What's your top 5 films of the year?

Mine are:

1) Finding Neverland - a beautiful movie and one which took my imagination to a whole new level as it reverted me back to my childhood years......

2) Collateral - Clever, original and brilliantly acted...

3) Saw - Low budget but even though I guessed the ending I was still in awe at the simplicity of the set and cleverness of the script.....

4) Beyond the Sea - Kevin Spaceys 'Baby' which makes you want to sing and dance in the street....just fantastic!

5) Phantom of the Opera - Brings the classic to the masses and does it with style, class and added wow!

This has been a good year for cinema.......

dunno if this counts but lord of the rings - return of the king. any orlando fest is good!! cant think of what other films i saw this year!

Hate to repeat myself but my film of the year has to be, without a doubt, Lost in Translation. So clever and captivating to make this film on the theme of being displaced/lost.

I didn't watch too many films this year, so I'm probably missing out some rally good ones. Bot of the ones that I DID see in 2004:

1. Lord of the Rings

2. Collateral

3. Van Helsing

4. Errr........

Ummm - thats it! I saw a few more than that, but as I can't remember them, I reckon thy mustn't have been much cop.

Don't worry about repeating yourself...you're quite right 'Lost in Translation' is a fantastic movie...It didn't make my top 5 simply because at times I did feel it dragged a bit but when it didn't it was amazing! If that makes any sense! :huh:

Karenh....you really didn't get out much this year did you :laugh:

Kooks....LOTR - ROTK - was a Viggo lust fest but nothing more!
