What to watch?

So I'm gonna watch a Movie from my On-Demand listings with NTL... not bothered if it's recent or not.
I'm split between an old family film I don't need to pay attention to, or something more involving.
What would you go for out of this list I've narrowed it down to?
Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey (The 1993 remake... seen it before)
Turner and Hooch (seen)
The Usual Suspects (seen, but very good)
Amelie (not seen)
John Lennon: Imagine (Autobiography) (not seen)
Snatch (not seen)
Reservoir Dogs (not seen)
A clockwork Orange (don't think I've seen it...)
This 7% beer is addictive

1. The Usual Suspects
2. A Clockwork Orange
Two very good movies.

All my friends love reservoir dogs, but I thought that it ended right when it was about to finally have a point. Snatch... is that the one with Brad Pitt? If so... it's pretty awesome.

Ok I've ruled out the family movies and thrown in two extra ones:
One Day In September (not seen)
Shooting Dogs (not seen)
Got about ten mins

Probably swaying heavily to shooting dogs based upon its description.
Anyone seen the Constant Gardener? That's an awesome movie.

Reservoir dogs was a little graphic for me. I am not usually turned off by blood and severed body parts, but there was something about that way that movie progressed that made me turn it off.

Amelie is a brilliant movie if you like quirky stuff. And Audrey Tautou is super fine. That helps.

Snatch.

Too slow
Nah, I watched One Day In September. Hardly a movie, definitely just a long documentary but I'm not disappointed
It's about the terrorist fiasco at the 1972 Munich Olympics for those who've not seen it. Nasty outcome.

RD...it's a tarrintino flick...their always f**ked up...thats what make them cool...unlike blockbusters which I can totally predict 99% of the time...
Snatch...Irish gypsie's bare knuckle boxers...that is a great movie...makes me proud to be part Irish
Clock work orange...Stanely Kubrick...another screwed up flick...totally wacked...but old compared to RD and Snatch...so in a slightly different way...
The three movies have violence...are screwed up...and at least two koo koo directors (Who did Snatch Guy Ritchie or something??)
Great movies...among my top fav for sure...although I don't watch alot of movies...so whats that saying i dunno

I would watch Clockwork Orange far above any of the other movies you mentioned. This movie is a classic. My second choice would be Reservoir Dogs.
