Burnt by the Sun  (1994)

I watched this movie in one of my Russian language classes a few months ago.  It's definitely a drama with love, envy, regret, and honor all playing key roles in it.  It's so amazing how Kotov has a positive outlook on life the whole way through, considering his situation.  And the ending is one I'll never forget.  If you're a fan of foreign films, this isn't one to miss.

Gone in 60 Seconds  (1974)

Good: Lightly entertaining, perhaps? The tiger in the back seat was genius!  That's about it.

Bad: The ending chase scene took up seemingly half of the film and was unrealistic with a million cop cars destroyed for one stang they couldn't halt.  Horrible acting by most all cast members.  Voice-oversdidn't always match, as well.  The list goes on...
