Something like Amélie or something completely different would be great. Also no horror - not a huge fan of horror.

Both of the films Jansz listed are good. This one is a bit older, I enjoyed it.

Sometimes Scorcese really seems overrated. Especially this film. It's kinda like a Taxi rehash, except with Nick Cage and an ambulance. Some cool ethereal religious type moments, and great performances can't save a such a lame story. Marc Anthony was bad. The soundtrack is overbearing and horrifyingly pop-90's which doesn't make the film age particularly well.

Tell No One is a great little thriller.

It's available for streaming on Netflix, watch it.

Goddamn, that movie made me crave sushi ssoooooo hard! Just thinking about it is once again summoning the urge...

This was exactly my reaction. I want some sashimi soooo muuuuch right now. I may have to pick up some crappy grocery store sushi just to satisfy my craving. I know it will suck, but at least it's fish.

If there's a whole foods by you get sushi there. It's pretty legitimate.

There is, but it's almost 45 minutes from my house, and I work in a grocery store that serves sushi... not great sushi, but okay sushi. I'll get some on my break.
