Mike's Year End Review 2008

This is the list of my Top 10 favorite and 3 least favorite movies of 2008. I am making a slight change this year by adding two movies to the list that I loved, but did not get a chance review. As usual you will see that there are some Golden Globe winners and Oscar contenders on the list, but that's not how we pick favorites. Some of these movies will never win an award, but they were just plain fun or flat out entertaining. Some movies aren't on the list, because we just didn't get a chance to see them. We try to get out and see as many movies as we can. The majority are those we have been invited to ahead of time, so that we can get a review out by the premiere of the film, not after. This is not our day job, but our love of movies will keep the reviews coming as often as possible. Now on to the list:

Top 10

1 Curious Case of Benjamin Button
2 Slumdog Millionaire
3 Iron Man
4 Batman:The Dark Knight
5 The Bank Job
6 Get Smart
7 Forgetting Sarah Marshall
8 Vantage Point
9 Cadillac Records
10 Spiderwick Chronicles

Least Favorite:

1 Smart People
2 You Don't Mess with the Zohan
3 Untraceable
