EXCELLENT

Oppenheimer

Nolan finally learned how to write dialogue. Also, Cillian Murphy's eyes should win an Oscar.

Columbus

GOOD

Columbus

Excellent movie. Shines in connecting day-to-day insecurities to the romance. Slightly bland with poor pacing.

Chungking Express

8.5
GREAT

Chungking Express

Yes I watched a dubbed version. Sue me. Some of the best cinematography I've ever seen. Wong Kar-Wai's Magnum Opus.

The Truman Show

GREAT

The Truman Show

The best part isn't the concept — it's the experiential nature. You ARE Truman. Jim Carrey made a movie with everyday expressions. Huge.

MASTERPIECE

Swades

Most overlooked SRK film. Khan the artist, not the actor. Hope Bollywood would shift toward works like this, but finances would never support it.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

GOOD

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Hard rating. An inversion of the Forrest Gump arc — struggles to maintain cohesive feel. Brad Pitt at his best. Personal favorite.
