What movies made you ecstatic with praise?

True to my word in my review Friday, I saw WALL-E a second and a third time. And I just might go a fourth time this week.

Yes, I think it’s THAT great. Each viewing only reminds me of that. You know you love a movie when even three-star reviews irritate you.

So with that in mind, I ask you: What movies have made you just absolutely flip, praising it to the skies at every turn? What movies have made you repeatedly say to people, “You’ve GOT to see this one!”

Let me know. It can be a movie you’ve seen in a theater or at home. And while you’re at it, tell me what you thought of WALL-E. I particularly liked this comment.

'Hamlet 2' [movies]

Plenty of laughs are in store in the comedy smash of the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. Steve Coogan plays high-school drama coach Dana Marschz. While trying to stage a lighthearted sequel to Shakespeare's famous tragedy he faces laughable hardships including a bender that leaves him lurching into a liquor store on roller skates in search of the cheapest booze. His flock of students includes one mute girl who's the object of as many random assaults as Kenny from "South Park." And the stage production at the movie's climax includes a song called "Rock Me, Sexy Jesus." More »
