#140RVW: The Great Muppet Caper (1981)
While never hitting heights of 1st movie, very strong sophomore effort. Really has fun with the expanded range of film and pushes boundaries
#140RVW: The Social Network (2010)
Good adaptation work. Makes you want to learn details the movie can’t provide while humming along with energy that the book can’t deliver…
#140RVW: The Descendants (2011)

#140RVW: The Last Rites of Joe May (2011)
Farina’s last great role. An acting showpiece, he’s fantastic. The film, not so much. Standard moody regretful drama; you’ve seen it before.
