Current movies recommended by the Tampa Bay Times
 
Published Nov. 15, 2012|Updated Nov. 15, 2012

1 Skyfall - Daniel Craig now has an irrevocable license to thrill. The best James Bond flick since Goldfinger.

2 Flight - Denzel Washington's portrayal of a drug-addicted airline pilot puts him squarely in contention for a third Academy Award.

3 Argo -Ben Affleck's thrilling, funny and true story of Hollywood and the CIA rescuing hostages in Iran. One of the year's finest.

4 A Late Quartet and This Must Be the Place - Enjoy terrific, against-type performances by Christopher Walken and Sean Penn, respectively.

5 Wreck-It Ralph - Cameos from an arcade of '80s video game heroes make this into something like Who Framed Donkey Kong.
