Brawl in Cell Block 99. That was not a movie I would expect Vince Vaughn to star in. But I found it worked well with him as lead. Not your run-of-the-mill action flick, that is for sure.

Three Days of the Condor

Excellent flick. I thought Max Von Sydow stole the show. Also the book it is based on, Five Days of the Condor, is a good read. They chopped off two days to make the film move along faster I suppose. :P

Junction (apparently also called Hostage)
This was a surprisingly good film, but fair warning: it's a dark film. Not perfect by any means, but I thought the portrayal of the 4 meth addicts who were the main characters was really good. I thought the actors did a good job of showing the conflict their characters had (for the most part) about doing the right thing at each decision point, but weren't able to - sometimes because of the calling of their addiction but sometimes for other reasons.
It was a nice surprise that the involvement of the police in the movie didn't turn out to take the path that I was expecting the movie to take with it.
I wasn't a fan of the ending, but overall I was glad I watched the movie. Even if it's not a movie that made me feel good.
I watched it a while back on Amazon. I'm not sure where else it's available.
