So the last few weeks, I haven't posted much about movies, because I haven't gone to the theaters (which is a shocker, but also shouldn't be much of a shocker, as I'm not working, and chose to save money I do have rather than spend). Anyways, as to why I chose two, well one movie was a buy one get one ticket free, and the other I had a free movie ticket.
Those two movies that I saw today were Won't Back Down, and Argo. Both of the movies were really well done, and I really enjoyed both films. Argo in my opinion is going to be nominated for Best Picture and perhaps a whole lot more (or at least should) when the Academy Award nominations are announced. The movie was that good. Won't Back Down had a couple of good performances from Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Viola Davis. The movie almost had somewhat of a The Help feel to it, and perhaps that's because Viola Davis almost plays a similar kind of role in this movie as in The Help. I won't say much as to why I draw that conclusion, as I don't want to spoil the film.
Argo on the other hand, I won't go into detail, but I will just say it's one of Ben Affleck's best movies, and he directed it. Ben Affleck is actually a pretty good director in my opinion, well at least with the last two movies I've seen of his that he's directed (The Town and Argo).
