Astonishingly movies

Years ago I went on Netflix in the mood for a bad scary movie and decided on The Crazies with Timothy Olyphant. I was shocked how good it ended up being.

interesting fact, my buddy that i was in college with was an extra in that movie since it was filmed in Iowa.

I remember he had us sit down and watch it so he could point out the scene where he was running during the mass panic scene.
 
Movies outside of my normal comfort zone that I have been "forced" to watch over the years but ended up loving are:

For young kids the movie, "MIghty Joe Young". Just a nice all around movie and my kids loved it. Plus Charlize Theron is always easy on the eyes. I watched it many times with the kids and never once complained.

An adult movie that I walked away from stunned and still processing 35 years later is "Fried Green Tomatoes".
