This thread will be only for commending movies, and discussing them if you so wish to. Instead of clamoring up the section with threads (like I have been doing lately), we can just stick the movies that are worth a watch here.
If you post a movie that's worth watching - please include a description, or at least why it was worth watching. Descriptions for the movies will always be in spoilers.
