...and yet another recently released movie we didn't like (that got good reviews) - Quartet [View all]

We are on a movie cold streak!

We've just not at all enjoyed the following recent DVD rentals - Quartet (predictable, silly, boring), Anna Karenina (WTF?), Silver Linings Playbook (WTF again?), A Late Quartet (words fail me), Life of Pi (so inferior to the book), We Bought a Zoo (our daughter warned us about this one), The Master (Yuck yet again), The Perks of Being a Wallflower (zzzzzzzzzzzzzz - and predictable, and annoying), War Horse (so so boring).

There are a few recent releases we did like - Moonrise Kingdom, Samsara, Searching for Sugarman, Another Year, Incendies, Chicken with Plums, The Sessions, In a Better World, Hitchcock, Zero Dark Thirty, Argo....

I think our tastes are a bit "too out there" for mass production or blockbuster types and we best stick to the minefield (but often rewarding) independent releases!
