We recently rented 50 first dates. It isn't an oscar winner but very cute and entertaining.

Anything 80s... or Can't Hardly Wait. Whenever I can't decide, that's the one I get.

I watched Along Came Polly....my boyfriend laughed hysterically while I just thought it was silly....so if you cannot find anything else to rent- rent this one! I give it a B.

On the other hand I really enjoyed Miracle...the story about the 1980 Olympic Hockey Team! Very interesting and heart wrenching! Rent this one! I give it an A!!

If you love Rock and Roll, rent The Last Waltz by The Band. It was directed by Martin Scorcese, and in my opinion, its the best rock movie ever made.

It was The Band's final concert before the original lineup broke up for good. Some friends joined them on stage; Eric Clapton, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Muddy Waters, Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison, and more.

Absolutely amazing. I've probably seen it 100 times, and I never get tired of it.

The Royal Tenenbaums. We rented it so much that we decided to buy it, and we seriously watch it all the time.

Playing by Heart is my favorite movie, and not many people I know have seen it.
Actors include: Ryan Phillipe, Sean Connery, Gillian Anderson, Jon Stewart, Angelina Jolie, Dennis Quaid, etc etc etc .
A very sweet, dramatic, funny movie.

I ended up renting Mystic River and Calendar Girls.

Both were great movies. Mystic River is so sad and depressing, but I definitly see why Sean Penn won the Oscar. he gave a fantastic performance.

Calendar Girls was funny, touching and sweet. Most definitly a chick flick though.
