10 Cloverfield Lane

What a film--a lot of really horrific things take place over the course of this story.

The most appalling of all is a sandwich made of marshmallow fluff & peanut butter.

Flight

The pilot in this film is named Whip Whitaker, which somehow reminds me of some other famous pilot.  

The movie is not like its own preview, which in this case, is a shame.

Argo

If you don't love the great drama, you'll love the sci-fi-takeoff-cheesy bits; if neither of those appeals to you, you'll marvel at the real-life roots if the story.

If none of those is the case, to hell with you.

ParaNorman

A beautiful animated film that adults can enjoy--artistically-crafted, funny, and smart.

Which is fine, I guess, if that's the kind of thing you are into.

The Artist

Wow—this is hands-down the best movie I’ve seen all year.


It’s perhaps the only one out there to deserve an Academy-Award nomination.

The Princess and the Frog

It's been yeeeaaars, but finally Disney's made another traditionally-animated film, & I'm glad they're back.

Lots of laughs, lots of fun-- my only complaint is the use of Randy Newman for the music (almost always the worst part of a Pixar film).
