The 3 Most Addicted Movies of the Decade
Here are the 3 best movies of 2009 that got our adrenaline pumping and the dynamite exploding. We love good movies and have seen hundreds in our time.
- A Serious Man. The Coen bothers are back in fine form (which, depending on your take on ‘Burn After Reading,’ they make never have left) in what many are calling their most personal film to date with this comedic drama about a Minnesota college professor’s (Michael Stuhlbarg) life quickly coming to pieces. A Serious Man movie is rich with the duo’s signature dark humor, and while not all of it made perfect sense, we had fun trying to figure it out, anyway.
- Invictus. Clint Eastwood’s true-life tale of how newly elected South African President Nelson Mandela (a spot-on Morgan Freeman) teamed up with the captain of the nation’s rugby team (Matt Damon) to unite the apartheid-torn land with a run at the 1995 World Cup hits all the right notes. Download Invictus movie is both an inspirational sports drama and a portrait of an inspired leader, with Oscar-caliber performances from its two leads and a heavy helping of that magical ingredient: feel-good.
- Avatar. You’re probably already tired of hearing about how “James Cameron has completely revolutionized filmmaking” with his 12-years-in-the-making 3D extravaganza. Well, sorry to say it, but he kind of has. Download Avatar is the first movie in which 3D is seamlessly integrated into almost every scene to eye-popping and, frankly, gorgeous effect. Heck, watching this groundbreaking epic might even make you feel like you’re king of the world.
