This weekend my husband and I decided we wanted to see a movie at the Carmike Cinema in Stillwater. At first we were thinking about seeing the new Harrison Ford movie, Firewall. The first thing we decided to do was check the movie showing times at the Carmike Website. After we decided on a time to go see a movie we thought we would check to see how Rotten Tomatoes, a movie rating Website, reviewed the movie. We were disappointed to see that Firewall received a 19 percent out of 100 percent. This is when we decided to see something different.

Over the last weekend I was fortunate enough to become ill. While lying around doing nothing, I decided to watch a few movies that I had not seen yet. I started by watching the 1997 Suicide Kings. I picked this movie because it had Christopher Walken and Denis Leary as mobster. I have always been a big fan of the scary characters that Christopher Walken plays in many of his movies and so I decided Suicide Kings would be a good one to see.

Edward Norton is one of my favorite actors. He has had an amazing career from the very beginning. The first movie that he was in, he costarred next to Richard Gere in the 1996 film Primal Fear. Some of his most notable roles consist of the 1998 American History X,the 1999 Fight Club,the 2001 The Score, and the 2003 The Italian Job. This is just a short list of the movies he has acted in. I strongly recommend that everyone see American History X at some point. It is a very moving film.

Edward Norton has been in movies for every mood. If you are the type of person that really can’t stand Barney the purple dinosaur you should look into seeing Death to Smoochy starring Edward Norton alongside Robin Williams. Perhaps you’re in the mood for a romantic comedy, take a look at Keeping the Faith. Even if you’re in the mood to see some Hanable Lectre, you can go rent Red Dragon. Just take a look at the list of Edward Norton’s films and I am sure you can find something to entertain yourself.
