sunshine/rescue dawn

i was never a huge danny boyle fan, but sunshine is coupled with werner herzog's rescue dawn as best film of the year. easy. i was never more tense or moved by any other films. herzog can do no wrong in my book. every single one of his films have moved me beyond words with their style and honesty, as well as their brutality. i can't wait to see more of his films...after seeing 8 of them, i still am jonesing for more. sunshine had this effect on me in just the same way. while i agree that the end seems far-fetched, i can't forget what came before it, and it is easily forgiven; not so much for the fact that it is slightly ridiculous, but because it makes the movie just a little less fun. both films will stay with me for the rest of my life. and that says a lot.

Best Film?

Sunshine, for sure. Time will see this film next to 2001 and Solaris as a quintessential sci-fi film.

Away from Her

I think I'd have to say "Away from Her" is my best of the year so far. Certainly the most powerful experience I've had in the theater this year, or possibly any year ever. I have to thank AdamAndSam, by the way, for putting that one on my radar. Never would have thought to see it otherwise; probably never would have even heard of it.

Poll

I just hate that here in Australia, we've still not had the opportunity to see half of these great films you Northerners talk about! :D

Pirates

I had to vote for Pirates because nobody else would, and the real best movie of the year so far isn't on the list (Sunshine).

Best film of the year

Zodiac as best, then Sunshine and The Wind that Shakes the Barley close behind.

SuperBad

The only film on the list I definitely wouldn't have on there is Pirates 3, but a case can be made for the rest. I just saw SuperBad last night, and I think once it releases wide it's going to jump to the top of some people's lists. It's funnier than Knocked Up, sweet when necessary, and downright brilliant at times.

best of 07 (so far)

Have to agree with Sunshine. Just saw it and it completely blew me away. Boyle can't miss. 300 is my only 10/10 movie on this list, also loved Once and Namesake.

MOvie of '07... so far

300 comes close for sheer joie de vivre (I did a Classics degree so it resonates quite personally).

But SUNSHINE is my favourite by miles so far. We got it in the UK back in April. Fully loaded DVD is out within the month :-)

I will cure you of your wickedness...

Ratatouille comes close, but so far the best movie I've seen all year has to be Black Snake Moan. I think Samuel L. Jackson & Christina Ricci's performances alone make it worthy, and it's the only movie that I think will be good enough to still be on my top 10 list at the end of the year.
