Fast five ofc

[popeye123]

i like to watch horror movies so i think paranormal activity 3 was the best movie of this year...

[vindicatorx]

I, for one, am not. it's going to be an Americanized (read: simplified and sexually toned waaaay down) version of a great book, and a movie I already watched (the Swedish version, with subtitles =/ )

OT: I liked Captain America, and Thor, but LOVED Horrible Bosses

yeah you are so wrong on your prediction for Girl with the Dragon tattoo I thought it was way better than the Swedish version.

Source Code!!

gonna do a little top 5 best and worst of 2011:

Best
1-Thor
2-Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol
3-Captain America
4-Fast Five
5-Transformers Dark of the Moon

Worst
1-Apollo 18
2-Green Lantern
3-Sucker Punch
4-Pirates of the Caribbean 4
5-Grave Encounters

First post mentioned Sucker Punch and then someone mentioned Conan the Barbarian... Good god people...
I turned Sucker Punch off within 30 minutes, it was so bad. And I heard it was awesome from an old guildie, never take advice from him again.
Conan, I recently rented it, it just drug ON AND ON and the lighting was horrible. Probably done on purpose, but it wasn't BAD, it just wasn't GOOD.

Now, X-Men First Class was awesome. Regardless if they "shat all over the franchise". They've been doing that since the first movie. The movie was awesome, the only other super hero film I watched was The Green Lantern. I'd give it a 6.5/10.

The Hangover 2 was okay, not as good as the first one, better than most movies.
Bad Teacher was a good movie. Enjoyed it quite a bit.
30 Minutes or Less was great.
No Strings Attached definitely the best Romantic Comedy of the year, and far better than Friends with Benefits. I liked both though, Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis are both yummy.


I think I'll go with No Strings Attached as my favorite.

I detested Sucker Punch and HP8. I didn't watch Twilight4.

Was gonna say this, but was too lazy to google if it came out last year. Also, HP I cried when Snape died.

Too bad they totally botched the scene. Made me so mad, I wanted to leave. But my friends were having no part of that. It was the worst thing about the movie. Besides the last fight scene.
Actually, the whole movie was one big shit storm, like the rest of the series. They did not do Harry Potter justice. Just so bad. SOOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSO bad

29 m . I loved Suckerpunch, loved the dream sequence visuals and the way the movie was split/broken, was drunk I think and the chix wre hawt probably helped =p =)

Mission impossible 4 ghost protocol Is the best movie of 2011.I like this movie

[Deionara]

"Drive" , really ? Cut the 1st 60 minutes off the movie and you miss nothing, go straight to the scene where the womans head gets blown off in the highway motel and you've missed nothing in 60 minutes, im falling asleep!

Drive ? were you people stoned? Crappiest movie ive watched from start to end, what was their movie budget 50bucks ? the dialogue was pathetic, car chases driving trash, didnt even get much romance/love plot developed, and the ending was poor, leave the money? Totally unbelieveable trash movie just lost 90 minutes of my life thanks.

Sherlock Holmes 2! I think that came out in December but I didn't watch it until last week. I thoroughly enjoyed it! Especially the slow motion camera.

[Daphne Blake]

I liked Sherlock Holmed alot as well.

[tj119]

Completely opinionated, but Warrior, by FAR.

[Demonakat]

Definitely 50/50 for me. Just amazing.

Super 8 - Only winning because honestly, it's the only new movie I've seen lately. It was good but not exaclty a big shocker, I like how they left alot for you to figure out on yourself, until very late in the movie.

And I guess you liked Sucker Punch and Transformers 3?

Drive was one of the year’s best movies. You simply don’t understand the film. The story was fantastic, and Ryan Gosling was brilliant both in the action parts, but also in the emotional parts. Albert Brooks is relentless and Carey Mulligan plays perfectly the innocent love-interest of Driver.

just go with it, the hangover 2, and bad teacher

I have a feeling you never played Vice City or didn't like it, it felt like they made the game into a movie.

I'll save you another boring viewing : The American, I really liked it apart from the obvious ending.
