Top ten 2009 movies

a. The side of truth: Directed by Ricky Gervais and Mather Roinson: Written by Ricky Gervais and Mathew Robinson: Cast Ricky Gervais, Jenifer Garner, Rob Lowe, Jason Bateman, Christopher Guest, Tina Fey, Louis C.K., Jonah Hill and Jeffery Tambor.

For those who are not well versed with Ricky Gervais, he is a talented film maker cum actor. He is the person who created Office and Extras and has managed to star alongside other leading Hollywood movie stars. This is the first film that he has had a hand in directing, writing and staring.

b. State of play: Directors: Kevin Macdonald: Writters: Mathew Michael Carnahan, Tony Gilroy and Peter Morgan: Cast: Russel Crowe, Ben Affleck, Rachel Adams, Helen Mirren and Jason Bateman.

We are all familiar with works by Russel Crowe and Ben Affleck. They have acted in some of the best box office movies and a movie that combines the two actors is just mind blowing. The story line is based on the mini series State of Play that features in BBC. The story line os about a high flying senator with presidential ambitions (Ben Affleck) who finds himself on the receiving end of reporters (Russel Crowe) and his political nemesis as soon as his mistress is found dead, a mirror of today's political landscape. To get a better view of what the movie has to offer, get a copy of State of Play DVD.

c. Up: Directors: Pete Docter and Bob Peterson: Writer: Bob Peterson: Cast: (voices) Ed Asner, Christopher Plummer an John Ratzenberger.
