Some smaller, limited releases I've seen this summer in theatres were Mr. Nobody and Exit Through The Gift Shop, both of which I really enjoyed.

I'm guessing that this is the one with Ryan Reynolds in it, and i have to say it wasn't very good. It was trying way too hard to be deep and high meaning, resulting in it being confusing and lackluster in my opinion. Just my opinion though, i do love Wristcutters though.

If anyone likes Joseph Gordon Levitt, they should definitely check out Brick, it's an amazing throwback to filmnoir and JGL does a TERRIFIC job.

City Island (It's a newer movie and I'm not sure if it's mainstream or not cause I have no idea what's going on in Canada right now with movies lol)

This is seriously one of the best shows I've every seen.

Also, Der Untergang is a great movie.

That's the one I was talking about. I really liked it, although I think a lot of that was because I had no idea what to expect going in (had never seen a trailer, and only heard the title through the recommendation). I definitely didn't find it confusing or trying to hard though.


Also, it turns out the American version of Let The Right One In (shortened to Let Me In) was really well done. Did not see that coming.
