And now for a different set of movies

Other genre (Asian martial arts/philsophy):

A Hero Never Dies (male bonding, great plot, spectacular music - 2 themes)
Hero (great color sequences, good choreography, only Jet Li movie
I can watch more than once)
Warriors of Heaven and Earth (devotion/duty, spectacular scenery)
Last Samurai (ninja attack scene is great, Cruise fighting sword
master to a standstill is Ok, no Tom Cruise million-dollar grin!
hokey: Cruise only survivor at the end)
Dragon Inn (remake) Brigitte Lin (to die for) and Maggie Cheung
wrestling/fight scene is amazing.

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon (opening chase scene - drum music
is amazing to see and hear)

How's that for different?

Otherwise:

Dr Zhivago (music and scenery - balalaika version only on movie soundtrack)
Live and Die in LA (car chase)
Ronin (Car chases - imagine not knowing the origin of Ronin)
The Peacemaker (car chase)
Goldeneye (the legs of Famke Jansen!!!)
