War Horse
Stars Jeremy Irvine
Directed by Steven Spielberg




GO: Speilberg at his (near) best. Moving tale as horse travels through WWI, cared for by various people, bringing out each of their stories.

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
Stars Gary Oldman, Colin Firth
Directed by Tomas Alfredson




GO: Ridiculously slow moving with little action yet somehow intrigues & fascinates with mystery of double agent. Tom Hardy is welcome spark.

The Descendants
Stars George Clooney, Shailene Woodley
Directed by Alexander Payne




GO: Slow moving, even depressing at times, but interesting story lines, solid acting and locales (Hawaii) kept my attention.

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo
Stars Rooney Mara, Daniel Craig
Directed by David Fincher




NO: Intriguing but suffers due to comparison & similarity of original. Unfair perhaps but so be it. Mara does fine job but Rapace owned it.

We Bought A Zoo
Stars Matt Damon, Scarlett Johansson
Directed by Cameron Crowe




GO: Cameron Crowe’s done better but family tale hits mark more than misses. Cutest movie kid in long time (Maggie Elizabeth Jones-age 7).

Sherlock Homes: A Game Of Shadows
Stars Robert Downey, Jr., Jude Law
Directed by Guy Ritchie




GO: Just made the cut. Explosions and gun play dampen strong characters & interesting story. Next time, less flash, more brains.

The Darkest Hour
Stars Emile Hirsh, Olivia Thirlby
Directed by Chris Gorak




NO: Promise unfulfilled. Alien invasion with faceless enemies, Moscow as ghost town. Even Olivia Thirlby (Juno’s pal) can’t save this one.

Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol
Stars Tom Cruise, Paula Patton
Directed by Brad Bird




GO: Simon Pegg & Paula Patton strong additions to IMF team. Cruise is Cruise. Action strong. Josh Holloway from Lost great in cameo.

Like Crazy
Stars Felicity Jones, Anton Yelchin
Directed by Drake Doremus




GO: One of year’s best. Felicity Jones & Anton Yelchin fall in love, struggle with separation, life. Taut script, tight powerful direction.

Young Adult
Stars Charlize Theron, Patrick Wilson
Directed by Jason Reitman




NO: Slow, safe drama never ignites. Theron is good but Cody’s script lacks fire and humor of Juno. Reitman can’t bring life to material.
