Ended up spending most of the night in ER with m'lady (she is fine), so didn't get to post any last night - just replying to stuff on my phone. Time for some catch-up:
I actually am surprised how this list turned out. Not as "snobby" as I would have expected (well, maybe at least not at the bottom 1/2 of the list

). The next block is a bunch of genre movies that took me by surprise and ended up being a lot better than I thought.
45. The Grey:
Liam Neeson and others being chased by a pack of wolves in the Alaskan wilderness after a crash. Not sure about the very end, but I ended up getting really sucked in to the look of this movie. I had a slightly different take on the movie than others seem to, and I am sticking to it, and maybe that added some points where there might not have been otherwise.
44. About Time:
Ok, I am a ####in' sap. I probably watch more rom/coms and romance movies than I do action movies. I adore Love, Actually and probably like Notting Hill more than a grown man should, so I was all over this one. The humor I liked in the other two was there, but there was another level of sentimentality that the previous two didn't have (IMO, in a good way). Trust me, you can do a lot worse in the rom/com genre than this one.
43. Bad Words:
I am guessing the only true comedy to show up on the list. My humor tends to go towards the cringe/uncomfortable type, and this had that in spades. Big fan of Bateman, and we have no right liking him or rooting for him after hearing the #### that comes out of his mouth, but we end up doing just that. He says that crap with the charisma that he always has, and I loved that combo. Bonus points for the uncomfortably funny sex scenes too.
42. Source Code:
I was a huge fan of Duncan Jones' first outing Moon. One of the best sci-fi movies in recent memory. This one didn't quite live up to that, but still a damn good time travel/thriller movie. Big fan of Gyllenhaal as well - he seems to be in a lot of movies that are on my 'best of the year' lists.
41. Kick-###:
Holy ####, a movie Nick Cage couldn't ruin for me. Over the top, crass, kinda dumb, and loved every minute of it. I love the "everyday Joe" superhero movies and seeing them struggle/fail. This and another movie that didn't make the list but I loved,
Super, scratched that itch for me. I will take this over movies like Thor any day of the week. Worth the price of admission for the scenes with Hit Girl, especially towards the end. Stay far away from the sequel though....
