The Most Dangerous Man in America 2009
Great film about the behind-the-scenes of the Vietnam War; Ellsberg makes for an interesting figure, moving from hawk to dove. Interesting parallels to the modern whistleblower Snowden,

Captain Phillips 2013
Another tense one from Greengrass. Tom Hanks is stellar as always. Loved how the film didn't seek to demonize the Somalian pirates. First half is stronger than the second, but overall this is a great docu-thriller.

Gravity 2013
Tremendous. Great shots abound here: tracking shots, first person POVs. Got really got caught up in this plot. The continuous backdrop of Earth is spectacular; sometimes nauseating, but that's a credit. Is it that easy to dodge space debris? Maybe not, but I was able to suspend my disbelief. Best first and last shots in a movie in awhile.

Exit Through the Gift Shop 2010
Banksy, Banksy, Banksy... This is an offbeat look at the rebellious, satirical graffiti/street art of various street artists, including the mysterious Banksy. The film focuses on the lesser Mister Brain Wash, but Banksy and his artwork are the real treat. Speculation abounds over whether this doc is put-upon by Banksy himself. I feel like it's the real deal.
