the E'scars, the year in review by Eric Carr

A week before the Oscars are given out , I am going to give out the E'scars.
A nod to my favorites of 2012.
Next Sunday see my picks for Oscar winners

Biggest Surprise --THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER.
I throw back to John Hughes high school angst with a darker side--a must see.

Best Comedy to talk to Larry with --tie for Project X and Ted

Best Date night movie--The 5 year engagement was this years Bridemaids--Judd Apatow films always deliver

Best movie to watch with your wife--This is 40 , gets right to the heart of what marriage is and should be. Ups and downs , Highs and lows another Apatow gem

Best Cop movie --End of Watch was fantastic rent it now!

Best Kids movie--Rise of the Guardians, Tooth Fairy, Easter bunny, Santa Claus, jack frost battle evil boogie man.

Best movie about a true story--Argo , not zero dark thirty. Argo was a really good film and much better than ZDT in my opionion. Very intense and Alan Arkin was one of the best acting jobs of the year.

Top 5 movies of the year
Lincoln
Life of PI in 3D only
End of Watch
Django
Perks of being Wallflower

The E'scar for my favorite film of the year....Django
Writing was the best of any film by far and acting was incredible. Too much graphic violence at the end, but the writing and acting are SOO superior.
