Films of the decade
Thought i would do top ten of the year,and mention the films that I did not like
1:Star Trek:As a life long trekkie,J.J Abrams did justice to the greatest sci fi franchise and hauled it into the 21st century
2:Frost/Nixon:The intellectual Rocky,with great performances from Langella and Sheen
3:Avatar:The great return of James Cameron
4:Michael Jackson's This Is It:The great final performance of the King of Pop
5:The Wrestler:As a fan of wrestling,this film gave me a new perspective and respect for these men and women who risk their lives for entertainment
6:District 9:This years Cloverfeild,had a better robot fight than anything in Transformers 2
7:Anvil:The Story of Anvil:Humourous,sad,uplifting,the real life Spinal Tap
8:Gran Torino:A crafted story of redemption and sacrifice
9:Up:The continuation of Pixar magic
10:The Hangover:Surprisingly good,even better when seen next to its trailer
Also Rans:500 days of summer,Away we go,Slumdog millionaire,Curious case of Benjamin Button,Watchmen,Inglorious Bastards,Bruno,Funny People
Worst Films of the year
1:Transformers 2:The biggest sack of crap I have ever seen,with no redimable qualities
2:Observe and Report:Rape is funny,apparntly
3:Ace Ventura Jr:Cheap,tacky,humourless
4:Monsters V Aliens:Should have been good,dont get how it gets any good reviews what so ever
5:Fantastic Mr Fox:Visually decent,as funny as stepping on a cat

Avatar: Quite a hard film to fairly judge,for it had the most ridiculous hype of any film for quite a while.James Camerons return to cinema after a 12 year absence is flawed,but brilliant.The 3D was not in your face brilliant,but gave the film a polish,the story line was basic yet engaging.But its the visuals that make this film what it is.I dont think I have ever been as impressed visually by a film as I was during this,and in this sense may never be topped.Praise for the soundtrack as well,which is outstanding.This film will have its haters,those who focus on the minor flaws and ignore everything right in this film,and those who do this ,I have sympathy for,because they are missing something really special
5/5
