- Directed by John Woo
- Starring Tony Leung, Takeshi Kaneshiro, Zhang Fengyi
- This is John Woo firing all cylinders in an ancient China setting. The attempts at political setups are admirable, if not a little too biased towards the 'good guys', but Woo's usual flair for crowd pleasing action sequences is the definite star of the movie. Terrific acting across the board, especially by Tony Leung. -Comment written by Dear
- Directed by Guillermo Del Toro
- Starring Ron Perlman, Selma Blair
- Highly enjoyable. The acting and script is so very self conscious of the super hero genre that it pokes so much fun in itself (look forward to the show stopping duet between two of the main characters). The action sequences are terrific this time around as well. But the highlight is definitely Del Toro's unique blend of animatrics and CG animations in creating his fantasy world. It's like Pan's Labyrinth times 100, and the result is absolutely spectacular. -Comment written by Dear
- Directed by Christopher Nolan
- Starring Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, Aaron Eckhart, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Michael Caine
- I cannot find enough good things to say about this movie. This story is about the pursuit of justice and virtue, and the way it goes about exploring this theme goes far beyond the previous limits of a super-hero movie into the realms of classic crime sagas like The Godfather II. The movie has so many layers that each repeated viewings bring about another angle to the conflict that you might not have noticed before. I need not say anything about the stellar casts, who are all excellent, especially Heath Ledger's Joker, which is so memorable that it has become the real icon of the movie. Christopher Nolan has truly stepped into the best class of directors with this film, and I look forward to whatever he decides to create next. Bravo, sir, Bravo! -Comment written by Dear

- Starring Will Smith, Charlize Theron, Jason Bateman
- Despite great superstars Will Smith and Charlize Theron, this film is a failure due totally to its story.
