Nick Nolte delivers a great performance, and it transcends any sports movie conventions I could think of and just delivers big drama at every level. This is MMA's first great movie - will they appropriate boxing's title as the best movie sport?Sollosihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15034829964174631191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3414576942106516010.post-221265295016071492012-01-26T13:13:33.625-05:002012-01-26T13:13:33.625-05:00Good list.

The Artist was delightful, and the silent aspect was very well done. Hugo is probably my favorite film from 2011 and quite possibly my favorite Scorsese film. The story is faithful to the book that it was based on, which I loved, and has the amazing visuals you'd expext from a Scorsese. Moneyball was great, focusing more on the emotional aspects of Billy Beane rather than the business side, but I was not exactly blown away by Jonah Hill. It's surprising to think that he's getting an Oscar nomination before Jim Carrey.<br /><br />Anyways, here's my top 5, none of which are Best Picture nominees<br />5. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo<br />4. A Cat in Paris / Chico & Rita<br />3. Warrior<br />2. La Luna / A Morning Stroll<br />1.
