2014 is nearly upon us and with that in mind, I would like to share the best and worst movies of 2013.
Best Movies
Joss Whedon + William Shakespeare= Movie magic.
This biopic of the recently deceased Mr. Mandela reminds the audience of the power of the human spirit.
A brutal and honest look at slavery shows the best and worst qualities of humanity.
4. Blue Jasmine
Woody Allen’s modern reboot of Streetcar Named Desire is just as powerful as the original.
5. Man of Steel
A refreshing take on the Superman mythos.
Honorable Mentions
The civil rights movement was never more powerful than on screen.
Not as quotable as the original, but still extremely funny.
Worst Movies Of The Year
5. Don Jon
Joseph Gordon Levitt’s directorial debut wasn’t as good as it could have been.
Don’t bother with this movie. If your hankering to see R&J on the big screen, try either the 1968 movie or Baz Luhrmann’s mid 90’s reboot.
3. Vamps
Everything about this movie is a waste of time. It’s not even worth the dollar bin.
2. Lone Ranger
It could have been so good, but it wasn’t.
1. Austenland
I wonder if the filmmakers had a secret plan to mock the audience they were looking for.
