Review: 2012 Top Ten

So it is once again that time of the year when everyone wants to shout out their opinion on which should be named the ten best movies of the year. If you think this blog is any different to all those rants you are mistaken; we will undeniably nominate ten movies as The Movie Watch’s “Top Ten of 2012”, as we have done in the past. But never the less we do hope our list will be somewhat enlightening in terms of tastes and options. And once again we do not intend to rank our choices in terms of elitist taste; these are just some movies we highly recommend you don’t miss, and probably best you catch before awards season. 

With no further ado, these are The Movie Watch’s Top Ten of 2012 in no particular order, other than alphabetical. Some have not been reviewed, we have been lazy this last few months, but reviews will come up ASAP. Anyway, here is our list:

Review: THE BEST EXOTIC MARIGOLD HOTEL

If you are broke and looking for retirement look no further; The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel for the Elderly and Beautiful is -well- it is supposed to be a retirement center in Jaipur, where Westerners can outsource their elderly; the latest venture of the young entrepreneur Sonny Kapoor (Dev Patel). Sonny inherited the shabby inn from his father; against his mother’s wishes, and without any previous experiences Sonny reopens it. But this is not the story of Sonny; this is the story of The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel’s guests, seven elderly english-folks who found themselves retired in Jaipur for some reason or other. If you can’t see where this is going, then you need to get out more.
