Snow Angels - Kate Beckinsale plays a small town single mom in a place with lots of snow (and still manages to look hot) and Sam Rockwell plays her recovering alcoholic ex who tried to kill himself and just wants to see his daughter. there's also a parallel story about some teen Kate used to babysit for. anyway, pretty good acting, good dramatic story...hard to explain too much more without giving plot away, but it's a similar tone to Ang Lee's
The Ice Storm. Also, Tommy Kelly from
Johnny Dangerously is in it...oh, and so is Jerry Blank from
Strangers With Candy and Juno's friend from
Juno P.S. I am a loser and know the real names but it's easier this way

8/10Forgetting Sarah Marshall i wish i'd forgotten to add this to my queue, and not just because the unrated edition contains a bunch of man-crank. it was an OK movie i guess, but not so much funny. at least i got to see a photoshop of Mila Kunis' bewbz...now if only Kristen Bell would have flashed her goodies i could have given it a better grade

6/10Chopper -
wiki wrote:Chopper is a 2000 Australian film, written and directed by Andrew Dominik and based on the semi-autobiographical books by Mark Brandon "Chopper" Read. The film stars Eric Bana as the eponymous "Chopper" Read
translation...Eric Bana plays quite possibly the biggest freakin whack-job i've ever seen on film...and not in an over-the-top-TCM sort of way, but in a really convincing wow-that-guy-is-whack way
Note: this movie is in Aussie and was quite hard to follow at times, sub-titles would have helped
