my favorite this week is "district 9", a sorta sci-fi film for guys like me who don't like (or understand) sci-fi. made by a first-time south african director (albeit under the aegis of peter jackson), it's a really imaginative, sad, socially-conscious story about a mass of cool-looking aliens who get stranded on earth. many things get blown up, hearts are broken, tears are shed. three thumbs up.
i dunno if tarantino qualifies as "off hollywood", but "inglorious basterds" also kicked serious ass.
