Every 2011 Movie I Saw In 2011, From Favorite To Least
With unintentional neatness, the top ten consists of movies I would definitely go to bat for in a conversation, the next ten were entertaining but more for genre enthusiasts, and the last eight were either intriguingly despicable or honorably mediocre.
