This is one of the funniest movies I've seen in a long time. Really genuinely funny, not stupid funny. Jason Segal wrote and stars in it, which I didn't realize until the credits. Love it! Also starring Kristen Bell and Mila Kunis. I watched all of the special features too. It was just that good.

Another hit from Guillermo del Toro, the brilliant director behind Pan's Labyrinth. The Orphanage (El Orfanato) will chill you to the bone. It is in Spanish with subtitles but the cinematography and acting are so well done you won't feel burdened by them. I saw it a couple of weeks ago and am still freaked out by it. Perfect for Halloween!
