I've seen most of these and would say ~they're not all that. Most of the relatively recent releases are aimed at the teen/YA group.
Two notable exceptions are Mud and Amelie. The former imo is a must-see. The latter is quirky and cute and I enjoyed it immensely but would hesitate to recommend it to anyone over, say, 45.

My son suggested "Mud" so I viewed it recently and I agree - worth a watch!
His girlfriend suggested "Amelie" but I haven't checked it out yet.
I am having a problem finding movies I enjoy lately. I end up going back to some of my old favorites and re-watching them.
You're not going to watch this with your spouse, right? RIGHT??
That link was supposed to queue up a list of 100 films. I did go through them and any that looked even mildly interesting, I had already seen. I did "save" one on Netflix to check out later, but not sure about it.
We tried to watch a movie last evening and started two and both were so depressing, we quit watching them maybe 20 minutes in.
I've been gone 19 days now and have driven about 3,500 miles so far. I am typing this in Little Rock, Arkansas. Started back towards home this morning from Blue Ridge, Georgia. There have been some great museums, concerts, and visits with cousins in multiple cities. Main area for me to explore on my way home is Albuquerque/Santa Fe.

Long trip - so, tell us what your route has been, both starting from home and now on your way home.

From home I took I-10 east through Phoenix and southern New Mexico. Then Austin, Texas and Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Spent at least one night in each of the following places: Lordsburg, New Mexico; Las Cruces, New Mexico; Fredericksburg, Texas; Austin, Texas (two nights); Baton Rouge (five nights); Tupelo, Mississippi; Nashville, Tennessee (three nights); Chattanooga, Tennessee (two nights); Blue Ridge, Georgia (three nights), Little Rock, Arkansas (probable two nights), then west on I-40 through Albuquerque.
I enjoyed the Bush (elder) presidential museum in College Station, Texas and the National World War II Museum in New Orleans. I drove the entire length of the Natchez Trace Parkway from Natchez, Mississippi to Nashville. Went to a fabulous concert by Ricky Skaggs at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville - also visited an automotive museum there and Andrew Jackson's home (The Hermitage). Saw the Tennessee Aquarium and some other stuff in Chattanooga. I visited in person with 10 cousins (not counting spouses, children, and grandchildren of cousins). Some of the cousins I hadn't seen for eight years.
I really enjoy these kinds of road trips. Thanks for asking.
