[tps_title]Caterina Gioino’s Top Midyear Picks in Movies[/tps_title]
- Spy
Wow, this was way funnier than the commercial made it seem. A perfect combination of parody and thriller, Spy provides great laughs with on the edge-of-your-seat suspense we’d expect from Casino Royale or even the Mission Impossible movies.
- The Overnight
A small indie film that features Adam Scott and Jason Schwartzman in full frontal nudity. Need I say more?
- Maggie
Because Abigail Breslin is a zombie and her dad is the human, Arnold Schwarzenegger. And if you didn’t know that Arnold Schwarzenegger had feelings or knew how to [somewhat] act, now you know.
- The End of the Tour
Jason Segel and Jesse Eisenberg come together to give an insider look behind David Foster Wallace’s and David Lipsky’s interviews. While the actual plot might not surprise you, the entire chemistry of the duo sure will.
- Anesthesia
If there was one thing that I saw this year at Tribeca, it had to be this. Maybe I’m partially biased because they filmed at my school or because I’m weirdly in love with Tim Blake Nelson, but the film, about a Columbia teacher mugged, plus the added pressure of a mother-son relation, and every other person that comes into play–it makes for an unforgettable movie.
