Moneyball was (to me) unexpectedly great. But
Bridesmaids? WTF? A few funny moments, but I will never for the life of me grok what the big deal about this movie was. A D-List comedy in my book.
Being in the
Tree of Life Love It camp, I recently watched
Melancholia, often cited as the year's other tone poem artsy film, but with a more downbeat tone. This is the one I felt was cinematic masturbation and, though not entirely uninteresting, I really didn't care for it.
Tree of Life is a work of genius, detractors notwithstanding. I will pray for them.
