In 2008 I saw about 58 films in movie houses (where I believe movies you want to see should be seen!!)
Of the 58 about 48 would fall into the so-so category mainly forgotten a few minutes after seeing them.
On my best list are 2 that opened in 2007 but that I didn't see until 2008. I am
listing them in the order I saw them. My criteria for being a best film
is that I want to see them again and/or I would buy the DVD version
(after seeing them FIRST in a movie theatre--get the message? LOL)
There Will Be Blood
No Country For Old Men
Australia
Cadillac Records
Milk
On the worst list: (in no particular order)
Fast Girls
Smart People
Then She Found Me
I Dreamt Under The Water
The House Of Adam
The best performances of the year were Sean Penn in Milk and Josh Brolin in W and Milk. Brolin has really been giving great performances in his last 5 pictures.
I, basically, see a movie and post a review every Friday--will be seeing The Reader on Monday! :O)
