"Lists of five films with one common element, but a different rating"

Interested in: No particular genre

Group Owners (4)

Description: This group is all about making lists of five films each. The films in each list share a common element (lead actor, director, etc...). Each film must have a different star rating from you. So one film has one star, another one has two, another three, and so on up to five. So there you go, who has made classics, crap, and everything in between?

Let me know



I just posted a few lists.  Let me know what you think.

 

I also wanted to do Barry Sonnenfeld as the director with:

5 stars - The Addams Family

4 stars - Big Trouble

3 stars - Men in Black

1 star - Men in Black II

So I didn't have a 2 star movie, but movies of his I haven't seen like Wild Wild West and RV seem like very good candidates.

Of course his cinematography work for the early Coen brothers movies qualifies him for several more 5 star movies.



     
Under discussion:

Men in Black  (1997)

Wild Wild West  (1999)

Big Trouble  (2002)

Men in Black II  (2002)

RV  (2006)

Re: Let me know



nice lists!

 I might try my own Tim Robbins list to see how it compares. i actually liked Arlington Road, but i have to agree with you that Hudsucker Proxy is pure genius.

Re: Let me know



Yeah for some reason I got a ton of hype on Arlington Road before seeing it, mostly with the claim that it had the greatest twist ending of all time.  The entire movie I was trying to come up with the most outragous thing that could possibly happen at the end.  What actually happened was so ludicrous I just couldn't condone it.  There was some interesting directing and pretty good acting though.

I also thought about The Player as another 5 star item.

I didn't want to put them on my list here because I need to see both of them again. I saw them both at a friends during a night of drinking so my thoughts on them are a little skewed.
