Best Film of 2009?

[Brumerican]

I've seen I Love You Man a few times. It's probably one of the worst films I've ever seen. Even crap action films without any story at all can keep me watching, but I just found myself not being interested in the slightest to this. Will need to watch a few I haven't seen on that list to give an answer.

Why have you watched the worst film you have ever seen a "few times" :shock:

Was Slumdog 2009?

That's probably the best. But I voted Hangover because it's my favourite.

Pelham was bloody awful

I went for Up. It was toss up between that and The Hangover, but the Chinese guy ruined the latter's chances. I just liked the dog

The Chinese guy didn't amuse me either. Reminded me of the classicly shit comedy trying to get a cheap laugh.

I probably didn't word it very well. I meant I've seen it a few times in this thread, mentioned as a top film.

Pelham was bloody awful

Just checked and Pelham was released in the UK in January 2009.

I still don't see what was so bad about Pelham :oops:

That is really tough in all honesty. There have been quite a few good films out this year. There are some that aren't even on the list. However, I will choose from the ones on the list, as it makes the choice easier (slightly).

I think the best films have been Public Enemies, The Hangover, Star Trek and Zombieland. I enjoyed each of them for different reasons. It really is difficult to compare them being that they are all varying styles of film. However, if I had to choose one then I would go for Public Enemies. Fantastic film in my opinion, plus I am into that whole era so I enjoyed it a lot.

I said I wasn't going to mention films that aren't on the list. Yet, there are a few (that I can remember) that I feel are also deserving of a mention. They are: In The Loop, Mesrine (Killer Instinct and Part 2) and Moon. I can't think of any others right now but I think they are also worth a mention.

Biggest let down for me was Funny People. It was good, however I expected so much more. 2012 was also a terrible film, although I didn't expect too much from it to be honest.

Anyway, that is my take on the year, from the best group of films to a couple of poor films.

I watched Funny People tonight.

I thought it was terrible. Just not an enjoyable watch as far as I was concerned. I also thought Knocked Up was shit. I like Seth Rogen, but not many of his films.

Echoing what Nayson says, definitely Let the Right One In.

[Grant(aka_eddy)]

I'm with The Rev and Let the Right One In. A really enchanting film that one, very well shot, great acting and some memorable scenes.

Star Trek and Inglorious Basterds were great fun though.

Still have to see Up! and District 9 and looking forward to both.

[Jez]

Let the right one in, if it is indeed this year, seems i saw it ages ago.

Pure fun Zombieland, Bastards & Star Trek all worth a mention.

Worse?

Easily Transformers and Wolverine. How a film can have robots and explosions be boring and make no sense, is quite an achievement!

[trekka]

I watched Inglorious Basterds yesterday, great film. I also thought The Taking of Pelham 123 was a bit poo.

[Pelle]

I'm still to see Terminator, Inglorious basterds and Public enemies so save my voting for now. Out of the ones I've seen so far Slumdog millionaire is probably the best

[Brumerican]

Funny People was the biggest case of false advertising since the The never ending story.

[omariqy]

Slumdog or Hangover from that list. I really like adventureland.

[Jon]

I'm gonna have to say this. Released in April 2009. Recommended to me by D1 and Sie, both posters on this very website. A sensationally good film.

I have heard some really good reveiws on this. Really good.

Is it in English though, or is it subtitled?

shouldn't put me off, but it does, if it's foreign language.

My fave film this year: definitely UP!

For a CGI i think it's fantastic.

It is both touching and funny, and leaves you with a warm glow afterwards.

Moon, was the best film i've seen this year, and then Let the right one in.

[Stevo985]

Was Gran Torino2009? If so, that would be on my list. Loved that film.

[Pelle]

Agreed. I likied it a lot. Even better than Slumdog.
