From what I've seen so far this year:

I recommend:

1. Side Effects - Gorgeously directed and very entertaining!
2. Before Midnight - Probably the most profound and most intense film of the trilogy.
3. The Way Way Back - It's sweet, it's dramatic (a few times perhaps a little over the top for my tastes), it's sometimes funny and the acting performances are brilliant.
4. Rush - There's fun, there's drama, there's a lot of racing and it all works out pretty well.
5. The Great Gatsby - It's a good film, but there was a certain 'chemistry' lacking, in my opinion. It all looks great, though.
6. The Croods - I Love its message and it has a few wonderful moments.
7. Despicable Me 2 - It's almost as good as its predecessor, because it compensates its weaker storyline with more funny/cute/entertaining scenes.
8. This Is the End - I didn't think it was very funny, but it's entertaining and in some way even refreshing.

I don't recommend:

9. Monsters University - It has a few good moments, but it fails to recapture the magic of the first movie.
10. Gangster Squad - An uninspired gangster film without any heart or soul.
11. Only God Forgives - Visually interesting, but overall it's the biggest disappointment of the year so far for me personally.
12. The Hangover Part III - Watchable crap.
13. Movie 43 - Barely watchable crap.

From what I've seen so far this year:

I recommend:

1. Gravity - Amazing visuals and 3D effects, two great acting performances and a wonderful message make this the best film of 2013 so far for me.
2. Side Effects - Gorgeously directed and very entertaining!
3. Before Midnight - Probably the most profound and most intense film of the trilogy.
4. The Way Way Back - It's sweet, it's dramatic (a few times perhaps a little over the top for my tastes), it's sometimes funny and the acting performances are brilliant.
5. Rush - There's fun, there's drama, there's a lot of racing and it all works out pretty well.
6. The Great Gatsby - It's a good film, but there was a certain 'chemistry' lacking, in my opinion. It all looks great, though.
7. The Croods - I Love its message and it has a few wonderful moments.
8. Despicable Me 2 - It's almost as good as its predecessor, because it compensates its weaker storyline with more funny/cute/entertaining scenes.
9. This Is the End - I didn't think it was very funny, but it's entertaining and in some way even refreshing.

I don't recommend:

10. Monsters University - It has a few good moments, but it fails to recapture the magic of the first movie.
11. Gangster Squad - An uninspired gangster film without any heart or soul.
12. Only God Forgives - Visually interesting, but overall it's the biggest disappointment of the year so far for me personally.
13. The Hangover Part III - Watchable crap.
14. Movie 43 - Barely watchable crap.
