Here's a suggested order in which to watch these films:<br><br>1: Running on Karma<br>2: Men Suddenly in Black<br>3: The Mission<br>4: Expect the Unexpected<br>5: The Odd one Dies<br>6: Running out of Time<br>7: You Shoot I Shoot<br><br>It's hard to pick just 2 but that's just my opinion. Flip a coin for the rest.<br><br><br>Magic-8<br>

1. I didn't see Running out of time but The Mission is pretty good movie.
2. Expect the Unexpected has more drama, more action and very strong ending. The Odd one dies more of "arthouse" and has many similarities with Fallen Angels of WKW. Personally I'd choose Expect the Unexpected - in Odd One Dies I like only one scene - where Takeshi runs away after murder.
3. Spacked Out. Gimme more mainstream and predictable and the ending is letdown.
4. Both are complete trash.
5. Men Suddenly I didn't see, but You Shoot, I Shoot is kinda sloppy. Many good ideas and many misses.

I'd prefer Running out of TIme, Running on Karma, PTU, and Men SUddenly in Black out of them all. Sorry but these are the only ones i saw.

Out of the one's listed I've only seen Running Out of Time and You Shoot I shoot. Running out of Time is pretty good. You Shoot I Shoot has it's moments, but over all is pretty stupid.
