| Hanna | 2011 | 95 | 1 | (full review) |
| In Bruges | 2008 | 95 | 1 | - A violent comedy that, in the end, is surprisingly touching. |
| Anna Karenina | 2012 | 90 | 3 | (full review) - Needless to say, the extreme stylization is not for everyone. That is actually one of the reasons that I love this version of Anna Karenina so much. |
| Burn After Reading | 2008 | 90 | 3 | (full review) - A wonderfully satiric look at greed, lust, espionage, paranoia, and stupidity. |
| Somewhere | 2010 | 90 | 3 | (full review) - An excellent and often misunderstood film |
| Place Beyond the Pines, The | 2013 | 85 | 6 | (full review) |
| 21 Grams | 2003 | 80 | 7 | (full review) - Devastating film |
| Atonement | 2007 | 80 | 7 | (full review) - Good film about how a mistake ruins three lives. |
| The Theory of Everything | 2014 | 75 | 9 | (full review) - A good film but the true story is far more complex and challenging. |
| Eastern Promises | 2007 | 70 | 10 | - Sometimes fascinating, sometimes frustrating look at the Russian mafia. |
| The Boxtrolls | 2014 | 70 | 10 | (full review) - A film that proves even the ugliest animated monsters deserve happiness. |
| Kids Are All Right, The | 2010 | 60 | 12 | (full review) - Glib and overrated. |
| Fifty Shades of Grey | 2015 | 40 | 13 | (full review) - Not good but not as bad as it could have been. |
| Hyde Park On Hudson | 2012 | 30 | 14 | (full review) - Slow and disappointing. What a way to waste Bill Murray! |
| American, The | 2010 | 20 | 15 | (full review) - I am sure some will embrace this film but for me, I will pass. |
