A man awakens from a coma, only to discover that someone has taken on his identity and that no one, (not even his wife), believes him. With the help of a young woman, he sets out to prove who he is.

I think many are missing intelligent hard-to-guess thrillers. This movie is exactly that, with a great acting and execution.

Two hillbillies are suspected of being killers by a group of paranoid college kids camping near the duo’s West Virginian cabin. As the body count climbs, so does the fear and confusion as the college kids try to seek revenge against the pair.

Another messed up, but not messed up comedy. There’s light absurdism thorough the movie, not too serious, not too stupid, what makes it very fun to watch for black comedy…

A group of people are trapped in an elevator high above Philadelphia, and one of them is the devil.

Just read the summary and notice Shyamalan as a script writer. Yah, that’s good. One of the best beginnings I’ve seen, and the movie doesn't get boring.

An adventure set in the early part of the 20th century, focused on a popular novelist and her dealings with would-be suitors, the cops, monsters, and other distractions.

A different movie from Besson, but among his finest. Kind of the family adventure movie you’d like to see. Isn’t too childish, has a solid plot, great acting and cinematography.…

Dave Lizewski is an unnoticed high school student and comic book fan who one day decides to become a super-hero, even though he has no powers, training or meaningful reason to do so.

A refreshing superhero comedy, what the Deadpool should have been. Kick-Ass 2 though is a notebook example of how bad the Hollywood‘s sequels are.

Unable to cope with a recent personal tragedy, LA’s top celebrity shrink turns into a pothead with no concern for his appearance and a creeping sense of his inability to help his patients.

Another great performance from Kevin Spacey and intelligent script makes it a good choice if you are looking for not too light, not too serious movie.

A frustrated man decides to take justice into his own hands after a plea bargain sets one of his family’s killers free. He targets not only the killer but also the district attorney and others involved in the deal.

Just like a thriller should be. Clever, tense, and to the point. It also has great acting and even some meaning for what it is, so it’s a safe bet.…
