Instant Play triple shot

Lately I've been watching most of my flicks on Netflix Instant Play... Aside from watching all four Eddie Izzard concerts, here's what I've enjoyed over the holidays...

Ink -- An interesting low-budget but ambitious dark fantasy, draws comparisons to many other movies (Matrix, Terry Gilliam flicks, others), but is really fairly unique, and in spite of its flaws, kept me hooked; sort of a B+ movie...

Enemy Mine -- I saw this a long time ago and had a vague memory of it being good; now it is quite dated on effects, but the story is still very strong and affecting...

Godzilla: Tokyo S.O.S. -- I don't know why, maybe I was just in the right mood, but this is the first Godzilla movie I really enjoyed; the effects were top notch, and the overall fight sequences kicked ass. The plot and characters were mildly interesting and didn't slow the pace like they seem to in many Zilla flicks.
