Top 5 Thursday: Movies I Watched for My Challenge (February 2015)

Another month has passed and I watched a bunch of movies. Some new ones, some I really regret watching (“Fifty Shades of Grey”) and some classics I really needed to finally see. Here are my five favourites of this month.

5. A Most Violent Year

A story very well told and great performances by Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain.

 

 

4. Into the Woods

I’m a sucker for a good musical. And I also love fairy tales. Here those two are combined and it looks amazing.

 

 

3. Grosse Pointe Blank

John Cusack is my weakness and I’m a bit ashamed that I never saw this movie before. But when I did, I absolutely loved it. John Cusack at his best!

 

 

2. Invasion of the Body Snatchers

A classic and also a remake. One of the better remakes by the way. It might be a bit dated, but that twist ending really freaked me out. That shriek still haunts me…

 

 

1. Big Hero 6

I’m still waiting for a major flop from Disney. It’s simply not possible. “Big Hero 6” is an amazing animation and is filled with characters to love. Especially Baymax. Fist bumps were never this funny.
