Favourite Movies From The 00's

Recommended Posts

just watched The Departed again last night, such a great movie. Very well written.

The thing that frustrates me about The Departed is that Martin Scorsese gets SO much credit for directing it but in reality, it is hardly any different than Infernal Affairs (which is the Asian movie that it is a remake of)

Der Untergang

The Fog of War

Inconvenient Truth

The 11th Hour

Lord of the Rings trilogy

A Beautiful Mind

Mystic River

Napolean Dynamite

Jackass Number 2 (ya thats right)

Spider-Man 1 & 2

Batman Begins

the 1st 3 Harry Potter flicks.

 

 

It's odd, there aren't a ton of really strong dramas that stand out in my mind from this decade. Though i've yet to see No Country For Old Men & There Will Be Blood. Its been a wicked decade for documentaries and fantasy flicks though.

How can it make your best list if you haven't seen it? BECAUSE YOU BELIEVE THE HYPE but seriously it is great, the stark soundtrack absolutely makes the film.

 

I really enjoyed last year's Let the Right One In, creepy little swedish vampire film.

I still enjoy watching The Prestige from time to time, and also Marjane Satrapi's graphic novel come to life Persepolis is just brilliant.

Let the Right One In is fantastic! After seeing that and Martyrs (even though Martyrs is a joint France/Canada production), I have decided that European horror-type movies trump most everything that is produced in North America.
