Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows

Average User Score: 7.4

User Score 6

Fairly decent film. I liked Jude Law and Robert Downey's performances and the screen "bromance" they had. It had its moments of humor, and I also liked the action and the slow motion added to the action scenes. However, I felt they had no reason to include Noomi Rapce, because she barely had importance to the movie.… Expand

Super 8

Average User Score: 7.3

User Score 9

Director J.J. Abrams and Producer Steven Spielberg team up to make "Super 8", a classic alien in a southern and middle of nowhere town movie. And the fact that the main characters are a group of kids who want to make a short film makes it even better. Some parts, like the little kid who keeps saying "mint", may get a little irritating, but that shouldn't detract from the overall outstanding quality of the movie.… Expand

Warrior

Average User Score: 8.2

User Score 9

With great MMA fights and powerful storytelling, "Warrior" is definitely a triumph. I really don't know which brother I liked better: Tommy, an ex-Marine with regrets whose trying to make up and repair for it, or Brendan, whose family's welfare rides on his success or failure. You too will face this tough decision in this amazing film.… Expand

Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol

Average User Score: 7.7

User Score 9

Definitely the best of the Mission: Impossible movies. The CGI can be a bit annoying at times, but other than that, it's a great and enjoyable popcorn entertainment flick. Kudos to director Brad Bird for successfully directing his first live-action film, it was truly great.… Expand

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

Average User Score: 8.0

User Score 10

Alright, let's get one thing straight. David Fincher directed an ADAPTATION of the original novel by Stieg Larsson. And it's an EXCELLENT one at that. The film is dark, eerie, creepy, and disturbing and graphic... and that's what makes it excellent! The cinematography is gorgeous, Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross once again compose another Oscar-worthy film score, and David Fincher's direction is exceptional. What makes it better is Rooney Mara's portrayal of Lisbeth Salander (she's a GIANT badass in the film) and its being more faithful to the novel. Should you see this film? Yes, you should. Ps. To the negative reviews saying that it drags on too long, quit your **** You couldn't be any more wrong. I saw the film and I felt the time go way too fast, I desired more when the credits began to roll, even if I know how it ends.… Expand

Source Code

Average User Score: 7.5

User Score 9

Some parts of this movie may get a little confusing (especially during the middle and to the end), but that will no detract from the marvelous popcorn entertainment that is Source Code. Definitely see!… Expand

Ratatouille

Average User Score: 8.5

User Score 10

Even after seeing this Pixar movie for the BILLIONth time, I'm not sick of it. This is definitely one of Pixar's best works. The cuisine mixed in with the film's plot, and how Pixar used animation to create the most GORGEOUS looking Paris I've seen in a film, animated or not. SEE THIS FILM.… Expand

Inception

Average User Score: 8.4

User Score 10

THE film of 2010. Original and imaginative filmmaking at its finest. Christopher Nolan is going places, and I'm beyond shocked he was snubbed for a directing Oscar nomination. The film is great because of it's different approach to telling you its story, and of course, messing with your mind. By the end of the film, you yourself will wonder if you are under the effects of Inception.… Expand

The Social Network

Average User Score: 8.2

User Score 10

One of the best films of 2010. I don't even know where to start. All of the cast gave spectacular performances. Aaron Sorkin's screenplay was wonderful (it's available on the film's website, and I can't stop reading it). David Fincher's direction was terrific as usual. The film had breathtaking and gorgeous cinematography. Really, if you want an example of a near perfect film, this is it.… Expand

The King's Speech

Average User Score: 8.4

User Score 5

This is one movie that I simply did my best to try to like, but it wasn't enough. I just didn't enjoy it. It was really slow at times and even though there were some good/okay parts, the rest is just pure unenjoyable content. I will say I liked some of the acting, and the film's cinematography was gorgeous. I'm not saying it's the worst film ever made, this is just one film I respectfully dislike.… Expand
