Favorite and Least Favorite Movies Seen In 2012 (Video)

This is a collection, in no particular order, of this examiner's favorite and least favorite movies on DVD that were reviewed in 2012.

If you are looking for a number of the 'best' movies of the year, this isn't that list. Only movies that were released on DVD can be considered and most Oscar bait seems to hit theaters in the last quarter of a given year. Some of these releases came out years ago and I just caught up on them now. This was meant to reflect some of the DVDs that I happened to review in 2012 which made the biggest impression on me.

The favorites

'The Avengers'

'A Separation'
