| Pulp Fiction | 1994 | 100 | 1 | (full review) | | Star Wars IV: A New Hope | 1977 | 100 | 1 | (full review) | | Shining, The | 1980 | 95 | 3 | (full review) | | AVENGERS, The | 2012 | 90 | 4 | (full review) - The Avengers is pretty much everything you could expect it to be with fun action, great performances from this ensemble cast of characters that we all know and love, very funny screenplay, and just a reminder as to why nerds rule, and will never, ever go away. Best film of the year so far and a totally kick-ass ride from start to finish. Long live Marvel! | | Clerks | 1994 | 90 | 4 | (full review) - Clerks works because of it’s raw but insightful and entertaining dialogue mixed in with very short budget and some very original real-life characters. | | Ferris Beuller's Day Off | 1986 | 90 | 4 | (full review) - Ferris Bueller’s Day Off is a prime example of a film that’s hilarious, fun to watch, but well-written, with plenty of ideas and trends about the times in the 80′s, with a timeless message of life. | | Gladiator | 2000 | 90 | 4 | (full review) - Gladiator may not be as perfect as some may claim, but Ridley Scott’s inspired direction keeps this well-acted, beautifully shot, and tremendously entertaining epic, on its toes by never once diving into cheesy or lame territory. | | Perks of Being a Wallflower, The | 2012 | 90 | 4 | (full review) | | Raising Arizona | 1987 | 90 | 4 | (full review) | | Scott Pilgrim vs The World | 2010 | 90 | 4 | (full review) | | Star Wars V: Empire Strikes Back | 1980 | 90 | 4 | (full review) | | 10 Things I Hate About You | 1999 | 85 | 12 | (full review) - With a real heart at the center of its funky story, Beginners is a well-acted, gentle, funny, and moving portrait about it never being too late to have love in your life, no matter how old or young. | | Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl | 2003 | 85 | 12 | (full review) | | Skyfall | 2012 | 85 | 12 | (full review) | | Sting, The | 1973 | 85 | 12 | (full review) - Though it runs on too long, The Sting is still beautiful to look at as well as being incredibly entertaining, charming, funny, well-acted, and featuring lots and lots of twists and turns to keep any watcher on the edge of their seat. | | Swingers | 1996 | 85 | 12 | (full review) | | Thing, The | 1982 | 85 | 12 | (full review) | | Chronicle | 2012 | 80 | 18 | (full review) - Chronicle isn’t anything ground-breaking or new but the whole found-footage format works in its favor with a smart script, fast-paced vibe, and amazing performances by all three of these young dudes who do have bright futures in Hollywood, but then again, you never know. | | Fargo | 1996 | 80 | 18 | (full review) | | Fatal Attraction | 1987 | 80 | 18 | (full review) | | Nowhere Boy | 2009 | 80 | 18 | (full review) | | Pi | 1998 | 80 | 18 | (full review) | | Ray | 2004 | 80 | 18 | (full review) | | Amazing Spider-Man, The | 2012 | 50 | 24 | (full review) - The Amazing Spider-Man is exactly what you come to expect from a superhero flick: fun, action-packed, wild and crazy set pieces, baddies doing bad things, goodies doing good things, romantic love story, and some little shots of humor to liven everything up. Problem is, this is a reboot of a series that has already had its movies, and were ones that still stay stuck in my mind no matter what. | | Butter | 2011 | 50 | 24 | (full review) - Butter has some delightful moments and features a fine cast, except for Jennifer Garner who is annoying to watch and listen to, but never goes down to those deep deaths of hell that they call satire and decides to play it safe with it’ story and what it is essentially poking jokes at. |
