Winter's Bone - One of the best films of the year so far. This small, indie film starts a little slow but when the story kicks in about 10 minutes in, the film doesn't let you go. This films is extremely well-made with some of the best performances of the year. Newcomer Jennifer Lawrence is captivating and gives an incredible performance. John Hawkes plays her uncle Teardrop, and gives an unbelievable performance as one of the most unpredictable characters that i've seen in the last 10 years. Every actor is so real, it's hard to tell if anyone is really acting but that's what this movie does; It throws you into this world and doesn't let you go until the credits roll. Please check out this incredible raw, intense film if it comes to your town!

Grown Ups - Is it a good film? No. Did i enjoy it? Yes! It's an Adam Sandler Movie. If you like his films, you will enjoy his movies but if you don't, you could hate it. I liked it. It has problems even for and Adam Sandler film but i laughed.

Knight and Day - This is a fun but forgettable movie. Tom Cruise brings a fun, manic energy that makes this movie interesting but i always felt something was missing and the story dies about 20 minutes before the movies ends. Cameron Diaz was miscast and just off of her game in this one. I recommend this as a rental or a nothing better to do matinee. I enjoyed A-Team more than this one.

Toy Story 3 - I wanted to write a long review for this but i procrastinated so here's a quick one. Everything you expect from a Pixar film; tons of heart and lots of laughs. I grew up on these films and remember seeing each one like it was yesterday. This was a fitting end to a wonderful series and pixar continues the best movie streak of all time!
