Movie of the Month: For “new to me” movies, it’s gotta be The Dark Knight Rises. Way better than I anticipated, and it may even be my new favorite from the trilogy. As far as rewatches go, Lost in Translation is my clear #1 choice. Even better on a second viewing, and a straight-up 10/10 for me.

Dud of the Month: The Puffy Chair. The only Duplass brothers film that I didn’t enjoy in some fashion. There were plenty of other contenders (i.e. Sherlock Holmes, Rampart and Valhalla Rising), but this one was a chore to sit through.

What do you guys think? What’s your favorite from this group? Least favorite? See anything good on your end?
