The Definitive Best in Film for 2010

kylestamourbrennan — Sun, 09 Jan 2011 23:59:04 +0000

So My list started getting put together a while ago but i held out until i felt I truly saw the best in this year’s batch of English Language motion pictures.

NUMBER 1: The Social Network

No surprise it seems to be everyones choice or what film a slight majority are leaning towards:

2. 127 Hours

Danny Boyle’s first film after the success that was Slumdog is an amazing visceral and melancholy experience.

3.The Kings Speech

4. Animal Kingdom

5. Exit Through the Gift Shop

6. Toy Story 3

7. Winter’s Bone

8. Scott Pilgrim vs The World

9. Inception

10. Black Swan

And so That’s my top ten for 2010.

Other recommendations:

The Town

Never Let Me Go

Blue Valentine

True Grit

Shutter Island

Please Give

Cyrus

The Kids Are Alright

Kick-Ass

I Am Love

The Ghost Writer

Inside Job

The Fighter

Enter the Void

I have yet to see Biutiful which I was hoping to catch to see if it would be in my top ten but it has yet to be released in Montreal so when its does comeout Ill rank it accordingly.

To Cap off my recap of the films of 2010 here’s probably the primary reason I’ve recommended Enter The Void.

til next year…..////

Ive been a fan of banksy since his work on the West bank barrier made international headlines but after a recent viewing of Exit through the gift shop, my enthusiasm is renewed. He’s my pic of the week.

Sweet deal
