This November encompassed some incredible films with breaking records in the box office and top list celebrities to ensure the attraction. Here’s a top five list of must-see movies this holiday weekend.
1. Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part II
Coming in as number one on the box office chart after its first weekend’s release, the highly anticipated finale to a five part film brought the rivalry “Team Jacob vs. Team Edward” to an end. Now Team Bieber can continue to prevail. Breaking Dawn Part II, directed by Bill Condon, presents Kristen Stewart, Robert Patterson and Taylor Lautner on screen for one final time.
2. Lincoln
Steven Spielberg’s narrative feature about president Abraham Lincoln, starring Daniel Day-Lewis, proves its relevance by making the number two spot in the box office for its second weekend in theatres. Hopefully you and the family are fans of the 16th U.S. President because there are two hours and thirty nine minutes of him in store.
3. Skyfall
Sony Pictures’ movie, Skyfall is appearing in theatres for its second weekend and holding the third spot in the box office.

4. Wreck it Ralph
Can we ever get enough of Disney movies? Disney Studios has done it again with the light-hearted film, Wreck It Ralph. A story of heriosim and happinness about an arcade game player who is tired of playing the assigned game and decides to stop playing to explore other games. After its third weekend in theatres, Wreck It Ralph is holding on to fourth place in the Box Office.

5. Flight
Make sure you don’t drink and drive during the holiday! …and certainly don’t drink and fly a plane.
