Dread (2009) I watched this today. Thought I'd turn it off after 30 minutes, but it was really good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nlZv2NForrY

I might be the only person who’s not a Tom Hanks fan but I did enjoy Larry Crowne

Galaxy Quest (1999)

Caught it on cable one night. Turned out to be one of the bests comedies I've ever seen.

I think GQ has quite a following (no, not the magazine).
At first it seemed rather silly and dumb, but after a bit it seemed to have a good heart and a fair wit to it.
How bad can a movie with Sigourney Weaver, Sam Rockwell and Alan Rickman be?

Exactly. I would watch Alan Rickman read the phone book. He was a fine actor. RIP

Cocktail (1988) by really good I simply mean it was entertaining and I have rewatched it a few times. I am not claiming it be a work of great art.

Reservoir Dogs. For quite some years I wouldn't give Tarantino a chance.

Derailed.

I thought it would be crap as Jennifer Aniston is in it but it was actually a really good thriller.
