Description: (IN PROGRESS) Many different movies I’ve watched that were either GREAT or very good. Movies of all types: Psychological thrillers, Action, Horror, Unexpected moments, Badass, Tense, Edge of your seat, Thought provoking.. All different types/ genres/ feelings. Complied from a list I made of a bunch of really great/good movies. There’s a handful I don’t remember much of, but most are really good- some are INCREDIBLE. I’ve noticed a few have oddly low IMDB ratings, so don’t go on that alone.
