Now without furthur adieu, The list you have been waiting for
THE BEST FILMS OF 2011
24. BELLFLOWER
A good first attempt,One man's journey into love and heartbreak and the aftermath. Personal filmmaking not as Delicate and artsy as other films. This film is haunting and disturbing. Easy to dismiss, but the more i thought about this film the more it meant to me.
23. WARRIOR
This film came as a total surprise. It's entertaining with a story we have seen before that manages to make it new and emotionally resonant for the audience. Emotional but still a guy's movie that women will enjoy.
22. RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES
Well made and better then it should be.
21. CAPTAIN AMERICA
I know shocking isn't it. Nostalgic and one of the better Comic Book Movies. Though i would hate it and it ended up blowing Thor and Green Lantern out of the water.
20. 13 ASSASSINS
Takashi Miike Does it again, Beautiful landscapes and shots. Violent and an over 45 minute battle sequence. Push this film over the top to awesome.
19. BEGINNERS
18. LOVE CRIME
17. HARRY POTTER & THE DEATHLY HALLOWS: PART 2
The second half of a film. it can stand up on it's own
16. THE GUARD
15. MIDNIGHT IN PARIS
14. I SAW THE DEVIL
13. YOUNG ADULT
I identified with this film alot
12. DRIVE
11. MONEYBALL

Yeah, Captain America was great, right? Joe Johnston's best film since Honey I Shrunk the Kids.
ReplyDeleteI saw Jane Eyre; you didn't miss anything.
I agree with the list except moneyball. Can't see why so many folks liked this show. Then again, I don't like baseball and I thought it was going to be about statistics :)
