2011 Film List

Didn't make it to 100! damn!
Better luck in 2012

1) Where the Wild Things are 8/10 (so many childhood memories!)
2) Zombieland 8/10 (same level as Shaun of the dead!)
3) Away we go 8.5/10 (a very sweet and funny movie, love John Krasinski!)
4) Australia 6.5/10 (Hugh Jackman is hot, end of story)
5) Love and Other Drugs 7.5/10 (got a lot more than I anticipated! thought it was just a rom com but it has a bit more meat in it)
6) The Spy Next Door 7/10 (very typical Jackie Chan movie, has a few good kicks to it)
7) The Princess and the Frog 7/10 (it's classic Disney on the big screen again!)
8) Ghost Town* 7.5/10 (didn't expect too much from it but it's a very pleasant surprise! one of my fav rom coms if you can even call it a comedy)
9) The Proposal* 8.5/10 (one of my fav rom com!! I dunno what's so special about it but I just love it)
10) Mona Lisa Smile 7/10 (enjoyable weekend at home with snacks movie)
11) Inglorious Basterds 8.5/10 (glad I watched the HBO version where all the blood and gore was cut out... I would've closed my eyes during those scenes anyway... excellent film! very Quentin film)
12) You Again 6/10 (a stay at home/download it from the internet kind of film...)
13) Easy A 7/10 (I think I expected way too much from it because of all the positive reviews! it was alright... or maybe because I was all drugged up from gravol and couldn't concentrate...)
14) Life as we know it 5.5/10 (wow, another reason why I'm not a Katherine Heigl fan)
15) My Sister's Keeper 8/10 (better than the book!)
16) No Strings Attached 7.5/10 (better than expected! quite a few awwww and warm fuzzy moments!)
17) An Education* 8.5/10 (Carey Mulligan, need I say more?)
18) It's Complicated 7/10 (another laid-back, Sunday night HBO kind of movie)
19) When in Rome 5.5/10 (even the hot Josh Duhamel and the cute Kristen Bell can't save this one)
20) Black Swan 8.5/10 (Natalie deserved her Oscar!)
21) The Time Traveler's Wife 8/10 (loved the book, the movie was great too... so sad...)

23) Never Let Me Go 7.5/10 (very sad... but the book was better)
24) The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus* 8/10 (I finally understood the movie after watching it again... very beautiful/weird/deep movie)
25) Source Code 8/10 (Didn't think about going to see the film until I found out the director is Duncan Jones, the director of "Moon", which was AMAZING. Turns out it was a good choice! very fast paced action thriller with a twist ending)
26) Just Go With It 8/10 (what a pleasant surprise!! Adam Sandler back in Happy Madison style!!)
27) Invictus 7.5/10 (I've always enjoyed Clint Eastwood's films, and plus I love rugby!!! Even though the All Blacks lost in the end still kinda sucked)
28) Hannah 7/10 (it's a good action thriller, but there was a stu
pid couple sitting beside me talking out loud the whole time, which kinda killed the mood...)
29) Water for Ele
phants 8.5/10 (love the book, love the movie!)
30) U
p in the Air 8.5/10 (good script, good actors, good move! Anna Kendrick is a pleasant surprise considering she does absolutely nothing in Twilight... waste of her talent)
31) Fast Five 8/10 (so much better than expected! action packed with hot hot guys!!! a tad too slow in the middle though but still... hot hot guys!)
32) Something Borrowed 8/10 (book was great, movie was a good adaptation as well... and again, I love John Krasinski!! super funny and adorable in this movie!)
33) The Invention of Lying 7.5/10 (funny and quite charming, very Ricky Gervais kind of humour which I enjoy!)
34) Thor 7/10 (worst of all the Marvel films... not a lot of character development, action was alright...)
35) Kung Fu Panda II 8.5/10 (excellent sequel! so funny and touching too)
36) X-Men: First Class 8.5/10 (excellent prequel/reboot!! superb acting and storyline)
37) 翻滾吧! 阿信 8.5/10 (好看! 又感動又好笑! 彭于晏電影結束後意外現身也整個大加分啦)
38) 那些年,我們一起追的女孩 7.5/10 (很青春可愛的電影,中間有點拖但不錯啦)
39) Horrible Bosses 8/10 (super funny!)
40) One Day 8/10 (overall a good film but Anne Hathaway's failed British accent was really distracting...)
41) Friends With Benefits 8/10 (better than No Strings Attached, pretty funny and had some very awwww parts. Justin should still stick with singing or SNL)
42) 賽德克巴萊:太陽旗 8/10 (電影tempo有點怪...但還是很好看很感人.國片能拍成這種水準真不錯)
43) The Pacifier 6/10 (.... there was nothing else to watch on tv........)
44) Apollo 13 8/10 (how did they make the people float around!!!)
45) Speed * 8/10 (still good after all these years!)
46) The Expendables 7/10 (
1)看完後感覺變man了 2)Stallone變好老看他跑步都覺得好累 3)Jason Statham好帥 4)片中大任務竟然是為了一個女人?!說好的恐怖分子呢?蘇俄間諜呢?南美毒梟呢?
47) The Social Network* 8.5/10 (even better the 2nd time round coz I didn't get confused by the various lawsuits)
48) The Lion King 3D 8.5/10 (SO GOOD!!! the 3D effect was excellent and I almost forgot how awesome classic Disney is!)
49) What's Your Number 7/10 (cliche and predictable, but still cute and funny)
50) 50/50 8/10 (really touching, and depicts the emotions of a cancer patient and those around him very well)
51) Real Steel 8/10 (WOW! the trailer looked really bad, I'm glad everyone kept telling me how good it is, otherwise I would've missed a great movie!)
52) Halloween H2O 6/10 (not that scary for a scary movie...)
53) Jet Pilot 6/10 (it's like gone with the wind meets 007, but not as exciting...)
54) Dragonfly 6/10 (I keep having to watch movies I don't like for work...)
55) That's What I Am 8/10 (FINALLY a good movie for work! touching and inspirational story)
56) United 7.5/10 (no it's not about 9/11, it's about a rising soccer team in England that lost half its team due to a plane crash... real story, very sad)
57) Flowers 7.5/10 (Japanese movie, pretty good! a story of women through 3 generations)
58) Love Scenario 7/10 (Another Japanese movie, and a very typical Jap love story)
59) The Ides of March 8.5/10 (I am never going to have any kind of relationships with anything or anyone political...)
60) Captain America 8/10 (lots of action, Chris Evans has big muscles, with a touch a humor, just what a Marvel movie should be like)
61) Happythankyoumoreplease 8/10 (a nice little indie film by "Ted", nice debut)
62) The Help 8.5/10 (obviously the book has more details, but the film was very well made, have tissues ready!)
63) Love Actually * 8/10 (still the best star ensemble kind of movie, perfect for Xmas)
64) Limitless 7/10 (a bit different than expected, not bad but not as good as I thought)
65) The King's Speech 8.5/10 (beautiful story of a beautiful friendship)
66) Midnight in Paris 7.5/10 (I had no idea what the film was about before watching it, what a pleasant surprise! Very cute film with lovely music and gorgeous bits of Paris)
