Five Movies to Add to Your Netflix

So, I've decided to give you five movies I enjoyed and maybe didn't get enough love. You should check them out. I'm gonna do this every week or so, so enjoy!

1. Nurse Betty (dir. Neil Labute)- One of the few movies to understand how a soap opera is made. I'm talking to you Soapdish and Tootsie. The acting is great and a solid supporting cast make this a comic and romantic film to try.
2. Kingpin (dir. The Farrelly Bros.)- One of my top 10 movies. I laugh every time I watch it. This movie is not as loved as Something About Mary, but it has some great performances and Bill Murray as Ernie Mcracken is another gem from him.
3. Gattaca (dir. Andrew Niccol)- Brave New World meets a 1940's film noir. This was Jude Law's big break and he is fabulous as is Alan Arkin and Uma Thurman. A lot of heady ideas are involved and it's a true testament to humanity.
4. Equilibrium (dir. Kurt Wimmer)- Not perfect, choppy, seems edited by committee. But, the fight scene are amazing and Christian Bale is quietly creating the most interesting filmography of his generation.
5. Grace of My Heart (dir. Allison Anders)- A movie for music geeks featuring characters based on Phil Spector, Brian Wilson, Carol King, et. al. A well done melodrama with some beautiful songs and a great central performance from Illeanna Douglas.
