The Best You've Seen This Year
2005 has been a lean year so far to say the least. I gave Hostage a 8/10. So, I guess it's Hostage by default. I've seen over a dozen films this year at the theatre and most have rated a 5/10 or lower. The last movie I saw was Sahara and my brain still hasn't forgiven me for putting it through that idiotic trauma.
This is the second thread you've done this in that I've seen. Stop posting 50 times in a row.

best over all? No Such Thing or Henry Fool. Everything Hal Hartley is now high up on my to-see list this summer.
best new one? not sure, probably Sin City. Interpreter is okay. Need to see more.

Anyway so far this year I really liked Hero & Sin City but that's it so far, I've seen a few really good older movies recently but they don't apply at the moment. Wait a few months and I'll have something better for this thread.........hopefully
I Haven't seen anything yet that stands out as a candidate for one of the best movies of the year, but the two that stood out as above averege are Robots and The Interpreter

This is real easy thins year because this years films have been, for the most part, awful. I'd say Million Dollar Baby, Sin City,and Crash have been the only movies worth a danm so far. Lets pray this summer saves the year.

Sin City - Definitely the best looking movie this year
Batman Begins - Probably my favorite movie so far
Crash - I think it had a bigger impact on me because I live in SoCal

Currently Batman Begins, but that could change by the end of the year.
By the way Strummer521 would you recommend I buy The interpreter?, I keep considering it.

The only films that I’ve been impressed with this year so far are Sin City, Crash, and Batman Begins.
I'm ready for Oscar season.

1. Dead Man's Shoes (Shane Meadows)
Maybe a slight cheat as it was released here at the tail end of last year, but I didn't see it 'til 2005.
2. Sideways (Alexander Payne)
Sorry Annie, but it's still speaking to me. Bigtime.
3. Million Dollar baby (Clint Eastwood)
Simple. Rich. Powerful. Mature.
