MD 2010 Awards

Movie Day 2010 has come and gone.

Maybe the most relaxed movie day yet-due to the luck of the
theatre times and the ingenious scheduling by yours truly.

This year, I've decided to award each movie an award of the day.

12:05 Sherlock Holmes
Starring Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law & Rachel McAdams

With all movie day participants fans of Guy Ritchie, much enjoyed by all. Interesting observation? (Made by Corrie)
No swearing or nudity.
Wins 'Most Impressive Feat of the day' award.



3:50 Invictus
Starring Morgan Freeman & Matt Damon

Great actors.
Great accents!
Great story.
But oh my... some bad song choices.
Wins 'Crappiest Music of the day' award.
(seriously, even 'Leap Year' had better music..come ON Mr. Eastwood!)


7:10 Leap Year
Starring Amy Adams & Matthew Goode

A movie to prove that 2 interesting, well liked actors cannot make a bad movie good. (I think this can be categorized in Daryl's PS3 folder of 'Lame Crap'.)
Wins unanimously for 'Worst Movie of the day...no...worst film yet of 2010' award.




9:15 Youth In Revolt
Starring Michael Cera

Mostly a movie for teenage boys, I think we were all still able to have quite a few good laughs here.
Wins for the 'Best Alter Ego Without Socks (Excepting, of course, Brad Pitt in Fight Club)' award.

(Really, though, unless you are a 17 yr old boy, or you're in the mood for some ridiculously silly, crude vulgarity, you might want to skip this one.)


11:00 The Hurt Locker
Starring Jeremy Renner, Anthony Mackie & Brian Geraghty

An incredible look at american bomb diffusers in Iraq, this one takes home the award for, 'Making me get down on my knees and thank God that none of the Men in my life have to go to war.'

*Alternately wins for my personal favorite of the day.




Join us again next year mid January for Movie Day Awards!

All in one day? Seriously? How cool is that.
thanks for the reviews, I was wondering if that Goerge Cloony "Up in the air" would be worth seeing. Any word on that one?
Love these reveiws.

It really hurt that you didn't like Youth in Revolt. Something about dozens of masturbatory jokes AND getting to see Michael Cera with a moustache made my life more complete.
