Best Of 2008

Yes we pointed out yesterday that there have been a million best-of 2008 lists but we decided it couldn't hurt to add another one. We could have pooled together and come up with a collective list but what do you take us for, journalists or something? Instead we give one view, one opinion on the Top 10 films that one person saw, that were released in this country in 2008. That may sound like an attempt to deflect criticism but be under no illusions,iIt may be just one opinion, but it just so happens to be the right one.

Drumroll please. The Top 5 is:

1. No Country For Old Men
2. There Will Be Blood
3. Man On Wire
4. Waltz With Bashir
5. The Diving Bell & The Butterfly

I don't see any point in separating the next 5.

- In Bruges
- Taxi To The Dark Side
- The Dark Knight
- Wall E
- Hunger
