Best

Movies that were almost as good as Revenge of the Sith

-

10. Gamer

Gave me the fun rush I felt I missed from Transformers 2, Terminator 4, Wolverine, and Gi Joe.

9. Up

I have nothing bad to say about this film at all, I just didn’t enjoy it as much as I’ve enjoyed other Pixar movies.

8. Harry Potter 6

I could watch anything with Harry, Ron, and Hermione in it, I love them all so much. Also it was nice to see more of Draco for a change.

7. I Love You, Man

I loved the bromance, it was funny, and I wish I had a friend like Sydney.

6. Law Abiding Citizen

I was completely hooked and my adrenaline was pumping till the very end.

5. District 9

I still can’t believe that those Aliens were all CG.

4. Star Trek

Hated everything Star Trek, except Spock, up till this movie.

3. Avatar

Best movie going experience I’ve ever had, only movie I’ve been to where audience applauded once it was over.

2. Watchmen

I was constantly enthralled with this movie, even watched the entire Directors Cut without getting tired once.

1. Where the Wild Things Are

I’ve never cried more in my life then I did during the first act of this movie and I don’t feel bad about it, my favorite movie sense Revenge of The Sith.

-

Worst

-

-

The worst movie of the year

-

Dragonball Evolution

Everything that could have been done wrong were done wrong, the action was boring, the characters were bland or obnoxious, the dialog sucked most all the time, and the effects were so bad that I noticed how horrible they were even though I was watching the movie on a screen under 6 inches. The worst movie I’ve ever seen in my life.

-

Most Disappointing (in no particular order)

-

-

These movies I don’t necessarily hate, but I was hoping for much better

-

Wolverine

Far too average.

Terminator 4

The motorcycle Terminators were cool, not much else was though.

Transformers 2

I actually saw this movie twice, I was entertained both times, but I also felt empty inside after each viewing, I’d probably watch it again if I had to but probably feel empty again.

Public Enemies

The trailer made it look really good, but I nearly walked out I was soooooooo damn bored, biggest disappointment.

The Men Who Stare At Goats

It started off pretty ok and I accepted it because I assumed it would be getting better, it didn’t. More disappointing then actually bad, though it had a FANTASTIC ending, if I had waited and saw it on DVD I probably would’ve liked it a lot more. Favorite movie on the disappointed list.

-

Most Surprising

-

-

Much like waking up to find out that today’s a snow day, these movies appeared to be lame but turned out surprisingly good.

-

Disney’s A Christmas Carol

What separated it from the rest was that they used the fact that it was a CG movie to good effect and they didn’t tone it down for the little kids.

17 Again

Much funnier then I was expecting, mostly because of Ned, he liked Star Wars AND Weird Al.
