Armond White Approved, 2009

Add to my lists | Print this list

Culled from his reviews and scores on Rotten Tomatoes, a running tally of movies that received positive reviews from Armond White in 2009.

Note: This list originally included "The Hurt Locker", which White gave a positive review upon release, but which I removed after he spent much of the second half of the year, in typical Armondian fashion, decrying it as "now overrated" (he even included it a dismissal of it on his year-end "Better-Than List", comparing it negatively to "Brothers").
