All for different reasons, very good movies.

Jarhead because it shows all the facets of war.

Pride and Prejudice because of great acting.

Derailed because of the ending and Clive Owen.

We read Pride and Prejudice in high school and when my teacher asked me what I thought of it i said "it could have used a car chase." Who knew you could still get sent to the hall when you were in 11th grade?

Pride and Prejudice is the only one getting good reviews and I wouldn't get caught dead watching that stuff.

Derailed was terrible. Had to watch it with the wife. It's like any Lifetime movie but with a Disney ending. i'm a fan of Clive Owen but to see him so wimpy was gut wrenching until that final confrontation.

Derailed was nothing special. Aniston being completely naked wouldn't have made it any better either.

I thought Jarhead was going to be something special, but the reports I've heard say different. It may be true to one Marine's experience, but from what I've heard it isn't true to what most people experienced.

Oh, and psychos in uniform usually don't last very long. They usually don't even get on the plane with the rest of the unit...

The other two haven't really sparked my interest, thought more Keira Knightly films are a good thing in general.
