One of the other forums I go to has one of these threads and I've been turned on to some good movies that other regulars just watched. I was kind of surprised not to see a similar thread here (at least not that I could find.)
I just rewatched "Kinamand" - a cute drama about a Danish plumber who gets involved in an arranged marriage with a Chinese illegal. Good stuff (Netflix instant.)
So what have you folks watched recently?

Watched Robin Hood last night, the one with Russell Crowe and Cate Blanchett. I liked it, and I'm not really into these medieval stories, but that didn't matter for this movie.
Watched Alpha and Omega with our daughter, thought it was pretty good. We enjoyed it.
I agree.
Banksy/MBW used the Obey/Andre the Giant thing, but that was created by Shepard Fairey (the same guy who created/lifted the Obama/Hope design).
Either way - great movie.
Okay...I could get behind that.
If that were the case, I might like it even better.

True Grit: Pretty good. I watched it because everyone here seems to love it. For some reason, I keep thinking that there will be some sort of twist at the end, which there wasn't.
Recently I watched 'Guzaarish", a Hindi love story about a quadriplegic former-magician and the relationship with his caretaker, and his fight for his right to euthanasia/mercy killing. Pretty interesting story, I'd definitely recommend if you're into quirky foreign films

I'm re-watching the original Dark Shadows series.
Oddly, the small budget religious production The Omega Code with Michael York was much more entertaining.
Due Date - average comedy. some funny parts, 2.5/5
Unstoppable - Decent action thriller, 3/5
The Social Network - Good movie, 3.5/5
I did find it funny that Kathy Bates had a role as the tutor. Whenever she was on screen I kept thinking "Foolsball is the devil".

"I Think We're Alone Now" - A documentary about two creeps/stalkers who are all about Tiffany (the singer) - it. I would have liked it more if it was a bit more polished/better thought out in terms of sequencing.
"Blue Valentine" - Very good film. Michelle Williams was excellent in it.
"Red Cliff I" - Pretty good. I'm glad they didn't resort to too much of the "flying dude on wires" gimmick.
