2012 Sundance Breakouts

Bradley Cooper, Zoe Saldana, Clive Owen, Emily Blunt, Richard Gere, and James Marsden were just some of the stars onscreen at Sundance 2012. If the festival is the litmus test, it's been an incredibly fertile year for independent movies, with quirky comedies, political dramas, and documentaries that play like the tautest thrillers. Here's a roundup of some of the ones with the biggest buzz:

    No mention of John Dies at the End? That is my most hyped movie I want to see this year.

    as an indonesian, i'm proud with the producer, Toro, the director, Gareth, and the actors of this film! I watched the trailer, and interviewed Toro, and this film are amazing! The world will be entertained by the Silat martial art, a great, intense, and beautiful fight, just like kungfu! :)

    People said the same thing about stick fighting and now all the cops and the army are learning it. Have you ever seen Silat? It so fast and close it's scary, even for trained martial artists.

    West of Memphis, a powerful documentary about murder, corruption, class, grief and love. See it and get involved.

    seriously, if a swat team wanted you out of a tenament , umm no kungfo crap would save you, 8/10 loser movies at least what is in the Koolaid at Sundance do you guys actually watch this stuff and pat yourselves on the back for spending millions and making crap, no wonder everyone looks wasted

      Seriously, you sound like an idiot. How are you fairly judging movies from a still & a brief description. Open yourself to the possibility there are actually movies being made that are legit with good actors and amazing stories.

      And the definition of "Indie Films" shown at Sundance means they don't have the million dollar budgets that wide release films do.
