This week The Directors Cut reviews Young Adult, and count down the Top Ten Movies about Babysitters. Young Adult is the new movie written by Diablo Cody, an attempt to win another Academy Award since her debut with Juno. Young Adult stars Charlize Theron who plays a writer for young adult novels, and shortly after her divorce she finds out her high school boyfriend just had a baby. This jealousy of her new ex-boyfriends new baby, motivates her to go back to her high school town in hopes to win him back. Fortunately for Diablo Cody she had either the worst high school experience, or the best, since she understands the high school dynamic better than anyone else. Also, she really needs to get over her past, if it was as bad as I guess it was. Our top ten list was inspired by the new Jonah Hill movie called “The Sitter.” And no, he’s no Elizabeth Shue.

So the Academy Awards are approaching near and so are the Critics Choice Awards. As some of you know, I (Dan) actually vote for the Critics Choice Awards, and that means studios are begging for my attention. This is the time of year I get inundated with screeners. This week we take a peek at “Shame” the story of Michael Fassbender with a sexual addiction. Carey Mulligan also is in this film as his twisted sister looking for a place to stay, and has nobody to turn to, except for her brother. There is a ton of full frontal nudity in this film, including Carey Mulligan! But, this movie has a ton of slow moments trying to show character, but it has no real entertainment value. I know I really don’t like to give my reviews away here in the blog, but if you want to see a ton of nude people, having sex, dealing with some underlying depression or sexual addiction. JUST WATCH PORN, at least those people look like they’re having a good time, and they’re not moping around and having some internal anguish on screen. But this show has some fantastic moments, so please check it out and download it below!
