JK I thought The Note Book was cool
 
Re: "Sensative" movies that don't suck

Well if we're trying to come up with touchy, feely movies I'd go with Apocolypto, odd but emotional movie. For pure gratuitous violence and entertainment it would have to be Pulp Fiction. Seen it a hundred times and still end up watching when I stumble on it.
 
Re: "Sensative" movies that don't suck

"As Good As it Gets"

My wife only likes chick flick type movies and it is one of her favorites.
I like it cause Jack Nicholson put's the gay neighbor's pooch in the trash chute and cause he says things to other people that we would all wish to say at just the right time.

Re: "Sensative" movies that don't suck

"A Family Thing" with James Earl Jones and Robert Duvall was excellent.

"Green Mile" was also very good.

"Sleepers" was superb.

Re: "Sensative" movies that don't suck

If you love baseball and have ever played catch with your father, ten bucks says you tear up at the end of field of dreams.

Maybe its just me, but there's nothing like two leather gloves and a simple ball.

Re: "Sensative" movies that don't suck

The Yakuza, by Sydney Pollack.
martial arts mixed with Mitchum and his shot gun
terrific cinematography
lots of exposition
but surprising twists

if you believe in an honor code and 'burden hardest to bear' (owing someone a debt that can't be repaid)...

this is a movie for you! slow cause its from the 70's, exposition heavy but I've been studying it cause it times certain key reveals in such a fashion that it takes a simple story and makes it rather complex...but still has such a strong theme that it resonated with me...perhaps cause I was raised to keep my word
 
Re: "Sensative" movies that don't suck

August Rush and Where The Red Fern Grows

Excellent recommendation. I can't stand looking at Reese "I stole Jay Leno's chin" Whitherspoon, but it still was worth the watch.
