Our Top 10 Favorites of 2011
RYAN: Happy New Year!! In the next few months we get to enjoy all the awards shows we love, including the one we vote for – The Critics’ Choice Movie Awards.
CAROLINE: I’m so thrilled for you that you’re attending again this year. It’s truly a highlight in glamor. And statistically, as a part of the Broadcast Film Critics Association, as a group, we tend to be the most accurate predictors of the Oscars… both nominees and winners.
RYAN: The Golden Globes and SAG awards are super fun too.
CAROLINE: Oh honey, I love it all. It’s the most wonderful time of the year. And a cause to celebrate with Rice Krispies treats.
RYAN: Always! Here are my favorite 5 films of the year:
2. War Horse
3. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
4. The Ides of March
5. Carnage
CAROLINE: My 5 favorite films of 2011, and I admittedly haven’t seen them everything that came out yet, but sue me, I have a baby at home, are:
2. The Help
3. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
4. Bridesmaids
5. The Artist
RYAN: I’ll go ahead and add The Debt, for the intensity and performances by Jessica Chastain, Sam Worthington and Helen Mirren. It’s not getting much recognition but is a very well done film that’s super entertaining. And then I’d throw in The Adventures of Tintin just for the fun of it.
