In the Line of Fire is a massively underrated movie.

RIP

Although real-life U-boat veterans made valid critiques of it, Das Boot is an incredibly stirring movie.

It's an enjoyable film, but the plot is kinda stupid.  Why would a psycho be so obsessed with some secret service agent?

I just watched the seemingly-generally-panned Troy recently. Despite the writer now having a terrible reputation, I rather enjoyed the film. RIP.
