“Million dollar baby” was good. Since you already knew that, here are some other recent (which means that I saw them recently) English films that turned out to be interesting :
– Assault on Precint 13
– Man on fire
– In good company
– National treasure
– Terminal
– Hotel Rwanda
– I, Robot
– Under the Tuscan Sun
– The Interpreter
Couldn’t stand “Harold & Kumar” – stopped the film after about 30 minutes. Also didn’t really like “Hitch” although it came recommended from many friends. Found the latter half of the film oh-so-cliched and Will Smith getting hammier by the minute. “Sideways” was just about OK. “Aviator” was very biographical (well, duh !) so if you like life-histories of great men, this one’s for you. “King’s Ransom” contains some funny situations, but reeks of overdone characters, and some improbable scenarios – not recommended. Yet to see “Upside of Anger” ; it’s got good reviews.
