It’s been a funny old year for cinema, and I’ve seen an awful lot of films. Still, a lot of them were absolute guff, so it was relatively easy to choose at least five that I’d happily put in a list of good films of 2009. I doubt I’m likely to see any more films before the end of Thursday, and even if I did, I highly doubt that they’d be any good, so I’ve decided to compile my list now. Unfortunately I actually managed to think of seven films, rather than five, so I had to expand it to ten. So here, in no particular order, is my top ten films of 2009. Do you agree with my choices?
Let the Right One In
Watchmen
Star Trek
Zombieland
Inglourious Basterds
Paranormal Activity
The Hurt Locker
Moon
Coraline
The Imaginarium of Dr Parnassus
I’ve only seen 3 on your list. “Star Trek” did a great job of establishing the characters and their quirks. I loved “Let the Right One In”; it was surprisingly poignant for a vampire film. Didn’t like “Coraline”. Oh, the animation was clever, but I didn’t care for the plot changes.
Happy New Year, Icy!
Happy New Year!!!!!!
