My Top Ten Movies of 2010

Sorry i know it has been a long time since I last posted a blog. I have been dealing with computer issues. Still is by the way. I am here today to post my top ten movies list. They are in order of my favorites. Post your comments below if you have a favorite.

1. Black Swan - This movie is beyond words to describe the acheivement Darren Aronofsky's film. He did the impossible: making me actual enjoy ballet. Natalie Portman gave an incredible performance in this psychological thriller. If Natalie Portman don't get an Oscar for this film, it will be the biggest mistake the Academy will make. The movie is about this ballet dancer who is trying to be perfect and dealing with a lot of pressure from the ballet director, a new ballet dancer, and her mother. It is Darren Aronofsky's masterpiece.

2. Inception - This movie would have been number one but i seen Black Swan. It would have stay but that would mean a tie. Inception and Black Swan are amazing movies but everything about Black Swan was great. Let be honest with ourselves, "Inception" were more of a showcase for Christopher Nolan. The movie was great visually and story, but the acting wasn't the best. It was good but not the best I seen the actors. Inception is a movie of ideas and dreams.  It was Christopher Nolan's masterpiece. It was the best film of the summer. There is no more I can say that hasn't been say already.

3. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows pt. 1 - this was a movie event of  the year. I have been waiting for the end for a decade. the main characters were great. It was epic and emotional. You felt the journey Harry is going. It was the best Harry Potter movie so far. Can't wait for the part two.
4. Kick Ass - It is just a kick ass movie. it was funny, action pack and just a fun movie.

5. The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo - This was a great movie that been getting a lot of praise for the lead actress performance which was great. The movie itself was great. The pacing was great. Everthing about the movie was just amazing. It sucks that it is getting remade already.

6. The Kids Are All Right - This was a good movie. The screenplay was great and Annette Bening's performance was great. I thought that she played her character realistically. I thought overall the movie was realistic toward gay couples. it wasn't over the top like most movies that show a gay marriage. Gays are normal people. They should be portray that way.

7. Shutter Island - i wish this movie was more higher up on my list but it really wasn't that great. It looks great  and the performances was great. The fact remains is that the story wasn't that great. Martin Scorsese I feel did the best he can with the story. I have personally knew the ending midway through the movie and the book.

8.Scott Pilgrim vs. The World - It is one of those movies that you either loved or hated. I loved it. i thought it was musical with battles instead of songs. It was amazing. It was a story about love and becoming a better person. That is what i took from the movie.


 9. Winter's Bone - Another good movie but it didn't quite had me. Like Shutter Island, everything was great except the story. it had too many plot holes. It was a new take on the film noir genre set in a rural cummunity. The performance was great and the direction was good but story was just average.

10.  Predators- it was a fun movie. It didn't have a concrete plot but it was fun. It is the closest sequel that came close to the feeling the original. Hopefully the next round is fully realized.

There goes my list. Hate it or love. It is my opinion. I am guessing you are wondering why "Toy Story 3" is not on here. It wasn't as good as i hope for or at least not as hype up as  it was. I thought the ending was good but you knew it was coming a long time ago. I was disappointed with the movie. this overall year was disppointing to me. i am hoping for better movies in 2011.
