66. Charlie Wilson's War - 9

My main problem with this movie was Tom Hanks' continuing inability (or perhaps, wish) to play what by most accounts is a fairly bad guy straight.  This guy was an alcoholic, a womanizer, a drug abuser... but he comes out looking like a teddy bear.  Propaganda has never been so much fun!  But still in all, it made for a fascinating political/history lesson on the war in Afghanistan.  And it WAS fun.

67. Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street - 7.5

It was very well done... but I just don't really like musicals.  I wasn't really expecting a full out MUSICAL going in, seeing as I didn't even know this was based on an actual musical.  The entire cast was spot on, and the story was very entertaining... but it was a musical.  Ick.

68. The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep - 8

Another Christmastime family fun movie.  This one was actually scary in some parts (even Ethan was frightened).  Another top notch cast, even if you can tell where the story is going to go in the first 20 minutes.  Served as an interesting mini-history lesson on WWII as well.
