the Messenger

Saw the Messenger at the regular theater Friday, 18 February 2010, at 650pm. Excellent performances from all the actors, including Samantha Morton and Steve Buscemi, but especially Ben Foster and Woody Harrelson. Great directorial debut from Oren Moverman. Highly recommended. One of the best movies of 2009.

Moon

Saw Moon on DVD via netflix.com Tuesday, 16 Feb 2010. Better than expected. Sam Rockwell was excellent in this movie, considering he was only interacting with himself (literally and figuratively.)

the Hangover

Saw the Hangover on DVD via redbox.com on Thursday, 11 Feb 2010. Enjoyable movie. It was much better than I expected. Deserves its box office take.

Crazy Heart

Saw Crazy Heart at the regular theater Wednesday, 10 February 2010, at 705pm. Jeff Bridges deserves to win the Oscar for Best Actor in a Leading Role. Maggie Gyllenhaal and Robert Duvall were also very good. Kudos to Scott Cooper for an excellent film debut.

Departures

Saw Departures on DVD via Netflix Tuesday, 9 February 2010. Worthy of having won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. Highly recommended.

A Perfect Getaway

Saw A Perfect Getaway on a flight Monday, 25 January 2010. This was not bad. If you have time, go ahead and watch it. It won't be a waste of your time.

All About Steve
