Two Movie Recommendations



In the past two days I have watch these two movies. I have to say that both of them are now probably in my top ten of all time.

First, currently in the theatres, Inside Man. Extremely creative and not your usual suspense, action, thriller that rambles along to a very predictable conclusion. Denzel, Jodie Foster and Clive Owen give amazing performances. Go see it!

Second, from 2001 and noted by megablogger, Justin Taylor as his favorite movie ever, is To End All Wars. I think this movie somehow slipped under the radar of the general public. After I watched it, I couldn't believe I had never heard of it. This is probably the most blatantly "Christian" movie that I have ever seen that was not billed as a Christian movie. The gospel is clearly portrayed and Christians in the movie are not typecast or seen as the village idiots. Plus, the acting and story are absolutely first rate. I can't recommend it enough, especially since it is based upon true events.
