Movies starring Matt Dillon

Rumble Fish (1983)

94 mins     Drama      

Whilst some adore them I tend to dislike movies which end up being style over substance, trying to impress and entertain by being artsy rather than through the story. And I was sure before sitting down to watch "Rumble Fish" ...

Bloodhounds of Broadway (1989)

93 mins     Comedy, Drama, Romance      

I kind of remember when "Bloodhounds of Broadway" came out but I seem to remember it not being much of a hit and having finally got round to watching it I can understand why. The trouble with it is that there is too much goin...

Singles (1992)

99 mins     Comedy, Drama, Romance      

Directed by Cameron Crowe "Singles" is what I call a generational movie, basically one which deals with the ups and downs of a specific generation. In this case we are talking about twenty something's as they deal with variou...

Beautiful Girls (1996)

100 mins     Drama, Romance      

Despite being a pretty straight forward romantic drama, "Beautiful Girls" is actually a cut above the majority as it is slightly darker than most and on top of this it combines the coming-of-age genre into the mix to make for...

In & Out (1997)

90 mins     Comedy      

How do you know someone is gay? They are fanatical about Barbara Streisand movies. Well that is basically the premise to "In & Out" starring Kevin Kline and Tom Selleck, a comedy revolving around being gay and the stereotypes...

Wild Things (1998)

108 mins     Crime, Drama, Thriller      

Trashy, tacky, cheap and obvious are a few words which could be used to describe "Wild Things" starring Matt Dillon, Denise Richards, Neve Campbell and Kevin Bacon. But then for some reason I also quote enjoy the movie and it...

There's Something About Mary (1998)

119 mins     Comedy, Romance      

I've lost track of the number of times I have watched the Farrelly brothers' "There's Something About Mary" but every time, even now 10 years plus since it was released, it still makes me laugh. Ironically "There's Something ...

One Night at McCool's (2001)

93 mins     Comedy, Crime      

"One Night at McCool's" feels like something out of the Tarantino play book with it's tale of one woman who enters the life of 3 men and we watch as each of them tell their interweaving stories of their relationship with this...

Crash (2004)

112 mins     Drama      

I like movies which take us on a journey through various storylines which somehow interlink, sometimes directly sometimes indirectly; they tend to challenge you to think about things differently as was the case in "11:14". Bu...

Herbie Fully Loaded (2005)

101 mins     Adventure , Comedy, Family      

Whilst growing up I must have watched many of the Herbier movies and whilst I suppose I enjoyed them they didn't leave any lasting impression. Maybe that's a good thing when it comes to "Herbier Fully Loaded" as it meant I kn...

You, Me and Dupree (2006)

108 mins     Comedy      

With a line up of stars which include Owen Wilson, Kate Hudson and Matt Dillon, you could be excused for thinking that "You, Me and Dupree" may be 2006's comedy success, to rival the likes of last years "The Wedding Crashers"...

Old Dogs (2009)

88 mins     Comedy, Family      

Old Dogs: John Travolta & Robin Williams are the bachelor businessmen and best friends who suddenly find themselves trying to care for two children from their past...

Armoured (2009)

88 mins     Action , Crime, Thriller      

"Armoured" is a curious movie because all the ingredients work on their own; Ty is a good guy just looking out for his family, the action is punchy, the storyline has potential and that cast is decent and play their parts wel...

Takers (2010)

107 mins     Action , Crime, Thriller      

Takers: a gang of slick robbers plan one last heist but not only have to be wary of the police but also a former gang member just out of prison...
