12 Monkeys...rad. I just saw that movie last Monday. Good times.

For sure, watch Brazil...as long as it isnt the stupid US version.

I made a list of some movies I wanted to watch about a year ago and noticed some similarities to the ones you listed there. I still have my list, so here it is if you need more ideas:
Primal Fear
Keeping the Faith
Glory Daze
The Good old Boys
Courage Under Fire
Goodfellas
L.A. Confidential
Lost in Translation
The Day the Earth Stood Still
The Insider
Ed Wood
American Beauty
Trainspotting
The Untouchables
21 grams
Death Race 2000
Mad Dog and Glory
Magnolia
From Dusk till Dawn
Re-animated
True Romance
Killing Zoe
Desperado
Girl 6
Bad Lieutenant
Barton Fink
The Brothers McMullen
Casino
Blue Steel
Clockers
El Mariachi
The Frighteners
Hard Boiled
Love and a .45
Man Bites Dog

There are still a few that I haven't seen from that list mainy because I lost interest in it. Also, a few of them are not that great, so I suggest getting a summary for whichever (if any) movie you choose.

Oh...and dont forget Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior.

But whatever you do, DO NOT WATCH MAD MAX 3: BEYOND THUNDERDOME, because that movie was possible the worst movie ever made.

I highly, HIGHLY recommend Cinderella Man. It was the best movie I have ever seen, hands down.
