5 Awesome 2012 Summer Movies and 5 That Sucked
2012 has been a pretty average year for film, but not without its share of hits; we wrap up the 5 of the best and 5 of the worst.
As we near the end of the road in this summer movie season of 2012, it's time to look back at what has been a rather mediocre slate of movies both big and small. There were the hits, indeed, but I would argue there were more misses this season than most summers given expectations and sheer volume of releases. Some of the better summer films were smaller, some were as large as you would expect. Same goes for the poor entries this year, they were big and small. All in all I get the feeling audiences are ready to shift gears a little and move away from the franchises, reboots, sequels, and the rest of the nonsense littering the hottest months. Let's take a look at five films which met or exceeded expectations, and let's look at those films we need to scoop up off the lawn and discard.
