My mom just called me and asked for help making up her list of her top ten movies of the decade so here's mine. These are in no particular order. Now, I'm no movie critic and these are just movies I enjoyed immensely and they are by no means classic or anything, but they were good in my personal opinion. I've seen Transformers turn up in a bunch of worsts lists and it bugs me because it's like people don't know what to expect when they go to a movie like that.
Moulin Rouge: I adore this movie. I think it's romantic and very entertaining and I can sign most of the songs from memory at this point. It's a great romantic story, it's sweet and I can watch it a million times over.
Bourne Ultimatum: I love each and every movie of this franchise, but this one was by far the best. Amazing fight scenes, great action through the movie and a little hope at the end. It didn't hurt that it had a hot venezuelan actor called Edgar Ramirez.
Dark Knight: When superhero movies became serious and seriously awesome. I have always been a superman girl but this movie is absolutely amazing. It deserved all the hype it got and more.
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen: Like I said, people criticize this movie a lot. I take it for what it is. A film with a bunch of explosions and in that aspect, it rocks. I love Optimus and I love Bumblebee, I love the soundtrack, I love Sam and I love this movie.
The Prestige: This is the definition of an intense, weird but excellent movie. It's crazy and confusing, but I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. The acting of everyone in the cast is absolutely unbelievable.
Futurama: Bender's Game: It was pretty lame that Fox canceled this great show, but the DVD movies were great. This one was my favorite by far since it had both the most interesting story and the most laughs.
Garden State: This is a chessy romantic story, but the way it's told is very real and very sincere. I loved this movie the first time I watched it and I freak out every time it's on tv.
The Italian Job: The cast of this movie is amazing, and I love any movie where there's a plot with lots of planning to see if the pieces fir together in the end. And come on... mini coopers kicking ass, I'm in!
Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl: This is my favorite of the trilogy because it was unexpected, sweet, funny and interesting. Johnny kills as Jack and I will always have a soft spot for Will.
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's (Philosopher's) Stone: I was a fan of the books way before the movies came out and seeing this movie was amazing. It does great justice to the book being very sweet and entertaining. I know some of the other ones have been too, like prisoner of azkaban and half-blood prince, but this one will always be my fave.
