Arcee: So after getting a chance to finally see all of my favorite movies from 2010 a second time (this time in the comforts of my own home) I have finally decided which of these movies will make up my 10 favorite movies of that year. Right off from the start, I will say that I am glad that several animated films made the list. The years of animation being seen as a purely child’s genre are hopefully finally coming to an end. Three movies showed the general public that an animated film could be just as entertaining to adults and still appeal to children of all ages. Two movies on the list are there just because I am a guy and they definitely appealed to the immature and testosterone base individual in me. Four of the movies on the list are based on pure fanboyism. They were definitely not everyone’s favorites, but they appealed to me in a way that it did not to others; and I have no shame in admitting it. The final movie that comprises this list was just so unique and bold that it would be almost irresponsible to ignore. But enough talk, let me share my 10 best movies of 2010 with you all now…
Bros Review: The series, as the title suggests, is about two adult men who want to behave like children and we are not here for that.
Going Home With Tyler Cameron Review: This is a simple, no-nonsense but cliched watch, with Cameron's boyish charms taking centre stage.
Kaam Chalu Hai Review: Based on true events, this movie is thought-provoking and inspiring
Hands down best film of 2010 for me was Kick-Ass. Expendables belongs nowhere near my top 10 though.
Only thing I can agree with is Inception and Kick-Ass.
Jackass 3D was fun, but nothing special.
The Expendables was a complete disappointment. The latest Rambo was far superior.
Prince of Persia was HORRIBLE. Complete garbage.
Iron Man 2 was worse then the mediocre Iron Man.
How to Train your Dragon was awesome, I'll give ya that.
Despicable Me just didn't work for me. Came off kind of stupid and boring.
Tron: Legacy was a let down compared to the first. Relied to much on its visuals.
Toy Story 3 was great, probably the best animated film of 2010, but it doesn't belong at the #1 spot imo.
@Arcee: Oh, I know! It sucks that we can't get that balance. I thought 2004's version with Thomas Jane was able to capture more of the emotion of The Punisher, but it lacked the violence and revenge and instead made The Punisher look like a pussy.
The 2008 Punisher: War Zone managed to give us that awesome visual style of The Punisher mixed with the extreme violence, but it lacked depth for the character and went into "campy" territory. I will fully admit that I love the 08 version and it's my favorite of the three films made about him, but I still think there is someone out there that can find that perfect balance.
If they do give Punisher another try they should cast Ray Stevenson again, he IS The Punisher.
1) Scott Pligrim
2) Let me In
3) Jack ass 3d
4) Kickass
5) True Grit
6-10) Meh
Scott Pilgrim and Kickass are above the rest, IMO.
Let Me In was great.
Inception was generic Nolan drivel.
