[SchumacherFTW]

[Ezen Baklattan]

Before I make a list, I still need to see...

Margin Call

We Need To Talk About Kevin

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy

The Help

Submarine

Another Earth

Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol

[MovieGuyKyle16]

I got my top 10 List so far:

10) Moneyball

9) Young Adult

8) Bridesmaids

7) Super 8

6) Warrior

5) The Muppets

4) 50/50

3) Horrible Bosses

2) Drive

1) Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

Just missed the top 10: Rango, Cedar Rapids, Source Code, The Adjustment Bureau, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2

[AniNate]

I still have a few movies left I need to see, but as for right now this is my top ten:

1 50/50 - I loved this film when I first saw it, but since my dad recently passed it holds so much more relevance to me now. I don't know if there'll ever be another film that deals with serious illness with such a skillful mix of humor and pathos. A fantastic film.

2 The Muppets - The most purely joyful experience I had this year. It's hilarious, catchy, and I really wish it did better at the box office.

3 Drive - Perhaps it's more a mood piece than anything else, but it's still an original and unforgettable take on an old premise.

4 Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol - A really entertaining film. Brad Bird brings all of his knack for action and humor into the live action world. That Dubai sequence is worth the price of admission alone, but what makes the film so consistently fun is the lively banter among the cast.

5 Rango - Great animation, vibrant voice acting and just all-around entertaining

6 Source Code - A solid sci-fi premise elevated by humanistic undertones, leaving the audience with a lot to ponder

7 Captain America: The First Avenger - Pulpy, cheesy fun. I had a grin on my face the entire time.

8 Fast Five - Ridiculous action sequences and palpable chemistry among the ensemble made this a blast

9 Thor - Terrific visuals and Chris Hemsworth's performance elevate this superhero movie

10 X-Men: First Class - Entertaining superhero film with decent acting, despite ropey effects and inconsistent pacing
