Really, tree of life was your worst film of 2011? I know it wasn't to everyones tastes, but it defintely wasn't the worst film of 2011...I recently watched a norwegian film called Trollhunter which i really enjoyed, and an aussie horror called Lake Mungo. Both really good watches.
My favorite movie of '11 was Drive.Worst movie I saw in '11 was The Tree of Life.
Old boy, a really great movie.

I remember seeing the previews when it first came out and I thought "meh," but it exceeded my expectations big time, probably my favourite movie of '11 as well. I also really liked Midnight in Paris, but I love essentially anything Woody Allen does. Oh and I just watched a documentary from 2010 called The Two Escobars, it was part of espn's 30 for 30 series, check it out, one of the better documentaries I've seen in a while.

Love that 80's synth retro soundtrack it had too, best soundtrack of the year imo.Old Boy is my favorite Korean movie.Anyone seen I Saw The Devil? Still need to check that one out.
I too watch a lot of movies, perhaps too many. I've seen most of the major films this year, I liked MI4, Hanna, Planet of the Apes, and Moneyball the best. In Time, Immortals, Flowers of war, and War Horse weren't bad. I still have yet to see a few like Shame and GWTDT but once the busy teaching is over I will.I also really like Tree of Life because I am a big Malick fan. The cinematography is incredible and the film helps me to appreciate life more when you see the grand scope of it. From each of his films I learn something new about myself. But yeah if you're looking for an entertaining popcorn flick it might not be your cup of tea.
two of my favorite movies:GranTorino,Good Will Hunting
