The 10 Best Movies from the 1st Qtr of 2011
Counting all films which had their first major release in January, February or March of 2011, and, of course, which I have seen.
Only one major studio release of 2011 made it - The Lincoln Lawyer, and it probably won't remain on the list by year's end. The Adjustment Bureau almost made the cut, and I'm still debating whether it deserved to or not. Hollywood is on a science fiction / romance kick and by this time next year, The Adjustment Bureau just might prove it's the best of the lot (behind Inception of course, but that's its own genre).
The major independent films with some heavy hitters behind them - Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor in I Love You Phillip Morris, everybody from Rabbit Hole, and Sofia Coppola for Somewhere - proved to be everything that I was expecting of them. December may be the best month for the best Hollywood films, but January has the best from the previous year that couldn't make it into a big theatre, and those usually prove to be the best, period.
Now, on to the list:
