So it seems a good enough place to take stock of what’s wowed me thusfar. Let it be noted though that Sightseers, Reality, Like Someone in Love are all films that I put on my Top 20 Of 2012, and I’m therefore making disqualified for 2013 contention. Also I’ve sadly yet to see Stoker, Spring Breakers and The Bling Ring (as well as a good other films thusfar).
So here’s my list so far:
-
Man of Steel
-
The Place Beyond the Pines
-
Upstream Color
-
Pieta
-
Side Effects
-
Monster’s University
-
Trance
-
The Great Gatsby
-
The Purge
-
Star Trek Into Darkness
Interesting selection at number 1!
FWIW:
BEFORE MIDNIGHT
STORIES WE TELL
STOKER
UPSTREAM COLOR
BLANCANIEVES
MUD
GINGER & ROSA
WARM BODIES
SIDE EFFECTS
SPRING BREAKERS
So I've seen 4 of your Top Ten (to show how skewed mine is right now)….
Disagree so hard with Blancanieves and Warm Bodies… so mediocre
I'll spot you WARM BODIES. Shrugging your shoulders at BLANCANIEVES tells me you are on some serious drugs.
Here's my list: http://letterboxd.com/thevoid99/list/best-of-2013…
It's only based on actual 2013 releases from festivals and such.
Is the Pussy Riot documentary that good?
I think it is. Especially as it relates to what these women are fighting against where it relates to Vladimir Putin and how he tries to put church and state in the same room.
