CrimeDramaWestern

In 1931, the Bondurant brothers of Franklin County, Virginia, run a multipurpose backwoods establishment that hides their true business — bootlegging. Middle brother Forrest is the brain of the operation; older Howard is the brawn, and younger Jack, the lookout. Though the local police have taken bribes and left the brothers alone, a violent war erupts when a sadistic lawman from Chicago arrives and tries to shut down the Bondurants operation.

    The two you need to watch:

    - Get the Gringo

    - Grabbers

    The rest:

    - Cloud Atlas was...interesting.

    - Pitch Perfect was the absolute worst, but hilarious. In a similar vein: For a Good Time, Call.

    - Argo and Beast of the Southern Wild are overhyped in my opinion.

    - Life of Pi was great (make sure to read the book at some point).

    - End of Watch was better than advertised.

    - Dark Knight Rises was a solid conclusion to the series.

    - Ted was funny, but doesn't work so well on repeat views.

    - Other movies you should watch: The new Total Recall. Safety Not Guaranteed. Lawless. The Amazing Spiderman (awesome series reboot)
