Yeah, surprisingly good considering I really didn't expect much when I started watching it. Speaking of Sean Penn, how about Carlito's Way?

Casino...is up there with the best of em :o

Casino was O.K. for me, but I thought it was just a stylistic knockoff/continuation of Goodfellas, which I thought was a better film. Minor quibble, both very good movies (not great IMO).

Mittheimp..my personal salute to you. Oh my god I can't believe :o I remember very vividly this movie. You know I haven't heard of this movie in donkey years. I love the movie. You know Indian students in my class didn't, and still don't, know about this great film. Good choice indeed.

For me, for sure it has to be Shawshank Redemption :D

Seven Nights in Japan

In the romantic drama Seven Nights in Japan, Michael York plays Prince George, the fictional heir to the British throne, a British navy officer. On shore leave in Japan, he meets Somi, a Japanese tour bus guide (Hidemi Aoki), and they have a brief romance. Attempts are made on the prince's life.

Syriana (2005). [Got some of the best lines ever:]

Prince Nasir Al-Subaai: What are they thinking, my brother and these American lawyers?

Bryan Woodman: What are they thinking? They're thinking that it's running out. It's running out... and ninety percent of what's left is in the Middle East. This is a fight to the death.

Danny Dalton: Some trust fund prosecutor, got off-message at Yale, thinks he's gonna run this up the flagpole, make a name for himself, maybe get elected some two-bit, congressman from nowhere, with the result that Russia or China can suddenly start having, at our expense, all the advantages we enjoy here. No, I tell you. No, sir. Corruption charges! Corruption? Corruption is government intrusion into market efficiencies in the form of regulations. That's Milton Friedman. He got a goddamn Nobel Prize. We have laws against it precisely so we can get away with it. Corruption is our protection. Corruption keeps us safe and warm. Corruption is why you and I are prancing around in here instead of fighting over scraps of meat out in the streets. Corruption is why we win.

Bryan Woodman: But what do you need a financial advisor for? Twenty years ago you had the highest Gross National Product in the world, now you're tied with Albania. Your second largest export is secondhand goods, closely followed by dates which you're losing five cents a pound on... You know what the business community thinks of you? They think that a hundred years ago you were living in tents out here in the desert chopping each other's heads off and that's where you'll be in another hundred years, so on behalf of my firm I accept your offer.

Jimmy Pope: Dig six feet, find three bodies. But dig twelve feet, you find maybe forty.

Prince Nasir Al-Subaai: When a country has five percent of the world's population but spends fifty percent of the world's military spending, that country's persuasive power is in decline.
