  • DH taking me out for my bday. REALLY want to see a movie. Have already seen Slumdog and happen to the one person who didn't like it. Not in the mood for anything depressing/heavy but hate Shopaholic type movies. Any reccs or should I just bag and go out to dinner? Don't seem to be many good options out right now.

      • np I would qualify that as a shopaholic/satc type movie. basically a chick lit come to life

        • op: I haven't seen shopaholic, but assuming that SATC is incredibly intellectual compared to that. I actually wouldn't mind seeing something like SATC, just not anything fluffier than that. I have my standards, you know! :)

    • I thought Mickey Rourke's performance in The Wrestler was one of the best I have ever seen and I am not one who would generally like movies about wrestlers and strippers.

      • I second this suggestion. You'd think it would be depressing, but oddly it's not -- and it's VERY well done.

        • NP: I found it a sad as well as inspiring (better for OP to be prepared that there is a sad undertone throughout)

    • Frozen River is really good. Tell No One is a good thriller. Rachel Getting Married is still in theaters, also good.

    • The Reader. Not depressing despite Nazi theme.

      • Unless you are a Jew. You are not allowed to watch if you are a Jew. It portrays one Nazi in a positive light.

            • the or here said he/she can overlook the 'nazi' them. the next reply said oh not if you are jewish. i am saying - genocide cant be overlooked by me even if i am not directly part of the people who were being massacred. so you are questioning if i care less about any other humans besides those that are jewish?

    • This maybe to silly for your taste, but Tropic Thunder is actually pretty funny. If it's still playing. I'm an action junkie, so I want to go see Taken. Liam Nessam (sp) is so hot.

    • Coraline. I saw it on Valentine's Day when I wanted to avoid all the overly-serious stuff in the theaters right now. It's pretty good. Not too juvenile and has some nice artistic animation.
