- DirectorDean ParisotStarsJim CarreyTéa LeoniAlec BaldwinWhen an affluent couple lose all their money following a series of blunders, they turn to a life of crime to make ends meet.I think I've seen all, but about the last 30 mins of this one. It's on TV all the time, but I can never seem to catch it at the right time.
- DirectorGuillermo del ToroStarsRon PerlmanDoug JonesSelma BlairA demon raised from infancy after being conjured by and rescued from the Nazis, grows up to become a defender against the forces of darkness.I've seen about the first 30 mins and got disintrested.
- DirectorPaul WeitzChris WeitzStarsJason BiggsChris KleinThomas Ian NicholasFour teenage boys enter a pact to lose their virginity by prom night.I've only seen a view parts of this (no pun intended) and a few scenes were funny, but don't know about watching the whole thing.
- DirectorRobert AldrichStarsLee MarvinErnest BorgnineCharles BronsonDuring World War II, a rebellious U.S. Army Major is assigned a dozen convicted murderers to train and lead them into a mass assassination mission of German officers.I've pretty much seen the middle of this movie, but not the beginning or very end.
- DirectorLana WachowskiLilly WachowskiStarsKeanu ReevesLaurence FishburneCarrie-Anne MossWhen a beautiful stranger leads computer hacker Neo to a forbidding underworld, he discovers the shocking truth--the life he knows is the elaborate deception of an evil cyber-intelligence.I've seen the first 15 mins and it seemed okay, but I had to do other things and it was on a regular station so it had commercials, which I hate when watching a movie.
- DirectorMark RydellStarsJohn WayneRoscoe Lee BrowneBruce DernRancher Wil Andersen is forced to hire inexperienced boys as cowhands in order to get his herd to market on time but the rough drive is full of dangers and a gang of cattle rustlers is trailing them.I've seen the beginning and some of the middle and the ending.
- DirectorJohn GlenStarsRoger MooreMaud AdamsLouis JourdanA fake Fabergé egg recovered from the body of a fellow agent leads James Bond to uncover a jewel smuggling operation led by the mysterious Octopussy, and a plot to blow up a NATO air base.Along with almost every other pre-Brosnan/Craig James Bond films. I see parts of a lot of them on TV all the time, but never catch them from the beginning.
- DirectorNimród AntalStarsColumbus ShortMatt DillonLaurence FishburneA newbie guard for an armored truck company is coerced by his veteran coworkers to steal a truck containing $42 million. But a wrinkle in their supposedly foolproof plan divides the group, leading to a potentially deadly resolution.I've seen the last hour and know how it ends, but missed the first part. I feel like I've pretty much seen the whole thing though.
- DirectorChuck RussellStarsDwayne JohnsonSteven BrandMichael Clarke DuncanA desert warrior rises up against the evil army that is destroying his homeland. He captures the enemy's key sorcerer, takes her deep into the desert and prepares for a final showdown.This one just goes with this list and I don't really have much interest in it from what I've seen.
- DirectorStephen SommersStarsBrendan FraserRachel WeiszJohn HannahAt an archaeological dig in the ancient city of Hamunaptra, an American serving in the French Foreign Legion accidentally awakens a mummy who begins to wreak havoc as he searches for the reincarnation of his long-lost love.It's on all the time and seems interesting, but I've never really wanted to Netflix it.
- DirectorAntoine FuquaStarsRichard GereDon CheadleEthan HawkeThree unconnected Brooklyn cops wind up at the same deadly location after enduring vastly different career paths.I've seen very few scenes, but it seems interesting.
- DirectorWerner HerzogStarsNicolas CageEva MendesRussell M. HaeuserTerence McDonagh is a drug- and gambling-addled detective in post-Katrina New Orleans investigating the killing of five Senegalese immigrants.Any movie where you get to look at Eva Mendes has potential, but Nicolas Cage can be hit or miss.
- DirectorBen StillerStarsBen StillerOwen WilsonChristine TaylorAt the end of his career, a clueless fashion model is brainwashed to kill the Prime Minister of Malaysia.Another one that's on TV all the time and I never seem to catch it on time. I've probably seen the whole thing just not in order. Some parts were funny and others were kind of stupid.
