The 12 Best Movies I Saw in 2004
#5 21 Grams **** (from 2003)
Sean Penn, Naomi Watts, and Benicio Del Toro star in this excellent movie about lives that intersect because of tragedy. Top notch performances all around, combined with non-linear storytelling make this a compelling movie. Sean Penn gave a far superior performance here than in the more publicized "Mystic River". Be warned though...this is not really a "feel good" movie.
