2008 Summary by Joe

I have seriously neglected this blog, as I have been informed by some people who actually read it. With the Great Depression II coming down in 2008 (tongue in cheek), I stopped paying $10 to see films in theatres, wating instead to see them when they are released on DVD. Thus, I still don't have a "2008 Top List." However, the following are movies I have seen from 2008 and how I scored them on a 1-5 scale beginning with the highest scores:

Slumdog Millionaire, 4.5; The Dark Knight, 4.5; The Wrestler, 4.5; Gran Torino, 4.5; Frost/Nixon, 4.5; Waltz with Bashir, 4.5; Rachel Getting Married, 4; Frozen River, 4; Man on Wire, 4; Burn After Reading, 4; The Wackness, 4; Forgetting Sarah Marshall, 4; In Bruges, 4; Milk, 4; Changeling, 4; Pineapple Express, 4; Revolutionary Road, 4; The Visitor, 4; The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, 4; Doubt, 4; Role Models, 4; Elegy, 3.5; Twilight, 3.5; Vicky Cristina Barcelona, 3.5; American Teen, 3.5; Iron Man, 3.5; Bigger, Stronger, Faster, 3.5; Taken, 3.5; Synecdoche, 3.5; Twilight, 3.5; Crossing Over, 3; The Code, 3; Sex Drive, 3; Wanted, 3; Leatherheads, 3; Redbelt, 3; Hamlet 2, 2.5; Eagle Eye, 2; Tropic Thunder, 2; The Bank Job, 2; Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, 1.5.
