Crazy Heart (2009)

Solid drama with quality performances and music. A bit slow in the middle, but I didn't mind too much.

Rating: C+

Bernie (2011)

A custom made role in a quirky indie film to show off Jack Black’s wide array of talents. A nice change of pace after several dozen crap-heaps he’s starred in. Based on a crazy real life story. If you are a fan of director Linklater's earlier films, and you should be, then you will certainly enjoy this new character piece.

Rating: B-
