Remember the Titans (2000)

Denzel Washington- Plays a coach of a football team that is going to put black players with white players. This movie took place when that was unacceptable. This movie is so much more than football. & Denzel does a great job.
Radio (2003)
The Patriot (2000)

Mel Gibson- Plays a family man in the middle of the Revolutionary war. when the redcoats kill his son, he decides to get revenge. Awesome movie.

Tom Hanks- plays a mentally challenged man. Very sad movie, but a great one. Forrest's story will touch you.

Mrs. Doubtfire (1993)

Robin Williams- just had a divorce with Sally Feild, can only see his 3 childen very little. He acts & dresses just like a house maid/nanny to see his kids everyday. This movie shows how much he will risk & how far he will go for his kids.

Charlize Theron- plays a prostitue that turns into a serial killer, based on a true story, great movie.

Ray (2004)

Jamie Foxx- my honest opinion after watching this movie is he is a better actor than a singer. true story about Ray Charles, about his singing career, struggle & drug addiction.
Braveheart (1995)

Mel Gibson- he actually directed this film, & did a great job. this movie is about 3hrs long, but its worth it. he just does a fabolous acting job.
brownheadbarbie's rating:


Anthony Hopkins- locked up for being a cannibal/serial killer. but he is a very intelligent doctor. he helps Jodie Foster find a serial killer. he plays a very great spine chilling job.
