The high rating is more of a testament to the cast than the story itselfits decent, but Will Smith brings an extra level to this not-so-feel-good film.
Drama
Body of Lies
Ridley Scott plus Russell Crowe plus Leonardo DiCaprio plus political intrigue and action equal a thoroughly engaging thriller that will hopefully find more success on DVD than it did in theaters.
Juno
Juno has its moments of too cool for schoolness, but there’s a great big ‘ol heart in there that makes it worth it. Fo shizz.
Milk
Milk is, undoubtedly a must-see if youre looking for a lesson in the gay rights movement, but more importantly, its a beautifully crafted film about a man we should know more about.
Frozen River
Hopefully it will get a post-Oscar boost, because this gritty tale of a woman driven to great lengths to provide for her family deserves to be seen.
In Bruges
One of the best films of the year that a lot of people still havent seen, this tale of two hit men trying to be tourists is a dark comedy of the darkest variety.
