My Top 10 Movies of 2011

Face it, I came to terms that I did not cry this year in the theater.

#10. Fright Night (2011)

The year that Collin Farrell could do no wrong. Although I did like "Horrible Bosses", on the second viewing of it, I felt Farrell was the only character who stood out. Sorry Mutherfucker Jones was simply ok.

#9. Win Win 

I love Paul Giamatti. Last year we had "Barney's Version". Win Win is dry and may lack to much real life for some who may want the "Harry Potter" mojo.

#8. Rango

I haven't liked a CGI/Cartoon since, "Monsters Inc". Now "Rango" is edgy for a kid movie. From the spaghetti western themes to an evil (looking) bad guy who appears at the end. 

#7. Life in a Day

If you are ever wondering if there is a movie that is breathtaking, real, and defines your life to be not as bad as it seems, then watch this movie. Everyone everywhere should watch this film that was shot on one. You will travel the world in one day.

#6. Everything Must Go

2011 must be the year of Dramadies. Theres nothing wrong with it. Will Farrell is amazing. 

#6. We Need to Talk About Kevin

....and the winner is.....John C Reilly for 2011 beating out buddy Will Farrell. With "We Need To..", the weird odd ball movie "Terri", and "Carnage" Reilly is by far a smooth actor with major chops. 

#5. Dale and Tucker vs. Evil

Yes! This is the perfect horror/comedy. Also perfect for those who don't like horror movies, but like laugh to at stupids. 

#4. Drive

Good example of how silence and pauses create an intense atmosphere...................... "wheres......... my...........scorpion..............jacket?" See! Ok, well I have chiseled abs too, but they are just coated for the winter time.

#3. Source Code

From the director of "Moon" comes this is a great movie, better than "Super 8". I actually hated "Super 8". 

#2. Midnight in Paris

Been awhile since I really enjoyed a Woody Allen film. Seinfeld moment,"but whats the deal with Rachel McAdams, bleh........

#1. Cedar Rapids

John C. Reilly is the man of 2011. I laughed my ass off. This movie may not be for everyone, but it was truly for me. I have no problems giving a comedy a #1 spot, as long as it did its job.
