hogso Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 The best films I've seen this year are probably We Need to Talk About Kevin, Melancholia, and Senna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Even though I have never heard about that one I think I can guess what it is about! haha I think I would like it! Rutger Hauer + OTT gore + theme tune from The Raccoons = Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No no, that was two seperate points; The films I listed are my picks for the year, but I was lamenting that I hadn't watched the likes of Drive, Cedar Rapids et cetera yet.

villa4europe Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 i saw the guard the night before i saw the inbetweeners and found it funnier, not as many laughs, nowhere near as many failed attempts at getting you to laugh but when it hit the spot i couldnt stop laughing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, you see that makes sense. I did a sizeable double take when I read your original post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodders Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 'The King's Speech', 'Black Swan' and 'True Grit' were all last year aswell so stop cheating people! well they were on cinemas this year when I watched them in january / feb so pfft! I can say this for certain as I watched them all in the aftermath of my break up which was the beg of Jan! realised I forgot The Inbetweeners - was definitely very funny at the time, but felt more like a long episode than a film Saw ROTPOTA too now i remember, enjoyed that one as well - quite a few good films this year!

Stevo985 Posted December 16, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted December 16, 2011 I'd go for Drive. Honourary mention for most disappointingly awful: Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briggaman Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I'd go for Drive. Honourary mention for most disappointingly awful: Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy 'Drive' really was sex on a screen, and that was just Gosling... Seriously though, most of the shots in it were fantastic and the soundtrack was great. If I had to choose one film then this would probably be it, although it would be close with 'Win Win'.

ml1dch Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 'The King's Speech', 'Black Swan' and 'True Grit' were all last year aswell so stop cheating people! Released January 7th 2011, 21st January 2011 and 11th February 2011 respectively. So no, they weren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite the fact that I also live in England, that doesn't determine when a film was made or initially released. All of those films were made and first released in 2010, therefore making them films from 2010. Not that it matters as most people on here didn't see them until 2011. I was just stating that they are actually 2010 films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming you enjoyed it, I presume that Tree Of Life will be appearing on your best films of 2008* list? *the year it was filmed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyM3000 Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 So far this year I have seen Limitless Battle LA Source Code The Hangover 2 Xmen Transformers Horrible Bosses Captain America Attack The Block Planet Of The Apes Moneyball I thought Limtless was very good, something new and different. Horrible Bosses was very entertaining. I prefer longer movies with action, they all kinda merge into one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parisvilla Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy Moneyball 50/50 King's Speech Drive .... are the five that immediately spring to mind that were particularly enjoyable. Still listening to tunes from the 'Drive' soundtrack pretty much on a daily basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brumerican Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I'm going to go the comedy route and say Bridesmaids, Crazy Stupid Love, Cedar Rapids , Super and Tucker and Dale V Evil . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 In the order I have seen them.... Animal Kingdom True Grit Senna Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes Snowtown Two aussie films in there which is fairly interesting to me. To be honest I'm fairly lucky in that there's a fantastic indie cinema just ten minute down the walk from me. It only has one screen and it mostly only plays good films. I rarely venture out to the multiplex these days and when I do it usually ends up in a disaster like Insidious. This year has also mostly been a year in which I have caught up on some oldies. My film of the year is The Good, The Bad and The Ugly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
