Bitchin' Film Reviews

For being a year where it seemed like nothing outstanding hit theatres, I really had a hard time narrowing down the list of the most memorable films.  In some of the lists before, I hated films so badly, they were listed because of the visceral reaction I have every time I pass them in Blockbuster.

This list of the most memorable films of 2008 was much easier to create, since I posted it here a year ago. It seems that ’08 was a very good year for film. Much better than 2009. I saw over a hundred movies in theatres that year, so perhaps it wasn’t the film that was [...]

My favorite blog posts are usually lists.  Not those that I write (I really don’t compile lists), but the lists that you all make.  And I do like the idea of reviewing the past decade and making a top ten of each year.  So I’ve decided to do it. I will have to do it [...]
