Where's Metro and the Deep Blue Sea? And don't give me that "they're not in my film collection" rubbish lol. Unless your house is the Tardis I'd say most of the threads of yours are mind collections only.

Where's Metro and the Deep Blue Sea? And don't give me that "they're not in my film collection" rubbish lol. Unless your house is the Tardis I'd say most of the threads of yours are mind collections only. Yeah, I respect that the OP has his ways of doing these threads/rankings, but Metro surely is a damn fine and fast paced/hard hitting action-thriller (Eddie Murphy should have done a few more of these back in the 90s), probably one of the better from the late 90s, and while I did not love Deep Blue Sea as much as Metro, Michael Rapaport still turned in with another good performance, and also had some very funny and memorable scenes, specially along with LL Cool J. Anyway, from those I have seen of the titles from the first post, this is how I would rate them: Cop Land (1997) - 8,5/10 True Romance (1993) - 8/10 Cop Land is a bit of a favorite of mine. And saw it not that long ago, and I think it has still hold up, very well. A fantastic gallery of both well known veterans, solid and familiar character actors (plus a whole bunch of Sopranos and Martin Scorsese regulars) and of course Sly and Ray Liotta holding their own, against Keitel and De Niro. But yeah, Rapaport did a solid job, too. Speaking of Michael Rapaport. Another nice 90s gem, is the drama Zebrahead (1992), where a white teenager falls for a black girl, and it soon causes frictions among their fellow folks, and a nice little surprise, which I rarely see mentioned, but comes with some good performances, soundtrack and is well worth to look up, for fans of Rapaport. Another one, not where he has the leading part, but he still shows up among the main leads, and it is a bit of a drama-comedy, with one hell of cast, and Ted Demme and his snowy-themed Beautiful Girls (1996) is another 90s favorite of mine.

I saw metro in the cinema, it was above average, tbh I’m surprised to hear anyone championing it, I assumed I liked it more than most as is..,

Good actor, not a very good person.

Good actor, not a very good person. Sad to learn of that, as he usually ends up playing very likeable and funny guys, but I guess that is maybe not always how things work out in real life.
