Movies Worth Watching-Trust me you won't regret

Let me begin by saying you will enjoy these movies only if you sit uninterrupted (a break or two is fine), undisturbed (please avoid loud friends and wives/husbands) and appreciate each dialog. If you are the kind who likes to watch downloaded/pirated movies in terrible audio formats and laptop screens then please do not proceed further as you will NOT enjoy these movies

1. Shawshank Redemption: For 2 hours you will curse why you sat to watch this movie and probably curse me too, you will feel depressed, pessimistic about life and wonder why the hell did they make a movie like this but trust me when I say the climax will BLOW YOU AWAY. And if you love Morgan Freeman, this is one of his many BEST. By the way Tim Robbins is the hero (Mystic River-Oscar for Best Supporting Actor)

2. Million Dollar Baby: Director Clint Eastwood's Oscar Winner. Again, if you love Morgan Freeman this is a must watch. This is a really serious movie about success against all odds. If you are from a small town and had big dreams and saved penny by penny and saw success the hard way you will identify with this movie. Brilliant performances, amazing dialogs and a fantastic climax. I sat there for 5 minutes motionless and speechless even after the end of the credits

3. Apocalypto: Warning: Not for the faint hearted. If you have high cholesterol and high BP please avoid (I have both and survived). Director Mel Gibson takes film making to a completely new level with unimaginable shots. The last half hour is literally "edge of the seat" stuff. Please avoid kids and faint hearted wives into your Home Theater for this one

4. The Dark Knight: The best of the Batman series. Way better than the terrible 1st 3, Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer and George Clooney movies. Heath Ledger's role of a lifetime. Tragically he died and then got the Oscar. You really get scared of the "Joker". The ultimate Hollywood "good over evil" movie. Again my favorite Morgan Freeman and Michael Caine. What a starcast...

5. The Hannibal Series: If you want to understand the whole scenario watch "Hannibal Rising", "Red Dragon", "Silence of the Lambs" and "Hannibal" in that order. Anthony Hopkins at his demonic best and Oscar winning performances of Jodie Forster and Anthony Hopkins in "Silence of the Lambs. The stories might seem a little unbelievable but these things happen, serial killers, psychological profiling and cannibalism exist in this world. Again not for the faint hearted. No kids please
