    Oldboy is like in my top 10 favorite foreign films of all time.

    300 is silly comic book fare but damn it's a visual wonder.

    Yeah, Oldboy is a seriously gritty film. It grabs you and does not let go. Even after it's over, it doesn't let go.

    Really surprised that the numbered movies, especially 300, are getting so many votes.

    Seeing 300 in theaters is one of my most favorite theater-going experiences ever. It's a freaking adrenaline rush. When I got out of that first showing I felt like I was high.

    Agreed. I will never forget being completely floored by that ending. Kudos.

    Minority Report is a dark horse in this tournament.
