Slumdog Millionaire 2008,  R)
Slumdog Millionaire
Slumdog Millionaire is an outstanding piece of work, from beginning to end, literally. It perfectly blends the hollywood and bollywod styles, with amazing shots throughout the film and a breathtaking screenplay adaptation. Definetely worthy of all the Oscars it won, and it is without a doubt, the best film from 2008

Such a brilliant movie with a moving yet funny story line. The great cast helps make this movie brilliant. really original and enjoyable movie with phenomenal acting by the cast, and a very pleasant surprise by abigail breslin

Amores Perros 2000,  R)
Amores Perros
I finally got to see this film that many call a modern Mexican classic. Along with Pan's Labrynth, this is the best film in decades. Alejandro González Iñárritu delivers his first great masterpiece along with a great screenplay and breathtaking performances by every single member of the cast, it couldn't of been better. And I have to say that this is one of the best car crashes I've seen in a motion picture and thus one of the best beginnings to a story. Since then, my eyes were glued to the screen. Masterpiece!!

No Country for Old Men 2007,  R)
No Country for Old Men
this movie is the proof that a suspenseful thriller can be made without investing millions upon millions of dollars to accomplish. all it takes is genius writing and genius acting. the acting by tommy lee jones,brolin, and especially javier bardem steal the show to make it one of the best of the decade. this movie will stuck in everyone's mind for the ending. the bizarre yet outstanding and astonishing ending will make people think about it to fit the pieces of the puzzle
6
The Departed 2006,  R)
The Departed
Winner of 4 Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director. A fast moving, intense action thriller. Scorsese, DiCaprio, and Nicholson together to create what I believe is one of the best films of the decade. The storytelling is amazing, and the music goes perfect with every scene. another scorcese classic!

I just fell in love with this movie since the beginning until the credits rolled. AMAZING!

The Dark Knight 2008,  PG-13)
The Dark Knight
An outstanding film. Much better than I had expected and probably the best superhero movie. Yes, better than superman and spiderman, not only for its great action scenes, but also for the moral and ethical lessons it gves throughout the film. Everyone in the cast makes this movie great, but the show is definetely stolen by Heath Ledger as the Joker.

A pure powerhouse entertainment. A total success from start to finish. Sean Penn is magnificent. Tim Robbins is brilliant. Kevin Bacon is teriffic. A powerful cast. The best picture of 2003.

Unsettling and unforgettable. It sticks in your mind and dosent let go. It will take your breath away and knock you out.
23

This film is just different and wonderful. The screenplay by Charlie Kaufman is definetely one of the best I have seen. The acting by Nicholas Cage, Meryl Streep, and Chris Cooper are also great, worthy of all the actingoscar nominations.
24

The movie is dramatic that makes you laugh, cry, wish, believe, think.

The Pursuit of Happyness is not only about making dreams come true, but it's a lesson of strengh, determination and perseverance.
33
Bridge to Terabithia 2007,  PG)
Bridge to Terabithia
I dont say this so often but i just love this movie! I don't know why i like this movie so much

This movie was simply great. It's not the special effects dominated, crazy, uninsteresting plot (kinda narnia type) movie that I thought it was going to be: its just a simple story of two kids that use their imaginations. it was the 1st time i saw annasophia or josh and they sure did a good job. the ending was kind of dramatic to take a child to watch it; but overall: fantastic!!! without a doubt one of the best walt disney movies in modern times
34
Apocalypto 2006,  R)
Apocalypto
For cinematography and costuming alone this movie deserves recognition. Add in an intense story and hot action it was well worth watching, so much so you don't even really pay attention to the subtitles. Historicaly accurate? Who knows, who cares. Be prepared for violence and blood though...a trend in a Mel Gibson film it seems.
35
The Incredibles 2004,  PG)
36
Catch Me If You Can 2002,  PG-13)
Catch Me If You Can
Leonardo di caprio + tom hanks + steven spielberg = great movie

Chicago 2002,  PG-13)
Chicago
Not a really big fan of musicals but this one is so different and bizarre. Definetely not what I was expecting. I like the way they connect the story to the music parts, I think thats the reason this movie got the Oscar. Catherine Zeta-Jones, Renee Zellweger, Richard Gere: awesome performances
47
Zodiac 2007,  R)
Zodiac
this is a very well acted, directed film but it was a little too long for this kind of movie.

Burn After Reading 2008,  R)
Burn After Reading
This movie is a great dark comedy, and typical from the coen brothers. Their way of making screenplays and then transform them into movies is just great. Then if you add the great acting by all these great actors, it becomes one of the best comedies of the year and of the last few years. I wonder what the coen brothers are going to do next.
