What was the last film that kept you on the edge of your seat?
It wasn't a great film, but "Breakdown" with Kurt Russell was my last.

1. "The Bourne Supremacy"
Good edge on the seat thriller.

2. Fight Club.
Went to see it with a group of friends. We got beer and smoked a joint before the movie. We each had a 40-ounce Budweiswer, and we finished that, then went in. All throughout the movie, we were ALL waiting for a break in the action where we'd feel comfortable getting up to take a piss (you can imagine what 40 ounces of beer does to one's bladder). That moment never came. As soon as the movie ended, there was a mad dash for the restrooms, and I took what had to be the longest piss of my life. Must've lasted five minutes. Heh.

3. Identity
Edited on Thu Sep-09-04 09:19 AM by sevenrox
As I recall, I think it would be "Identity" with John Cusack. It was one of those movies where everytime you thought you finally knew what was going on, you were surprised.

11. I thought that was a pretty good movie too.
Although I did piss off my husband by figuring it out before he did.

6. Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
I mean, those other dancers were SO good, I just didn't know if Janey and Jeff could pull it out.

But then when Lynne and the Colonel showed up to give their moral support, I knew Janey and Jeff would win the dance-off. And they DID, complete with a starring role on DTV! And they were in love, and it was beautiful.

10. Maria Full of Grace
Not a suspense movie, but I was holding my breath to see what would happen to the characters.
