Movies Watched, January 2017

I admit I kinda went overboard on this month. I obsessively watched everything on TV just because they were so good. Who can resist such? Strangely, my sleeping time was better this month. Most movies ended just a little after 11PM (except some weekend movies) so I can go straight ahead to sleep, which was nice.

The featured image would be my top 2-3 films of the month.

January 1st to January 31st. Total: 55 movies

1. Big Hero 6 (2014)

Movies marked with asterisk were watched in cinema. For full list please go ahead to my Letterboxd. Also, for real-time update, hop on to my diary where I wrote slightly longer review on the movie. Since I already halfway on my 100 movies a year, I'm going to take months ahead real slow. Yaaayy.

Just to be clear on "How could you watch so many movies?" There are two TV channels that broadcast two movies back-to-back after 7PM. And there are two other channels which broadcast a movie a little before 11PM. Not to mention during weekend those two first channels would add another movie besides the two. Watching movies is how I unwind at the end of the day. People said it's bad for your health, it's not a successful people's habit, etc. I don't care. I'd rather watch movies than most national TV programs. They are rubbish. I do watch news program and some sitcoms though.

Any movies you watched from the list? Any thoughts?
