Perfect Movies of 2009 - Top 3
Here are the 3 best movies of 2009 that got our adrenaline pumping and the dynamite exploding. We love good movies and have seen hundreds in our time.
- Food, Inc. Denial. It’s what’s for dinner… breakfast, lunch and snacks. It’s also why you might want to put that cheeseburger down (if you didn’t after seeing ‘Super Size Me’) and face the hard facts presented in this stunning expose. Oft-referred-to as the “scariest movie of 2009,” this Food Inc full movie download is a mind-boggling — and stomach-turning — look into the bowels, er, mechanics of the companies and government agencies largely responsible for America’s E.coli-related illnesses and escalating obesity epidemic.
- Coraline. Ushering in the 2009 trend of children’s movies perhaps best appreciated by adults, the stop-motion animated Coraline is dazzlingly inventive, eye-poppingly beautiful … and scary as all-get-out. Coraline’s richly strange and imaginative world gave us one of the best 3D movies ever made, and it will stay with us for a long, long time, even if that’s sometimes unfortunately manifested through horrible nightmares involving button eyes.
- Up in the Air. With three feature films now under his belt – ‘Thank You for Smoking,’ ‘Juno’ and now this instant classic — is there any doubt that 32-year-old Jason Reitman is one of Hollywood’s best directors? George Clooney somehow makes a corporate downsizer (topical!) lovable and magnetic in a superb lead turn (his best yet), while Anna Kendrick and Vera Farmiga kill as the distinctly powerful women who change his life. Download Up in the Air is a near-perfect film that is at times bitingly funny, at other times heartrendingly sad — sort of like life, come to think of it.
