I've seen some good ones this year. Best year for movies in a long time.
Drive was my favorite. Some might think its slow, but if you actually tune in to what's going on -- it's exciting as fuck to watch some actual filmmaking. Great, great movie. Don't listen to the naysayers who forgot to take their ritalin.
Mission Impossible 4 made my hands sweat a few times. Must be seen on a real IMAX screen, not one of those fake ones. Use this map to find a real one.

The Last Circus -- technically, this is a 2010 movie, but it didn't get watched on a wide scale until 2011. If you want to see some crazy Tarantino style Spanish cinema, watch this one.
Warrior -- I'm not an MMA fan, but this flick caught me by surprise. Some great acting and a few scenes that will punch you in the stomach emotionally. The trailer makes it look cheesy, but its a great little movie.
Sherlock Holmes 2 -- was like any good movie, that starts out ok, then gets awesome in the last 20 minutes. It was so much better than the first one.
Girl with the Dragon Tattoo -- I just like David Fincher movies. That's all.
Melacholia -- if you have the patience, you'll get into this study of deep depression. Blew me away. Kind of good as a sci-fi movie also.
Our Idiot Brother -- something about this movie's sense of humor. Maybe its because I was high, but I laughed pretty hard a few times. I pulled something in my stomach and hurt for a few days.
Hot Coffee -- best documentary this year. Just watch it.
Rango -- best pure western I've seen in years.
Insidious -- some scary ass shit.
Super 8 -- brought me back to my teens, watching an Amblin/Spielberg movie, except it wasn't.
Devil's Double -- insane story, if its true.
