- DirectorDenis VilleneuveStarsHugh JackmanJake GyllenhaalViola DavisA desperate father takes the law into his own hands after police fail to find two kidnapped girls.Prisoners was the most dark, haunting, disturbing movie I have seen all year. I could not take my eyes off of it for a second. The most intense and emotional film of the year is wrapped in crisp cinematography and some of the best ensemble acting all year, especially Jake Gyllenhaal and Viola Davis. Amazing movie, definitely check this one out. A+
- DirectorDavid O. RussellStarsChristian BaleAmy AdamsBradley CooperA con man, Irving Rosenfeld, along with his seductive partner Sydney Prosser, is forced to work for a wild F.B.I. Agent, Richie DiMaso, who pushes them into a world of Jersey powerbrokers and the Mafia.
- DirectorFrancis LawrenceStarsJennifer LawrenceJosh HutchersonLiam HemsworthKatniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark become targets of the Capitol after their victory in the 74th Hunger Games sparks a rebellion in the Districts of Panem.The next chapter in one of my favorite sagas could not have been anymore perfect. As my favorite book from the series, this movie delivered in a faithful manner and brought so much more. Jennifer Lawrence of course is outstanding in the role of Katniss Everdeen. She truly gets into the perspective of this emotional character and delivers one of the best performances of the year. If The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 & 2 are as amazing as The Hunger Games and The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, this will have been the best saga of ALL TIME. A+

- DirectorPaul GreengrassStarsTom HanksBarkhad AbdiBarkhad AbdirahmanThe true story of Captain Richard Phillips and the 2009 hijacking by Somali pirates of the U.S.-flagged MV Maersk Alabama, the first American cargo ship to be hijacked in two hundred years.Captain Phillips is one of the most intense action thrillers of the year. Not only is the story enough to put you on the edge of your seat, but the gravity and depth of the performances of Tom Hanks and Barkhad Abdi (who I believe deserves the Oscar for Supporting Actor) are fully immersive and believeable. This was the most overlooked film during the Awards Season, and it deserved much more recognition. A
