Question 4 movie review requests?

Just looking for some serious good/bad, worth it or not reviews for these DVD's, havent rented in ahwile and looked over some highly regarded on the internet, all of which Ive obv. Most are thriller type I believe & Ive heard of all but never seen any. Even grades (A to F) would be helpful. Tks guys!!!

28 Days Later
Traffic
Collateral
Insomnia


Thanks guys!!

BTW- from what Ive read im leaning Collateral as a definite and Insomnia or 28 as the 2nd one)

Tks Burn, seems everyone thought Traffic is the way to go. Im probably going to get 2 and since Traffic is a drama, I kinda want a thriller, which Imsonia supposedly is and 28 a horror. So one of those 2 may be my 2nd. Let the reviews keep coming as I may not reant any til tommorow. tks guys!!

Burn since you were the onyl to see 28, was it really a "horror" in the horror type sense as it sounds or more a thriller. Just dont want a friday the 13th or Night on Elm type gay horror., From what i read it is gory.

Insomnia's by chris nolan of memento/batman begins/prestige fame, guy's a great director. Really underrated film imo.

28 days later and Insomnia are both thrillers, just depends on what you're looking for...horror thriller, or a crime thriller.

28 isn't a hack and slash horror, it's more of a thriller mixed with sci fi and horror elements.
