Moneyball
Moneyball, directed by Bennett Miller, featuring Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill, has achieved a rating of #1 and thus is one of the top 10 movie rentals. Is it a good movie? Well, here is a recent review:
In a movie review on December 7, 2011 entitled Back Office Baseball: A Smart Screenplay And Grounded Performances Showcase The Business Of The Game, K. Harris “Film aficionado” wrote, “Every year, I get wary of the inevitable film set in a sporting arena where an underdog player or team must triumph against adversity to become unlikely heroes.As accomplished or heartwarming as many of these films can be, they never seem to be able to break free of the conventions that we’ve all seen a hundred times.While I can’t say that “Moneyball” isn’t inspired by the genre, I will say that it looks at the phenomenon from a decidedly different angle.Based on Michael Lewis’s non-fiction account of the same name, this is actually an intriguing story ruled by the business of baseball as opposed to the emotions the game elicits.As such, it seems like something entirely new.Director Bennett Miller (Oscar nominee for Capote), along with heavyweight screenwriters Aaron Sorkin and Steve Zaillian, has created one of the brainiest and least sentimental baseball films you’re likely to see.”Moneyball” tells the true story of how the Oakland A’s GM Billy Beane rebuilt the team for…Read more“

In a movie review on August 11, 2011 entitled The Help: The best novel adaptation in a loooong time., M. Bullions “Matt Mayhem” wrote, “”Oscar season”, as it’s typically referred to, is a period of time, usually beginning in late November, and ending in late January. This year, it starts early, with “The Help”.”The Help” is based on the well-known novel by Kathryn Stockett, someone who I had never heard of before discovering this film and book. For the most part, when I hear about a film that I want to see, I try to read the book prior to viewing the movie, to enhance the whole experience. Usually I get bored, or stop mid-way through one of these said books, before I end up watching the movie.But “The Help” grabbed me. Stockett kept me on a leash, dying to know what happened next, and I ended up finishing its 530 pages in a few sittings. And, I’m glad it did, because “The Help” is not only the best movie I’ve seen this summer, but it very well could be the best one I see all year.The film centers on Aibileen, Skeeter and Minny (Davis, Stone and Spencer, respectively) three…Read more“

Downton Abbey: Episode 1
Downton Abbey: Episode 1 has achieved a rating of #3 and thus is one of the top 10 movie rentals. Is it a good movie? Well, here is a recent review:
In a movie review on February 25, 2011 entitled A Massive Cast Shines In A Delightfully Upscale Soap Opera, K. Harris “Film aficionado” wrote, “A transporting miniseries from PBS, the crisp and delightful “Downton Abbey” is easily my favorite Masterpiece Theater presentation since the impeccable “Bleak House.” Perhaps not as austere as you might expect, “Downton Abbey” combines an “Upstairs, Downstairs” drama with some rather soapy plot points and a healthy dose of scathing British wit. While many of the recent successful Masterpiece Theater productions have benefited from a distinguished literary pedigree, this original creation was whipped up with considerable verve by Julian Fellowes–who mined similar territory and won an Oscar for the screenplay of “Gosford Park.” Aired on U.S. television stations in four longer parts, this set appropriately reconfigures the program into seven distinct episodes as they were originally intended. Simply put, “Downton Abbey” tells the story of one English estate consisting of the Crawley family and their household staff in the years preceding World War I. Fellowes does an…Read more“

Real Steel
Real Steel, directed by Shawn Levy, featuring Hugh Jackman and Dakota Goyo, has achieved a rating of #4 and thus is one of the top 10 movie rentals. Is it a good movie? Well, here is a recent review:
In a movie review on October 13, 2011 entitled Mix Rocky with Paper Moon, add in robots, and voila! A really fun, highly enjoyable hit of a movie, Whitt Patrick Pond “Whitt” wrote, “Real Steel, directed by Shawn Levy, is one of the very few movies I’ve seen in recent years where the audience I was in actually broke into applause in various scenes.A masterfully done tale of underdogs - a boy and his dad and a discarded robot - going against the odds, it really does get you pumped up to that level.I got a bigger kick out of this movie than I have from any other this year.It really is that much fun to watch.The germ idea for Real Steel comes from a 1956 short story by Richard Matheson that was made into a classic Twilight Zone episode, and the look is right out of the Transformers franchise, but the heart - and there’s a lot of it in this film - comes in equal measure from two films one would ordinarily have never linked together:John Avildsen’s boxing classic Rocky (1976) and Peter Bogdanovich’s Depression-era con-man & kid road trip classic Paper Moon (1973). The plot is set in the not so distant future of 2020, where human boxing…Read more“

50/50
50/50, directed by Jonathan Levine, featuring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen, earns spot #5 on the list of top movie downloads. Want to know what others think? Let’s see the latest reviews!
In a movie review on January 19, 2012 entitled A Cancer Comedy That Deftly Balances Laughs With Reality In Its Smart And Sophisticated Screenplay, K. Harris “Film aficionado” wrote, “Striking the right balance and tone has got to be an incredibly difficult thing to do when you are centering a comedic picture around a serious topic such as cancer. I suppose that’s why we see so few cancer comedies–it just isn’t a particularly amusing topic. On TV, Showtime has a Laura Linney helmed program called “The Big C” which addresses cancer as its principle theme. That program, however, (despite being beloved by many, so send me your hate mail) has the deck stacked with wacky caricatures and unbelievable situations that make it almost unbearably over-the-top. Maybe that’s why “50/50″ was an incredible surprise! It’s easy to see why its perfectly measured screenplay has won numerous year-end accolades because the story deftly juggles the hilarious with the heartfelt. This is comedy that comes from a very real place with exceedingly believable characters, and yet–it is also surprisingly hard-edged and never devolves into sentimental treacle. In a word, the film’s tone is…Read more“

Dirty Love
Dirty Love, directed by John Asher, featuring Jenny McCarthy and Carmen Electra, now currently holds spot #6 and is considered among the Top Online Movie Rentals by many people. Let’s see what viewers had to say:
In a movie review on January 3, 2006 entitled Just about as bad as I thought it would be, Mr Body Massage “Mr Body Massage” wrote, “Well, what was I expecting? Pretty horrible movie. Jenny McCarthy is hot of course, but she is so “not hot” in a lot of the situations she puts herself in. Carmen Electra is incredibly annoying. I understand it’s a comedy that relies on gross-out factor, but most of the situations are so overdone that it just makes you uncomfortable watching them.”
This reviewer gave Dirty Love a 1.0 star rating.

The Ides of March
The Ides of March, directed by George Clooney, featuring Ryan Gosling and George Clooney, holds spot #7 on our list of top online movie rentals today. Should it be in this spot? Some think so, others say no. Here is the latest review:
In a movie review on December 7, 2011 entitled The Year’s Best Cast In A Well Made Film That Fails To Break Any New Ground In The Political Drama Genre, K. Harris “Film aficionado” wrote, “There’s nothing that I enjoy more than an adult political thriller with its smarts, scandal and cynicism front and center.Therefore, I was over-the-moon in anticipation for George Clooney’s “The Ides of March.”Director Clooney has assembled one of the year’s most impressive casts including Ryan Gosling, Paul Giamatti, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Marisa Tomei, Evan Rachel Wood, and Clooney himself.It’s a dream team and every performance is exemplary.And yet, despite the heavy hitters at the top of their game, the actual story behind “The Ides of March” is pretty familiar and, frankly, a tad underwhelming.I certainly wanted to and expected to like this movie, even love it, but it simply offers little new to the well-worn genre of political drama.Adapted from the 2008 play “Farragut North” by Beau Willimon, the narrative revolves around a Democratic primary with the standard amount of political hubris and idealistic disillusionment.It’s really a very tight story highlighting…Read more“

Steve Jobs: One Last Thing
Steve Jobs: One Last Thing, directed by Mimi O’Connor, holds spot #8 on our list of top online movie rentals today. Should it be in this spot? Some think so, others say no. Here is the latest review:
In a movie review on December 10, 2011 entitled clear and truthful documentary, Kj Godwin-larson “Kelly-Jeau G. Larson” wrote, “Simple interviews of his life, friends and business ties. Seeing peoples views of him (good and bad) was insightful in and of itself. But, I found it very interesting when learning of a belief system Jobs had that I never thought of in such good words. Something he considered some decades before he died. Watch it, and learn something about how to live and work with your life, and wonder (as I am) of what people will say about you after you died what they may point out of what you left behind.”
This reviewer gave Steve Jobs: One Last Thing a 4.0 star rating.

Contagion
Contagion, directed by Steven Soderbergh, featuring Matt Damon and Gwyneth Paltrow, holds spot #9 on our list of top online movie rentals today. Should it be in this spot? Some think so, others say no. Here is the latest review:
In a movie review on January 8, 2012 entitled Excellent, through provoking and educating., Bradley Farless wrote, “”Contagion” focuses on what could happen in the event of an outbreak of a highly infectious and lethal disease.It’s not action and explosion driven.It uses realistic situations (workers strikes, union strikes, lack of communication in and between governments and organizations), tension, and drama to progress the story-line to a believable, open-ended conclusion.I wasn’t wowed by any particular scene in the movie, but the overall experience was gripping and thought provoking.What would I do in that situation?How would our government actually react?How many people on the Internet blow smoke to make cash, and how many would take advantage of that sort of situation to make money?Once people started dying and public services started failing, would society collapse?Or would some semblance of order remain?Overall, it was definitely worth the rental fee.”
This reviewer gave Contagion a 5.0 star rating.

Miss Congeniality
Miss Congeniality, directed by Donald Petrie, featuring Sandra Bullock and William Shatner, earns spot #10 on the list of top movie downloads. Want to know what others think? Let’s see the latest reviews!
In a movie review on April 27, 2001 entitled Hilarious movie!, T. L. Fentress wrote, “I am sorry but I get so tired of the poor reviews so many critics write about films such as this movie that are pure enjoyment and entertainment. This movie is just that kind of movie…there is never a dull moment and isn’t that part of what movies are all about. Sandra Bullock is perfect for this role and while the premise sounds a little lame before you see the movie after seeing it I think anyone will be pleasantly surprised. If you are expecting an Oscar style movie…no you won’t get it. If you are expecting to laugh alot and be entertained…you will be. This movie is totally delightful and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It is funny, light, laughable. I loved it and I think anyone else will too if you allow yourself to jsut be entertained. Bullock is so funny and so great at this type of movie and she learns allot about herself throughout the film so there is character growth too. It will also give you a new appreciation for what the women in beauty pageants put themselves through…Read more“
