I saw a few movies over the past week:
True Grit: 9/10
Probably the best modern-made western movie I have seen, and arguably one of the best westerns I have seen. Jeff Bridges was an EXCELLENT choice, and although I had my reservations about Matt Damon playing LaBoeuf, he did surprisingly well. Hailee Steinfeld was perfect in her role, and it was quite funny seeing this little girl handle herself. I usually don't go for most remakes of classics, but this was very well done.
Black Swan: 8/10
Surpassed my expectations completely. The movie was very well done, and definitely made me think (although not in an inception kind of way). Unfortunately, I knew the story line ahead of time, so most of the major surprises weren't really such, but I know my friends were pretty impressed. Not to mention I love Natalie Portman.
The Tourist: 7/10
Not a bad movie either, and better than I expected. I was planning on just a straight up action movie, but it had its share of twists. Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie were great in this one, and the story was actually pretty decent.
