1. The Prestige (2006)

Best work of Christopher Nolan. Movie filled with twists and turns. Cast is well chosen. Bale, Jackman, Caine, Bowie, Johanson and Hall did a briliant job. Ending is a bit weird, but that's how I like it.

2. Donnie Darko (2001)

Possibly one of the most imaginative movies about time travel. The movie itself is quite confusing, and the more it gets to the end, the lesser you know. Cast is well chosen. Profesor Pomeroy is probably only character played by Drew Barrymore that i actually liked. And once again, we have a weird ending.

3. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)

If you ask me, this is Jim's best preformance. Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet make a lovley couple. This could very easy be my favorite romance movie ever, and one of my favorite movies period. Jim, stick to serious roles, you're kicking ass.

4. Audition (1999)

Takashi Miike, Japanise master of weird and gore, once again made a brilliant horor. This movie starts like a nice little drama, but as the plot continues, you realize it's a lot more. Guys, be careful when you chose girls. They just may turn out to be like Asami. You don't want the last words you'll hear to be: "kiri kiri kiri".

5. The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002)

When is comes to LoTR movies, most people say that "Return of the King" is the best. I disagree. Two Towers kicks ass by far.

6. There Will Be Blood (2007)

This movie is pure perfection. I enjoyed every little bit of it. You can't expect anything less from Paul Thomas Anderson, especially not when he teams up with Daniel Day-Lewis.

7. American Psycho (2000)

Christian Bale stuned me in this movie casting socially deranged psychopath. Just remember the scene with business cards. So much envy so well played. Or the scene when he slaughtered Jared Leto with an axe to the sounds of Huey Lewis and the News. I love that scene.
It's hip to be square guys... ;)

8. Inglourious Basterds (2009)

What's a top ten list without Quentin Tarantino. I couldn't decide between Inglourious Basterds and Death Proof, but I went for IB. The WW2 as you've never seen it before.

9. Memento (2000)

This movie is something else. Briliant idea put into the hands of a briliant director. I said i like movies with weird endings. In this movie, everything is weird but the ending. Nice plot twist explaines everything that didn't make sense through the movie. Oh, did i mention that story starts at the end and goes backwards? Well, it does.

10. Pan's Labyrinth (2006)

Another war film in which a little girl runs from everyday horror to her own imaginative world.
I should mention that captain Vidal is one of my favorite movie villains.

Some nice choices here, some of which made my list. You definitely need to see Oldboy, and the only one of your unseens I'd say you should skip is Frailty. I figured out exactly where it was going within the first 30 minutes, and therefore can't recommend it.
