Soooo, and now one of the flops and highlights. Many films met my expectations (Iron Man 2, Prince of Persia, Inception, Knight and Day, The Expendables, The Sorcerer's Apprentice, Mad About You, Salt, RED, The Social Network, Machete, The Town, buried), some were better than expected (Sherlock Holmes, Up in the air, Shutter Iceland, Green Zone), some worse (Alice in Wonderland, Clash of the Titans, Robin Hood, Men Who Stare at Goats).

Some were really underground and were miles below my expectations:

Giulia disappearance:
boring and more than trivial.

damnation:
The books themselves may be good, and the first part was very well worth seeing, but after the crappy sequel I even ditch the final last part.

All About Steve: Sandra Bullock must have lost
'a bet, otherwise I can not explain their involvement in this pickle.

Wolfman: Absolute 15.8
werewolf strips in the Cast would have to be more of it.

Repo Men:
In the 80s he could impress maybe 2-3 people, 30 years later but no more.

Greg's diary:
ever Definitely among the top 10 of the horrific Sneaks, just scrap, so why is it such films to the movies, I still do not understand.

Resident Evil 4: Did the first 3 parts
actually quite entertaining and surprisingly better than any continuation of the respective predecessor, but part 4 was nothing, because the 3D effects could also save anything.

Fair Game:
When you hear that a drama which is based on a true story, with Sean Penn and Naomi Watts is occupied, the filmmakers heart rejoices. Well, the anticipation was then really the only positive aspect I could not tie the film.

letters to Julia:
I have really nothing against so-called "women's movies", but was not easy. If even the girls think of is an exaggeration, but says it all ...

* drum roll * The Top 3! ( Adam I leave time on the sidelines, because I have the seen for the first time in 2009)

Friendship: can work
The right combination of drama and comedy well, is not new (prime example Tragigkomödie Forrest Gump), funny Road Trip Movies (Hangover, are Born to be wild, date) is also like a conveyor belt, and forever, from comedies with DDR background (Good Bye, Lenin, Kleinruppin, Sun Alley), we need to talk not only that there are plenty, too. Well, somehow manages to Friendship, to integrate all these genres so, so that is a really good film developed.

The Ghost Writer:
Some find it boring, some super-exciting. I belong to the second category:). Despite a running time of over 2 hours of my opinion, consistently engrossing thriller. Pierce Brosnan shows he is more than Remington Steele and James Bond, Ewan McGregor is doing well and lived Polanski proves that he is still a terrific Regisseur ist.

Und zu guter Letzt: Scott Pilgrim! Zwar ist der bei uns erst Monate nach dem US-Start angelaufen und ich war nicht mal im Kino (DVD Importe, I like), aber der muss einfach erwähnt werden. Wer als Kurzer einen NES oder SNES gehabt hat, der wird den Streifen lieben. Was für Comicverfilmungen die Kinoumsetzungen von "ernsthaften" Graphic Novels Filme wie Sin City oder Watchmen waren, ist in Sachen "just for fun" Comics Scott Pilgrim. Ich will den Streifen jetzt gar nicht groß beschreiben (könnte ich auch gar nicht, er hat einfach dieses schrille 8-bit Flair), der Werbeslogan "Epic of epic epicness" ist einfach zutreffend;). Allerdings kann ich mir leider gut vorstellen, dass manchen the intellectual approach might be missing ... (only fun, but even half-serious, story and look are definitely not for everyone, but I found it cool:))

No Hammer films, but still worth mentioning as to overlook a shame to just to be included:

be too hot to be true:
Too many laughs to be fobbed off as an average comedy.

In their eyes:
Who would have thought that a English crime can be as good. Rightly Oscar winner.

Same Same But Different:
No plan found that just fine.

The coming days:
pity that the film was canceled after only one week. The bad Resonance is beyond me.

So that it was now but finally, come the cinema in 2011, can perhaps even with movies, in which Thomas participates Roon;).
(Just the movie starts in the first quarter can be seen with The Green Hornet, Black Swan, 127 Hours, Sucker Punch and True Grit, after all, the new film by Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind are), Darren Aronofsky ( Requiem for a Dream, The Wrestler), Danny Boyle (Slumdog Millionaire, Trainspotting), Zack Snyder Watchmen (, 300) and the Coen brothers (No Country for Old Men, The Big Lebowski). Sometimes it apart that to March more movies like Tucker & Dale vs. Evil, The King's Speech, 72 hours, Tron: start Legacy and Brothers ...)
