Most Interesting 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.
- Crazy Heart. At age 60, Jeff Bridges proves he’s still got it in this quiet but crowd-pleasing adaptation of Thomas Cobb’s novel. Here, he plays Bad Blake, a boozing country singer who quite literally lives up to his name. It’s a big performance in a download Crazy Heart that is sure to earn Bridges an illustrious fifth Oscar nomination — and quite possibly his first win (yep, he’s that good).
- Zombieland. The Bill Murray cameo alone is worth the price of admission to this undead-ridden action-comedy, but it’s the dysfunctional Butch-Sundance dynamic between zombie slayers Woody Harrelson and Jesse Eisenberg that makes this flick so bloody fun to watch. That, and the incredibly inventive ways it concocts to off the undead. Our favorite: death by banjo in the movie the Zombieland
- The Fantastic Mr. Fox. Wes Anderson has never been wittier, funnier or more emotionally accessible than he is here … with a stop-motion animation movie about chicken-pilfering foxes and their animal brethren (featuring the inimitable voices of George Clooney, Meryl Streep and Jason Schwartzman). Go figure. Fantastic mr Fox 2009 like ‘The Royal Tenenbaums’ meets ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas.’ Which, of course, is a very, very good thing.
