Salt


Inception is getting the attention, but this is by far the more exciting movie.

Probably the least predictable film I've seen so far this year.

El Secreto de Sus Ojos / The Secret in Their Eyes


If you go to the movies a lot, there comes a point when the great films come as surprises.

This film is a huge surprise, weaving together mystery, sadness, comedy, and so many other elements in pleasing and unexpected ways.

The Road


Like a zombie movie without zombies (mostly, except a little, sorta), nor any sense of joy.

Makes a PERFECT companion film to "Precious," in that both are relentlessly depressing, with only the thinnest possible veneer of hope at the long-awaited end.
