Hell or High Water (2016)
Before the hit TV series Yellowstone was a twinkle in Taylor Sheridan’s eye, he penned contemporary Western Hell or High Water, which earned him an Oscar nomination for Best Original Screenplay. Certain aspects of the film — a sense of outlawness, the exploration of moral codes, the ambiguity of justice — carry over to Sheridan’s current work, like the various Yellowstone shows and Mayor of Kingstown.
Hell or High Water stars Chris Pine and Ben Foster as brothers who rob banks in rural Texas. This desperate act is fueled by the desire to save their family ranch. Unfortunately, Texas Ranger Marcus Hamilton (Jeff Bridges) is hot on their trail and determined to bring them down.

The Triplets of Belleville (2003)
This quirky, charming French adventure was the first PG-13 nominee for Best Animated Film in 2003 (where it ran into the behemoth Finding Nemo). The inventive, unique style of drawing pairs with a thrilling story, all told with very little dialogue and mostly pantomime.
An elderly Frenchwoman named Madame Souza finds herself embroiled in international intrigue when her grandson and Tour de France cyclist Champion is kidnapped by the mafia. Along with faithful hound Bruno, she pursues them to the city of Belleville. There, she befriends a trio of music hall singers, who help her in the quest to save her grandson.

The Breakfast Club (1985)
The coming-of-age classic is as relevant to today’s teens as it was to GenXers. The story works because of its simplicity: five high school students from different walks of life are forced to serve Saturday detention. Each fits a distinct category or clique: Confident jock Andrew (Emilio Estevez), popular princess Claire (Molly Ringwald), brainy nerd Brian (Anthony Michael Hall), oddball outcast Allison (Ally Sheedy) and troublemaking rebel John (Judd Nelson).
But over the course of the day, as they reveal their innermost thoughts and feelings, the seemingly insurmountable social barriers between them fall away. They discover they are not so different from each other in all the ways that count.

Zombieland (2009)
The zombie drama’s set-up isn’t particularly unique — a virus ravages the world and turns many humans into flesh-eating undead monsters — but the appealing character and sharp wit make it stand out among the hordes.
A geeky college student known as Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg) joins forces with three other survivors: Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson), Emma Stone (Wichita) and Little Rock (Abigail Breslin). As they journey to a rumored safe haven in Los Angeles, Columbus devises a list of rules to help them survive the zombies.

Heat (1995)
Michael Mann’s suspenseful thriller is considered a classic thanks to phenomenal performances from Robert De Niro and Al Pacino. They spend very little time together on screen, but when they finally face off in a tense diner scene, fireworks ensue.
De Niro is master thief Neil McCauley, who is dealing with the recent actions of a volatile, rogue crew member. Pacino is Lieutenant Hanna, who is looking to capture McCauley while tending to difficult personal problems. With a final heist in the works, the cop and robber will necessarily clash — despite the respect they’ve developed for each other.

His friends (Paul Rudd, Romany Malco, Seth Rogen) decide to help him achieve the milestone with advice, social events and even a hooker. When Andy starts seeing Trish (Catherine Keener), he’s relieved when she sets a 20-date rule for having sex. But when the time approaches, will Andy be too nervous to do the deed?
