My Top 10 Films of 2011

Well it’s that time again, where I scan through the films that I have seen this year and decide which ones rocked my world. As a sometime-filmmaker myself, often the films that I love are ones that inspire me to make films so my list is sometimes different from other.

But enough gabbing, here’s the list:

1) Rise of the Planet of the Apes

2) We need to talk about Kevin

3) True Grit

4) Drive

5) X-men: First Class

6) Black Swan

7) The Inbetweeners

8) The Kings Speech

9) Red, White and Blue

10) 50/50

The films that almost made it:

The Guard, Warrior, Crazy Stupid Love, Paranormal Activity 3, Stakeland, Jackass 3D and Source Code

And films that I didn’t get to see this year but might be on next years list:

Hugo, , the Artist.

So, what do you think? What’s your top 10 of the year?

The Top 10 of 2007

That time of year again where I look back at all that cinema has given me over the last 12 months. This year, unfortunately, it was easier to pick crap films than good ones. Spiderman 3 and Right at your Door hold the joint titles of WORST FILM OF THE YEAR! Why did you do it to me Spiderman? Why?!I generally rate films on if they inspire me to make more films so my top 10 might be very different from yours. 1. The Bourne Ultimatum 2. The Nines3. Superbad 4. Planet Terror5. Atonement 6. Death Proof  (first half. second half was really boring)7. Casino Royale8. Transformers9. 28 Weeks Later10. Jesus Camp What u think? The films that didn’t quite meet the top 10 areThe Fountain, Smokin’ Aces, 300, Hot Fuzz, Zodiac, 30 Days of Night, Stranger than Fiction, Notes on a Scandal, Knocked Up and Venus. All great films in themselves.
