Ref: Mulhern
Despite being eons behind Mulhern's reviewing pace, I will endeavor to soldier on.
#43 War Horse
I did not see this one, but I made the cat reenact pivotal scenes as I envisioned them by throwing his toys and watching him gallop after them around the living room. That was one feisty horse!
To entertain you further in the absence of any other content from me, did you read the new This Way to Delicious?
#42 Limitless
I actually enjoyed this for the most part - an interesting concept and fair execution. And we all know of my deep and abiding love for Bradley Cooper. However, the movie ended up escalating too much for my taste in the last half hour or so.
#41 Friends with Benefits
A cute story told by attractive and funny folks - what more could you want? I felt like this film's humor made it stronger than No Strings Attached. Interesting that Black Swan's Portman and Kunis went on to play the same role in essentially the same movie shortly after competing for the same role in the ballet to disastrous results. Coincidence? I think not.
#40 Source Code
I would move this one up the list, were it up to me - but, then, I have benefited from both seeing it and being asked to explain it twice. I appreciated the plot's deliberate pace and the gradual reveal of information, both within the source code and in Captain Stevens' real (or *spoiler alert* "real") world. I also enjoyed the numerous twists and turns - and the fact that each one importantly influenced and/or altered everything the audience had previously learned.
