In this topic let's list all your non-Christian related movies you'd like to share and that you have seen now or in the past.
Add a short review to it if you'd like, but you don't have to.

I watched the movie Don't Look Up. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11286314/

This was a good comedy which is an updated version of the movie Idiocracy in my opinion, where a world which considers itself smart and very technologically capable, has simply lost its mind. It has a great cast and many funny jokes throughout the movie.
Well-written and great acting.

Any of the Bourne movies
 
Three favorites of mine are about dancing, romance and a splash of drama.
'Strickly Ballroom' an entertaining story about fixed 'ballroom dancing' with funny characters from Australia.
'Step Up' of course w/Jenna Dewan who married costar Channing Tatum irl lots of drama here but a solid storyline.
'Take the Lead' w/A Banderas portraying the real-life dance instructor, Pierre Dulaine, who brought 'Dancing Classrooms' to low-income high schools.

I like that type of show also, with dance, or skating. An excellent one I saw
a while back was called High Strung, from 2016, rated PG. It was fabulous .:D

My top favorite movie is They Live (1988)

some other faves:
Once Upon a Time in the West (1968)
The Blob (1988)
Freaks (1932)
Southern Comfort (1981)
Invasion U.S.A. (1985)

and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005). I did not like the 1971 film at all and that's okay 'cause Roald Dahl didn't like that version either.

One of the best Westerns ever made. Heck, one of the best movies.

Yes. This movie is incredible. This scene, the scene where Robards is on the train, the street scene where Choo-choo's men attempt to ambush Fonda, and more...a lot of good scenes. For me, definitely a very close second to They Live.

"You bring a horse for me?"
"Looks like we're shy one horse."
"You brought 2 too many."

The soundtracks for Sergio Leone movies created by Ennio Moricone are also amazing and have made a lasting impression on me.
The national Danish orchestra has done justice to his artwork.

His best quotes weren't on his script.
They were all ad lib.
It's one of the most popular B movies after it was made. For some reason I think it might not have been promoted at the theaters. It's been too long since I heard the interview with Roddy.

For me, it's formaldehyde face.

"I take these glasses off, she looks like a regular person. Put 'em back on...formaldehyde face!"

Correction:

I was curious, so I just watched an interview with the producer, John Carpenter. He said that Roddy Piper handed him a list of sayings that he came up with and wrote for the wrestling matches. That's where those good lines came from.

I like a lot of John Carpenter movies. Assault on Precinct 13 (1976) is another movie I'm fond of, though not as much as They Live.

I don't remember that one. I'll need to look it up. There were a lot of good movies from the 70s. He made some major successful ones.
