2K12 Movies
Last year-end blog of the annual series is my movie round-up. I backslid with my watching in 2013, seeing almost half the films I caught in 2012, so I’ll have to try and make that up again in the next twelve months; but on the plus side I did get out to the cinema more, and there’s nothing quite like the collective experience of a movie...except when people talk or turn up twenty minutes in or can’t find their damn seats or... Here’s the list:
Trek Nation, Unknown, Underworld: Awakening, The Grey, Everything or Nothing, Wreck-It Ralph, Looper, Taken 2, Zero Dark Thirty, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo [2011], A Fantastic Fear Of Everything, Cleanskin, Oblivion, Welcome To The Punch, District 9, Red Faction: Origins, Storage 24, Iron Man 3, Star Trek Into Darkness, Source Code, Pacific Rim, Men In Black 3, The Mechanic, Jack Reacher, Elysium, The Watch, Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel, Argo, Ted, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, Thor: The Dark World, The Day The Earth Stood Still [2008], Gravity, Seduced And Abandoned, Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit, Virus.
Oddly, I seemed to have watched several Liam Neeson films this year; I’m not sure what that means. Anyhow, I got some nerd-love with new Iron Man and Star Trek movies in 2013, not to mention Pacific Rim which I thoroughly enjoyed, the pacey Welcome to the Punch and the excellently tense Gravity. My sleeper hits of the year have to be Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel, which is a great bit of lo-fi sci-fi comedy, and Storage 24, which is a great bit of lo-fi sci-fi action. Check ‘em out.
