In search of movie suggestions

Featured Replies

I'm looking for movies to download or buy. I'm into basically anything but I'm looking for psychological thrillers or films about self-growth, self-realization... basically films where the main character(s) realize things about themselves or change their lives for the better/worse. I'm also very interested in drug-related films (not only 'stoner' films.) If you have anything to suggest please post. :mrgreen:

 

This is what I have so far:

 

[hide]

 

127 Hours

Blow

Fight Club

Limitless

Pineapple Express

Salt

Smiley Face

The Lincoln Lawyer

Unknown

Scarface

Crazy, Stupid, Love (Meh)

Requiem for a Dream

That's part of character development, that happens in every film, unless it's an absolute [cabbage] film.

 

Super 8 is a recent film that is a great example of character development. Everything Must Go, is another good one, Thor has good character development, and so does Green Lantern. I'd recommend Animal Kingdom too, it's one of my recent favorites.

Hancock's pretty good. I've seen Super 8 and didn't like it very much, but I'm downloading the others you suggested.

Have you seen 28 Days Later? Same director that did 127 Hours.

Have you seen The Curious Case of Benjamin Button?

I've seen 28 Days Later a few times, I really liked it. I haven't seen Benjamin Button but I've read the short story. I'll check it out.

Jarhead. It changed my life forever.

Jarhead was alright. :)

Have you seen Cool Hand Luke? It's an old movie, but the message lasts a lifetime.

Just in general good films. There's a bunch more, but those are personal films and not everyone would like them.

If you do things right people won't be sure you've done anything at all.
