My top 5 movies of 09. All of these movies were great but the top 2 were almost neck and neck. In the end, 500 Days of Summer is just better for me. Nearly perfect.
Other great ones were Precious, Sherlock Holmes, Where the Wild Things Are and Moon, but I’m only doing my top 5.
Also, keep in mind that I haven’t seen a lot of movies that I think are going to be great such as A Serious Man, The Road, Up in the Air, Crazy Heart, Invictus, and The Fantastic Mr. Fox. See those and tell me how they are if you beat me to it.
