Contraband is a really great movie. Starts out slow but gets really intense half way through. Great bad guys. Great good guys.

District 9 was ok.

Nolan's Batman movies

Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes is, for me anyway, definitely the most surprising movie of the past couple of years.

Last night, I saw Follow Me; The Yoni Netanyahu Story, a new documentary about the life of Yoni Netanyahu, a young Harvard-educated Israeli commando who was shot and killed during the Israeli raid made on Entebbe in early July 1976, in order to rescue and free Israeli Jewish hostages who were in danger of being killed by terrorists. Not only was the life/childhood of Yoni Netanyahu covered, but the documentary showed all the plannings that went into making the raid on Entebbe, with much pained and careful thinking, deciding that it was necessary.

While I don't agree with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's policies, Follow Me was an interesting film to see. What I found troublesome about it, however, was the fact that the glorification of war and dying for one's country was there for all to see.

Rodent, Rise of the Apes was indeed surprisingly good.
Another movie that surprised me was 21 Jump Street, I would recommend it.

Basically the best film of the year and quite possibly the best in the last ten years:

I'm not a fan of hockey, but Goon was actually pretty good

I just watched it's kind of a funny story. Pretty good film. Should have been better but I'd give it 3 out of 4 stars.

The Greatest Movie Ever Sold

I'd say it's worth a look, even if you know a lot about the subject, watching the process is pretty interesting. If you don't, then I'd certainly recommed watching this, if only to 'arm yourself' against the tide.

Raid Redemption is a good, intense, well-done movie, but it's a little bit sadistic at times.

There were some impressive fighting scenes that involved the use of martial arts, however, that captured my interest.

Show White and the Huntsman, I think the movie was to long myself.
