30 Days of Night

Takes only 30 minutes to kill everyone in town, but takes 45 minutes to wonder whether they're vampires? What, they've never watched a horror movie in Barrow, AK?

Monsters vs. Aliens

Even an animated Stephen Colbert playing the Axel F theme is hysterical.

(500) Days of Summer

Unique take on the shopworn true-romance tale. Ultra-strong performances, but that last shot? Why?

Black Hawk Down

What young-ish male actor is NOT in this film? McGregor, Piven, Bloom, Hartnett, Dancy, Gruffudd, Bana, and on and on...

Timecrimes

Schrödinger's cat t-shirt on the girl? Nice touch. (First 45 minutes are kind of a slog, bear with it.)

Dexter: Season 3

No-- Deb and Quinn, not Deb and Anton. Although, I suppose Quinn is a bit too orange for good taste.

Without Name

Sweet, romantic stuff. With more than a little dash of violence.
