We all come down to the wire and find were one gift short. Here are a some suggestions to pick up on your last minute Christmas shopping spree.
Serenity – If you want scifi action mixed with great comedy and strong characters this is for you! It also has one of the best villains of all time!
Moon – This movies is hard for me to explain. It has a 2001 feel to it with a Castaway feel to it but with so much heart. Sam Rockwell is just amazing and brings so much emotion to what could be a stale character. And what Kevin Spacey is able to accomplish with just his voice is equally amazing!
The Prestige – In my opinion one of the best revenge / rivalry movies of all time! Both Hugh Jackman and Christian are excellent not to mention another fine performance from Michael Caine.
Being There – Being There is an incredible example of what a consummate comedic actor can do with a fiercely challenging role. An oddball comedy starring Peter Sellers, Being There is the story of an extremely simple man named Chance. In a character that may be his most unusual and best Sellers manages to stay in character and by “chance” and childlike trust charms some of the most powerful people in the nation. Every film fan needs to see Being There at least once.
