David Fincher was successful in disguising Brad Pitt into the title character, which isn’t easy to do with someone that recognizable. | Juno | 2007 | 84 | 15 | | Letters from Iwo Jima | 2006 | 84 | 15 | | Master and Commander | 2003 | 84 | 15 | | Sixth Sense, The | 1999 | 84 | 15 | | A Beautiful Mind | 2001 | 82 | 19 | | An Education | 2009 | 82 | 19 | | Atonement | 2007 | 82 | 19 | | Aviator | 2004 | 82 | 19 | | Brokeback Mountain | 2005 | 82 | 19 | | Capote | 2005 | 82 | 19 | | Good Night, and Good Luck. | 2005 | 82 | 19 | | Insider, The | 1999 | 82 | 19 | | Lord of the Rings: Return of the King | 2003 | 82 | 19 | | Michael Clayton | 2007 | 82 | 19 | | Million Dollar Baby | 2004 | 82 | 19 | | No Country for Old Men | 2007 | 82 | 19 | | Ray | 2004 | 82 | 19 | | Reader, The | 2008 | 82 | 19 | | Up in the Air | 2009 | 82 | 19 | | Chocolat | 2000 | 81 | 34 | | Frost/Nixon | 2008 | 81 | 34 | | Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring | 2001 | 81 | 34 | | Cider House Rules, The | 1999 | 80 | 37 | | Gangs of New York | 2002 | 80 | 37 | | Hurt Locker, The | 2008 | 80 | 37 | (full review) | In the Bedroom | 2001 | 80 | 37 | | Inglourious Basterds | 2009 | 80 | 37 | | Pianist, The | 2002 | 80 | 37 | | Slumdog Millionaire | 2008 | 80 | 37 | | Traffic | 2000 | 80 | 37 | | Sideways | 2004 | 79 | 45 | | Babel | 2006 | 78 | 46 | | Chicago | 2002 | 78 | 46 | | Lord of the Rings: Two Towers | 2002 | 78 | 46 | | There Will Be Blood | 2007 | 78 | 46 | | Moulin Rouge! | 2001 | 77 | 50 | | Munich | 2005 | 76 | 51 | | Queen, The | 2006 | 76 | 51 | | Lost in Translation | 2003 | 75 | 53 | | Mystic River | 2003 | 75 | 53 | | Hours, The | 2002 | 73 | 55 | | A Serious Man | 2009 | 72 | 56 | | Precious | 2009 | 71 | 57 | | Green Mile, The | 1999 | 70 | 58 | | Gosford Park | 2001 | 68 | 59 | | Crash | 2004 | 44 | 60 | (full review) - Too contrived, and although the story is interestingly complex, the dialogue is sub-par and the characters are way too stereotypical. Huge disappointment. |
