from IMDB.com: "Plot Outline: A group of scientists investigate a deadly new alien virus before it can spread." A group of scientists working in a room for 2 hours. You can't get more intellectual than that. (but seriously, it's a fine movie) | ||

Personally, I would suggest that Clockwork Orange did everything Fight Club wanted to do, but with so much more depth and subtlety. I don't get this, how can you compare them so directly like that, and what did Fight Club want to that A Clockwork Orange did better? You could say they are both about the established society versus anarchy, but they both had different points, different messages. But what I'm really wondering is how anyone would consider American History X as an "intellectual movie". | ||

But for some intellectual movies that probably haven't been mentioned here (dunno cuz I didn't read all the posts). Kinsey The sixth sense Meet Joe Black Finding Neverland Space odyssey 2001 Sphere Jurassic Park (yes, it's intellectual movie, book still better) Gorillas in the mist And when it comes to Kieslowski I'd go for his decalog instead of three colours, I don't like him anyway but decalog >>>> three colours. | ||

It brilliantly uses the Vietnam War as a context to ask big questions about the meaning of civilization. Any movie that takes Heart of Darkness and puts the story in the context of a recent war is already something of a phenomenon. This isn't to mention how well things like music, acting, and cinematography come together. It's one of the most memorable movies you'll ever see. | ||
