Moderators Astro Hollywood Posted December 16, 2011 Moderators Share Posted December 16, 2011 End of the year's getting close, so it's almost time for Top 10's and all that. I won't reveal mine yet, because I'm pretentious, and that's going to happen at great length on my blog. In fact, here's part one of that, way too long to paste - the also-rans, and stuff that stank. Top 20 movies of 2011 - Part 1  So what are people thinking for the best of the year? I had to stretch my regular Top 10 to a Top 20 because there was so much stuff I absolutely loved this year.  To follow this up, the first half of my Top 20 is now up.  Be warned though, even by my standards of harping on about movies, it's ridiculously in depth.

Vice Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 (edited) Friends With Benefits  Surprisingly good and refreshing rom-com. Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis are both deliver solid performances in this, and the chemistry between them holds the film together nicely. A note on Timberlake: he pulls off slight dorkishness very well - a stark contrast to Bad Teacher, in which the dorkishness is pushed too far to disastrous results.  This is fun and engaging throughout, especially with the little ironic jabs at rom-coms themselves.

The King Of Swing Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Rise of the planet of the apes  Starts off a little pants but when it got going was a really enjoyable film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Seven Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Re: SickWoy's list; I really liked Source Code until the very end which to me felt like post-test screening tacked on guff that took away from the preceding 80 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Galt Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Source Code lost me about twenty minutes in when it started skipping over its own contrived premise and then got worse and worse but I quite liked the end because it had much larger implications than the rest of the film.

Paid Members Thunderplex Posted December 18, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted December 18, 2011 I thought Source Code was ok for what it was. Heard a lot of bad reviews, so wasn't expecting much, so was quite pleased. Â Just watched The Inbetweeners. I approached it from a 3 episodes in 1 angle rather than as a movie, and enjoyed it as much as the show. Glad I didn't pay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 The Omen is a good film that is scary, it stars Gregory Peck who is a good actor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Dead Mike Posted December 19, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted December 19, 2011 The new Louis CK stand-up offering 'Live at The Beacon theatre' is tremendous. I don't usually watch stand-up DVD's but I recommend you check this out if you get the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Big Trev had the flu today, so he stayed in bed all day watching films on the television. Here's the reviews: Â Muppets Take ManhattanA nice little film, not amazing but still watchable enough. Here's a lovely song from said film: Â Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.Never seen this before, boy has Big Trev been missing out! A great film, the two main characters had great chemistry too. All throughout the film though, Robert Redford kept reminding me of someone. Evenutally I figured it out, it was Lucas Grabeel from High School Musical. Just add that awesome moustache of Redford's and he'd be the spitting image. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
