Theatre wise, I saw Flipped and The Town recently.

Flipped was really, really good until the last 15 minutes when Reiner, as always, shot himself in the face. He completely lost track of some characters leaving their stories in limbo and half told. And the main story had an anti-climactic and cheesy ending. In fact, I'm wondering if they consulted with Michael Bay for the last shot, as we get very, very close to a BayMoment (TM).


The Town was really good. Ben is a director. He should stick with that. The car chases were superbly shot, edited, and polished. Best chase scenes since Bourne series and perhaps even better.


On my radar:

The Social Network
Let Me In
Never Let Me Go
It's Kind of a Funny Story
