Want to Watch

Counting down my 20 favorite films of 2005.

There are dozens of films I'd happily sit down with in any given year, but the movies in the Want to Want section are most firmly on my radar.

Nice, I think I needed some hand holding on reason to not hate "Match Point" actually it wasn't until I started reading Jason Pettus reviews over at CCLaP that I started to understand the merits of the film. I don't always agree with his reviews but some times he has pretty good insight. As a previous NF user I appreciate his formatting and no nonsense approach.

I'm not a big fan of the following : Match point, Broken flowers, Junebug. I liked those movies but I found a little overrated.

green street hooligans ? sorry, not for me... Maybe because I'm European and I have another experience of soccer fans.

Thank you for smoking is a great picture and until now Jason Reitman best one (much better than Juno).

Ya know, I debated a long time over whether or not I wanted 'hooligans' on that list. I ultimately decided that since I did enjoy it and never see it mentioned on this site, I'd include it.

The real problem is that I haven't seen enough of the good films out there from this year.

I 100% agree that 'thank you for smoking' is definately his best effort.

Don't worry, if you like the movie, you should put it on your list. Don't hesitate 1 minute. One of my favorites of all time is a Lucky Luke cartoon made in the 70's (http://www.listal.com/movie/ballade-des-dalton). Nobody has seen it and the people who has seen it don't think it's great. I don't care. It will remain one of my favorite movies forever.

I have zero love for Broken Flowers, as you may recall. Interesting mix here...lots I haven't seen (including The Descent, thanks for the reminder hehe). Ah & I recently started to watch Me & You & Everyone We Know & quickly realized I've already seen it. I just failed to remember the title was connected with the movie for some reason haha.
