Re: Convince us...
I have to agree upon "12 Monkeys": this really is a movie one must have seen. It's not a movie easy to understand and has some strange and difficult contexts which make it very interesting and thrilling. I say, when you give "12 Monkeys" a chance and watch the first half hour you will be bonded and won't want to turn off the video.
And another reason to watch this movie is - of course - Bruce Willis. ;-)
