1. The Kings Speech- I loved this movie. I think the acting is absolutely fantastic from all of the actors, and it has a great message of never giving up and working hard on something you want to accomplish. Colin Firth is one of my favorite actors and he and Geoffrey Rush, have a fantastic on-screen relationship. Also Helena Bonham Carter plays the queen mother very well. She adds a sweetness to the film in intense and sometimes emotional scenes. I hope this film wins the Oscar. It deserves it!
2. The Social Network- I really enjoyed this film. I was very interested in seeing how exactly Facebook came to be and I think this movie does a great job of showing the real story. It really makes you think if you are a Facebook user, what and who you are contributing to as a Facebook user. The acting was very good and I really enjoyed the quick paced dialogue.

3. True Grit- I thought this film was a fantastic western. I liked how the actors had all of the southern accents down and really knew how to act like a true western character. Haylee Seinfeld was also amazing! I couldn't believe she was only 13 when she made this film. I think she is going to go a long way in the industry. Geoff Bridges was also very good. He was funny and really knew how to play this role.

4.Toy Story 3- I think this was the most emotional Toy Story film for me. I laughed, I cried, I had anger and happiness. This film really takes the viewer all across the board with emotions. The story is also very good as well. I really enjoyed this Toy Story and I felt it had a nice closure to all of the characters. I also liked the classic adventure this Toy Story had like all of the other Toy Stories.

5. Inception- Inception was very confusing to me. I liked it because of the acting and the action, along with the dream sequences where everything seems to blow up, but I was mostly lost through the entire film. I understood snippets here and there, but I was very confused throughout the whole film. I thought Leo DiCaprio did a good job with his part as well as Ellen Page.

6. Winters Bone- I thought the acting in this film was great, but I didn't really find the point of the story. I think there could have been a little more development with the story and some of the characters like Ree and Teardrop and Ree's father. Like what happened to him, and what exactly he did as well as what happened to Ree's mother. There were many questions I had after watching the film that did not get addressed which I'm not a fan of after watching films.
