Did you two see Warrior? I don't remember a review on it. It's my favorite movie of the year. Very emotionally stirring and intense. Great film.

[GabnDad]

@RullyisJRM I did see Warrior... But I don't want to comment on it - I want you and I to remian friends! ;P

[RullyisJRM]

@GabnDad You didn't like it? Lol. I admit it has its cliche's but it also had a lot going for it. It felt honest and had a lot of heart.

@RullyisJRM I thought the performances were great, but the story seemed cheesy to me... Maybe it's the Female factor? ;-)

Doesn't sound like Dad really enjoyed TOL (which had 0 entertainment value), it seems more like pandering to the pretentious.

Warrior was my favorite film of the year as well. Great acting throughout.

Indepth passion review top 3 Movies of 2011: both your picks are all worthly. My top 3 movie picks would be The Help, War Horse & Super 8 for 2011 are all impactful-strong films that I really enjoyed this year.

[RullyisJRM]

@GabnDad Lol. I didn't find it cheesy at all -- just predictable and cliche'd, but its story and performances swept me away. But we're all free to have opinions. :) We usually agree on most films, lol.

i dont think i could just pick 3, i think it was a great year for cinema. my picks would be (in no order) the tree of life, carnage, moneyball, 50/50, warrior, the beaver, the help, martha marcy may marlene, trust, super 8, x-men first class, hanna.... i have yet to see drive and melancholia but i will definitely see them eventually. great picks btw.

Great list...Okay I have to admit that your dad's picks (except for 'Descendants') made me smile...Yes because he agreed with my picks LOL. And except for 'Drive' which I may have to see again, our lists showed the same film.. Poor John, hardly anyone agreed with his list. Love your line Gab...'George Clooney did less George Clooney.
