This movie is about a drug task force going to Juarez.
As a movie: B+

As a movie: B-
Fun Factor: 6
Should you see it: Despite being a decent movie and having great actors in it such as the always amazing Orson Wells, it was a bit boring. Definitely see it just know you might doze from time to time. This will be okay because you won't miss anything.
6. Blood Simple (1984)
As a movie: A
Fun Factor: 8
Should you see it: This is the Coen brothers first movie, and even from the start you could see there talent. This movie has that film noir feel that is both fun and entertaining to watch. If your a Coen brothers fan who hasn't seen this go watch it. If your not a Coen brothers fan this movie is still for you.
7. The Shining (1980)
 This movie based on a Stephen King book is about a family who moves into a lodge to be the caretakers for the winter. The dad goes crazy and tries to kill his family. Also the boy has mental powers.

Should you see it: Reviews are mixed and a lot of people don't like it. I on the other hand love this movie. It's written by Stephen King, directed by Stanley Kubrick, starring Jack Nicholson, and features a weird scene with a man in a dog custom what's not to love.
