Enigma

You start off watching this flick, and you think you may have made a mistake. The lead-in is flat, there's a little too much Britishness...and then, amazingly enough, it kicks in, and "engrossing" is the word that springs to mind. Ultimately you get a tight, entertaining drama for your two hours. One distracting note: Dougray Scott spends the entire movie looking like he's been mugged by pipe-wielding bikers; hardly classic leading man material.

The Winslow Boy

Surprisingly entertaining story about a now obscure case of a young boy's trouble in WWI England, and his family's quest for justice. An interesting look at, among other things, an early example of a mass media-driven public sensation.

Mimic

Eh...it won't kill you, but it won't excite you either. Besides, everyone already knows the roaches in New York City are big, mean and pushy...whether they're riding the subway or not.
