Top ten of 2010

Post by adrian »

Didn't see a thread for favorites of 2010 so here it is. True Grit tops my list as my only Tier 9 film.

1. True Grit
2. Black Swan
3. Kick-Ass
4. Toy Story 3
5. Winter's Bone
6. 127 Hours
7. Vincere
8. How to Train Your Dragon
9 and 10 to be determined.

I have yet to see The King's Speech and Enter the Void, which, going by PSI, could round off my list. The most "critickally overrated" films for me were Inception and The Social Network.

In comparison here is "Criticker's Top Ten" projected by APIQuicky in another thread:

1. Toy Story 3
2. Inception
3. Black Swan
4. Exit Through the Gift Shop
5. 127 Hours
6. The Social Network
7. The King's Speech
8. Scott Pilgrim vs. The World
9. Winter's Bone
10. The Illusionist

I know that many people think 2010 has been a crappy year for movies. But it's not without its standouts and there are quite a handful of them in my opinion (or maybe I'm just easier to please than most users here in Criticker). Lots of 2010 movies I have yet to see including some that might possibly be in my top ten had I seen them. But at the moment these are my top ten:

1. The Social Network
2. Inception
3. Winter's Bone
4. A Prophet (perhaps this is a 2009 movie? but I included it coz it had a 2010 US release date)
5. The Secret in Their Eyes (again, a 2010 US release date)
6. The American (hugely underrated in my opinion)
7. The Kids Are All Right
8. Toy Story 3
9. Lebanon
10. Vincere

Other notable films I loved/liked:
Fish Tank, The Ghost Writer, Mother and Child, Greenberg, Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World, Exit Through the Gift Shop, Animal Kingdom, Easier with Practice, How to Train Your Dragon, Kick-ass, Solitary Man, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

Films I have not seen but might possibly love/like:
The King's Speech, Let Me In, 127 Hours, Never Let Me Go, Blue Valentine, Another Year, True Grit, The Illusionist, The Way Back, Biutiful, Made in Dagenham, White Material, The Fighter, Please Give, Easy A, Cyrus, Rabbit Hole, Somewhere, Four Lions, Monsters, Get Low, Hereafter, Tiny Furniture, Tangled, Barney's Version (Wow.. A lot of catching up to do.)

Acclaimed Films I was Disappointed with:
Black Swan, The Town, Mother (decent films but I was expecting to be wowed)

I glanced over my "top ten" movies I saw this year. It is pitiful, I missed so much.

1. Toy Story 3 (Tier 10)
2. Inception (Tier 10)
3. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Tier 8)
4. Ironman 2 (Tier 6)
5. Robin Hood (Tier 6)
6. Alice in Wonderland (Tier 5)
7. The Expendables (Tier 5)
8. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (Tier 5)
9. Machete (Tier 3)
10. The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (Tier 1)

I must say that I'm surprised :o for one because I haven't seen as much full featurefilms of 2010 as I would have guessed and secondly TWILIGHT made it into this TOP 2010 just because of what I said before... :evil:

Out of twelve films I've seen so far from 2010, seven of them are in my top three tiers:
1. Inception
2. The Social Network
3. Scott Pilgrim vs. the World

Still have a bunch of films I'm trying to see, including Toy Story 3, Black Swan, Kick-Ass, Winter's Bone, The Ghost Writer, 127 Hours, Four Lions, Buried, The Kids Are All Right, The Fighter, Easy A, Blue Valentine, The King's Speech, Lebanon, Rabbit Hole, Never Let Me Go, The Illusionist, and Biutiful, amongst others mentioned here. Quite a lot missed but at least I'll try to see some of them soon.
