Here's a rundown of my last five movie experiences ... you heard right, this is the analysis you’ve been waiting for …
True Grit was engaging and entertaining. The Coen Brothers did well. With all due respect to the Duke, this flick was an improvement on the original.
Robin Hood was a pleasant surprise as it wasn't warmly received by the critics. It was a prequel to the classic story of Sherwood Forest, and historically interesting. With all due respect to the critics, this was a great movie.
The Expendables was an action movie involving several classic "tough guys", some throughout the plot, but most in short cameos. With all due respect to the stature of the actors involved, this was a waste of time and special effects.
Salt was an Angelina Jolie vehicle. She was a CIA agent who was unknowingly an elite Russian sleeper agent who, after killing about half of her former office buddies, turned out to be CIA-friendly after all. With due respect to the gigantic holes in the plot, it was a watchable movie (but only once).
The Social Network is drawing attention as a top film of 2010. These real-life business dramas are intriguing to me. With all due respect to my own misgivings about Facebook, the accolades this movie is drawing are well-deserved.

I would still like to catch up with a few 2010 flicks, including 127 Hours, Inception and The King's Speech.
