Unbreakable (2000)
M. Night Shyamalan, the heralded director of The Sixth Sense, follows up his mega-blockbuster with a very subdued but more profound thriller in Unbreakable. Although I admit that liked The Sixth Sense, I also must admit that...
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000)
Before watching this movie, I heard such high praise as “Best Film of the Year”, “Best Kung Fu movie of All-Time”, and even “One of the Best Movies of Any Kind Ever”. I can...

Frequency (2000)
FREQUENCY is a sleeper thriller, and one of the better surprises of 2000 that only a small amount of people went to see. This one has the Aurora Borealis phenomenon occurring in the same...
