Great choices. I am surprised you gave Observe and Report an "honorable mention. That film was one of the worst of the year.
ReplyDeleteI really liked what it tried to do. the film-making wasn't great but i am a huge fan of dark comedy.
ReplyDeleteHurt Locker was great film, as where the others on the list, and thank god you only had Avatar in HM because it as to be mentioned for visuals but the script was terrible. Also Public Enemies was a piece of shit
ReplyDeletevery good but district 9 should be number one 2009
