Best of 2009 (Part 7 of 10)

4) “Observe and Report” (Warner Bros., dir. Jody Hill)
Because it was a movie about a mall security guard, this film got lost in the Paul Blart shuffle. A shame since writer-director - and UNCSA filmmaking grad – Jody Hill has transformed himself into the reining master dark comedies. I dare anyone to watch the hilariously bent finale of this film and not erupt with laughter. It’s impossible, I say. On DVD and Blu Ray.
