My best of 2011

Agenda Movie Club: Johnny English Reborn
Johnny English Reborn Oliver Parker 2011 Best parkour ever. Ari Shapiro ain’t got a damn thing on Johnny English. OK, so, yeah, this is obviously not the best thing Rowan Atkinson has ever done. That would probably be season three … Continue reading

Agenda Movie Club: Doubt
Doubt John Patrick Shanley 2008 This is either the second or third time I’ve seen this, and the thing that I really want to talk about each time I watch it is that scene on the street with Viola Davis … Continue reading
