Thor (2011) starring Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman , Anthony Hopkins, and Rene Russo Watch the trailer for Thor (source: soman4567 ) When I went to see this film, I've only seen the trailer and didn't know much about it. So, I didn't know what to expect. I wasn't even sure if I wanted to see it, but I was curious and of course, with Natalie Portman in it and after hearing good reviews about it, I went to see this film. I must say, I'm glad I did because I was pleasantly surprised that it was pretty good. Though, it was a lil' slow at the beginning, but once the story progressed, it got better and better. The story was very well written. Great direction by Kenneth Branagh ! The cast were pretty good as well including Chris Hemsworth who played the title role, Thor . Natalie Portman played the Scientist Jane Forster (love interest of Thor) was good here as well. Anthony Hopkins was great as usual. Nice to see Rene Russo in this film, even...

Hanna (2011) starring Saoirse Ronan, Eric Bana, Cate Blanchett, Tom Hollander        Watch the trailer for Hanna (source: hollywoodstreams )  I just saw Hanna recently and thought it was AWESOME! This was one of the few films I've been following and anticipating to see since I heard one of my favorite directors Joe Wright was directing it with an outstanding and talented cast in Saoirse Ronan (leading the cast in the title role) with Eric Bana , Cate Blanchett , Tom Hollander , and Olivia Williams . This film was all that and more! It was much more than I expected and far surpasses my expectations. It definitely delivered, both the film and its actors' strong and solid performances.

  The Lincoln Lawyer (2011) starring Matthew McConaughey , Marisa Tomei , Ryan Phillippe, Josh Lucas Watch the trailer for The Lincoln Lawyer   (source: TheTubeTrailers )

Sucker Punch (2011) starring Emily Browning, Abbie Cornish, Jena Malone,  Vanessa Hudgens, Jamie Chung, Carla Gugino, Jon Hamm Watch the trailer for Sucker Punch    (source: trailers ) 

The Adjustment Bureau (2011) starring Matt Damon , Emily Blunt Watch the trailer for The Adjustment Bureau     (source: hollywoodstreams ) I just saw The Adjustment Bureau and thought it was a very good film! My kind of movie too as it had plenty of action , a lil' sci-fi thriller with plenty of an-edge-of-your-seat suspense , mystery , and romance all in one! It was quite an entertaining movie with an unexpected humor too. Though it reminded me a bit of Matt Damon 's successful Bourne Trilogy films with all the running and chasing scenes, but you know what? It was great and it worked very well in this film too. I must say, I loved and enjoyed watching this movie from beginning to end.

Just Go With It (2011) starring Adam Sandler , Jennifer Aniston , Nicole Kidman , Dave Matthews Watch the trailer for Just Go With It   (source: GeckoMoviesCom )
