The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011)
VERDICT:
8/10 Ladykillers
Quite the improvement on the original, but can’t quite top the book.

Young Adult (2011)
VERDICT:
6/10 Homewrecking Queens
Not my favorite Reitman effort, but damn is it wicked.

Everyone in my house has the flu, myself included. Nobody’s going to school. So here’s a painting of Freddie Mercury I did.
Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol (2011)
VERDICT:
9/10 Tower Heists
The best one yet, the best thrill ride of the year, total insanity. That Dark Knight Rises prologue sure didn’t hurt either.

The Skin I Live In (2011)
VERDICT:

The Way (2011)
VERDICT:
6/10 Accidental Pilgrims
Script could have used another go-through, but it’s hard to get upset over such a good-hearted movie.

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011)
VERDICT:
8/10 Mole Removals
Arguably better than the book and further proof that it must suck to be a spy.
