Snatch
Seen them both before but Guy Ritchie's first two films are so amazingly well-done.
Croupier
Clive Owen's first big break is still probably his best film.
A Clockwork Orange
Dr. Strangelove
Kubrick's two dark comedies. I can't watch them often but they definitely make my top ten.
Lord of War
Despite Ethan Hawke I enjoyed this film. He played the nemesis of Nicolas Cage, an arms dealer during the cold war. Dark comedy that some may find depressing, but not me.
Taken
Liam Neeson is an ex-CIA agent "preventer" who has retired in order to rebuild the relationship with his daughter. But when she gets kidnapped by white slavers, he gets to use his "lifetime of skills" to get her back. He is amazingly good as a badass.
