Inception (2010)
Notes: I know, it is not a very original choice but what can I do ? It just rocks!!! This movie is the proof that a movie can be a huge blockbuster and entertaining and thoughtful at the same time. A great achievement.

Grand Jury prize
3554
7.3
7.8
Notes: For those who don't know, in a festival, the Grand Jury prize honors a great movie which just missed the biggest prize. I expected The Social Network to be good but I didn't expect it to be that great. It's funny to think that when we first heard that Fincher was making a movie about Facebook, many thought it would be a stinker. Guess who was wrong...

Shutter Island (2010)
Notes: This entry is to honor Leonardo DiCaprio for both Shutter Island and Inception. Arguably, his best year with 2 great perfomances. Well done, Leo !

Tangled (2010)
Notes: Rapunzel almost got this award but this entry is actually for Carice van Houten in "De gelukkige huisvrouw" (see entry 6). A very good performance.

Toy Story 3 (2010)
Notes: Honestly, I liked Toy Story 3 but I don't think it was as good as the first 2 Toy Story or Wall-E or UP . Even though, it managed to be the best animated picture of the year. Well done!

De gelukkige huisvrouw (2010)
Notes: I don't call this section "Best Foreign movie" because being French/Dutch, all the English-speaking movies are actually "Foreign" to me! Anyway, "De gelukkige huisvrouw" was a pretty good movie and a big commercial success in Holland.

Kick-Ass (2010)
Notes: Kick-Ass is so much fun. Just the title cracks me up! I don't think it is a masterpiece but it still is loads of fun.

Notes: I really like Oliver Stone and I think he did a pretty good job with this sequel. Even if it is not flawless, the subject remains fascinating.

Biggest disappointment
1845
6.3
6.4
Notes: I wasn't expecting a masterpiece but after reading Roger Ebert's review (a 4 star review), I was expecting something very good. It wasn't... A completely unbelievable story with some average action scenes. I was expecting something better from Angelina Jolie and Philip Noyce. Too bad...

Worst Picture of the Year
1235
4.1
4
Notes: Honestly, it was not as bad as I expected. It was even better than "Lady in the water". Even though, it was still pretty bad and it is definitely the worst movie I have seen this year.
