Top 100 Films of the Decade

I took me some time to whip up this list. All 100 films are great. Of course, some fantastic films were left off this list, but oh well. I will do ten films per day. I'm really looking forward to sharing this list with you. This was the best decade for films, in my opinion. Lets get it started!

100. Timecrimes (2007) - Directed by Nacho Vigalondo. Starring Karra Elejalde.
This is a wonderful Spainish film about time travel. An American remake with Tom Cruise is in the making!
99. Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny (2006) - Directed by Liam Lynch. Starring Jack Black.
One of the best musicals of the decade. It's hilarious and the songs rock!
98. Zombieland (2009) - Directed by Ruben Fleischer. Starring Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg.
Eisenberg and Stone are fantastic. Shaun on the Dead has nothing on this film.
97. Sex and Lucia (2001) - Directed by Julio Medem. Starring Paz Vega.
Another Spanish film. A very sexual and twisted puzzle of a film. A wonderful performance by the beautiful Paz Vega.
96. Anger Management (2003) - Directed by Peter Segal. Starring Adam Sandler, Jack Nicholson.
As you will tell as this list goes on, I'm a sucker for a brainless comedy. This film is funny, nothing else. Sometimes that's okay.
95. A Serious Man (2009) - Directed by Ethan Coen, Joel Coen. Starring Michael Stuhlbarg.
A lot of people don't understand this film, and in a way, I'm one of them. It's so complex and thought provoking. Great stuff.
94. Along Came Polly (2004) - Directed by John Hamburg. Starring Ben Stiller.
The reason this film got onto the list is the hilarious performance by Phillip Seymour Hoffman. Let it RAIN!
93. Bronson (2009) - Directed by Nicolas Winding Refn. Starring Tom Hardy.
A tremendous true story, and a wonderful performance by Hardy. A must-see.
92. Little Miss Sunshine (2006) - Directed by Jonathan Dayton, Valerie Faris. Starring Greg Kinnear, Steve Carell.
Great film. Great cast. Great surprise.
91. Atonement (2007) - Directed by Joe Wright. Starring Keira Knightley.
This is a tear jerking war film. A story about lust and the repercussions of our actions.

Top 100 Actors

60. Gael Garcia Bernal One of the best Spanish actors out there. But the kicker is he can speak fluid English. He steals every scene he's in. -The Science of Sleep -Amores Perros -Y tu mamá también 59. Casey Affleck Well, we have our first Affleck. Casey has really come into his own in the past five years. He's terrific in The Assassination of Jesse James, opposite Brad Pitt. -The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford -The Killer Inside Me -Gone Baby Gone 58. Cillian Murphy He has great relationships with directors Christopher Nolan and Danny Boyle. Two of the best directors alive know what Murphy is capable of. -28 Days Later... -Sunshine -Batman Begins 57. Tobey Maguire His defining role was in 2009's chilling film Brothers. The Spider-Man films launched his dying career. Now that those films are long gone, I'm eager to see what he latches onto next. -Brothers -Spider-Man -Spider-Man 2 56. Mel Gibson Gibson hadn't appeared in a film in five years

I was royally bored this afternoon so I did some good old fashioned research, and came up with a list of my favorite films of the 90's. It was very difficult to narrow it down to 25. I tried to get a good balance of comedy, drama, action, horror, etc. films into the list. I would love to hear some feedback. This was a great decade for movies. A lot of these films I grew up watching over and over. I'm not going to get into too many details. I will try and give reasons for some films. Please enjoy! 25. Happy Gilmore (1996) - Directed by Dennis Dugan. Starring Adam Sandler. I don't have to explain myself here. There are one-liners in this film that I still use to this very day. 24. The Firm (1993) - Directed by Sydney Pollack. Starring Tom Cruise. This was a huge decade for Tom Cruise. His films have gotten a little shady lately, but he was a machine in the 90's, and this is a fantastic film. 23. The Truman Show (1998) - Directed by Peter Weir. Starring Jim Carrey. This

Now on DVD

In this segment I will cover the films that I've seen recently but haven't reviewed. All of these films are now available on DVD. There are only a handful of films (worth my attention) from 2010 that I haven't seen. So we can now start to focus on 2011. My top 50 films of 2010 are listed on the left side of the page, as well as every other 2010 film that I reviewed. I will give my thoughts on each film below, so if you're thinking about renting any of these films then please read. It's been a rough run of films in 2011, but some of the 2010 films mentioned below are quite good. Enjoy. 2010: The Next Three Days : While Russell Crowe (Cinderella Man, Gladiator) seems kind of out of his comfort zone here, this film has a good pulse from start to finish. It takes quite a bit before things start to get exciting, but it's worth it. This film isn't anything new, but it's a good popcorn action flick with some decent performances. (B-) Conviction : This was one o
