I have only seen the below ones of the list and so have put what I thought about the films

I have given a brain usage rating in blue

Crank - I thought it was stupid, but watched it because Jason Stratham was in it - a no brainer
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - when you finish it you will keep thinking 'wtf?!' - I had to use my brain mildy
Fantastic Four - Rise of the Silver Surfer - easy no brainer fun... Jessica Alba - hubba hubba!
Get Rich or Die Tryin' - erm.. thought this was just a blatant opp for 50 cent to sing his tunes... was ok... watch if you are desperate and seen all the others - no brain required.
Silent Hill - scary zombies and wingid creatures!!! ARgghh! I hid for most of it
The Illusionist - BRILLIANT!!! mmmm Christian Bale... but out of all of them I would recommend this... will require mild brain activity but will make you
Transformers... and of course this one I recommend no brains needed
The Usual Suspects - watched it 4 times but never straight through to the end I think you might need to use your brain for this film... I didn't... I always seem to fall asleep
X-Men - The Last Stand - love X men Hugh Jackman....phwahor no brainer easy film

I think you're getting it mixed up with The Prestige. I'm pretty sure the Illusionist is Edward Norton.

As I said yesterday, I watched half of Transformers and couldn't suffer it any longer so I gave up. Didn't watch anything last night as I was sleepy and couldn't watch any through the day today as I actually managed to find some work to do

I have just finished watching Silent Hill. A most enjoyable watch, a decent mix of suspense and gore and a complete WTF ending - excellent stuff. Pity about Sean Bean, terrible actor IMO but his involvement is minimal enough to not matter too much.

Pheebs, watch it, the zombie things are waaaay cool, Roberta, you were right, I loved the scary blind nurse - should have been more of them. BBx, watch it properly, there's not much to be scared of ya big wuss

A little concentration required for this one but not huge amounts - nice film

Might have to give the game a go - or at least one of them.

Damn right, Crank is never going to be a classy film but entertaining it is certainly and I respect the fact that Statham knows it isn't going to be a film that requires respect. It is a bit stupid but it is massively entertaining for all that and I reckon that is about all I need
//edit, all I can see is people that should know from before with crank, whoops, If I'm not paying enough attention to people who want an upload or something else then just kick me in the nuts or well just kick me anyway and I'll sort mself out.

//really late edit, my first edit doesn't even make sense to me properly.
