Top 15 Film of 2012 (So Far)

I couldn't believe how much I loved it. It really captures the essence of being a teenager with problems and a feeling of social inadequacy. What makes it better than any other coming-of-age film is in my opinion, controversially, the ending.

Loved In Bruges and this wasn't as good, however it was funnier. So many quotable scenes and memorable too. An all together, extremely well acted, well written film with fun written all over it. I look forward to McDonagh's next venture.

I am a fan of MacFarlane, including the recent episodes of Family Guy, which people seem to hate. Everything he does is hilarious to me and Ted is defiantly no exception. Gets funnier on repeat viewings and provides many, many laughs. A tremendously, often unpredictably, funny film.

I quite enjoy Andrew Dominik's films - Chopper, The Assassination of Jesse James and this. - I felt the film was intellectual, not quite as intellectual as people claim it to be however. But the film felt great, contained a great performance from Pitt, as always, and the closing scene was something to remember. Very much enjoyed it.

A tremendously acted little gem which was overlooked upon its release. The film deals with some great and broad themes, but all from two children's perspectives, which was well incorporated. I have yet to see any of Anderson's other works, but if this is anything to go by I am sure to enjoy them.

Not as great as I had hoped, but it did garner great performances from everyone involved and held my interest throughout. Plus there was some good scenes. It just needed a little more work and it could've been something special. It was bordering on it, then drifted away, returned, then drifted away again. However, it is enjoyable.

I think this film is slightly overrated but it is good. I shall not praise any of the acting, except for John Goodman and Alan Arkin who were great, as none of them stood out and Affleck didn't feel right for that part. The last 20 minutes or so I also didn't like, it was way too dramatized and didn't feel like it fit in the film, it lost some of its intelligence.

Really well done. Fantastically acted and the two hours fly by. The really great thing about it is it's originality. Everything feels so fresh. The directing, and cinematography in particular, are great. And the 3D is not used as a gimmick, but as it should, it is used to it's full potential and makes the film better, not worse. The same with the CGI. Both of which I don't normally like. A thoroughly enjoyable film, with intelligent humor.

Juan Antonio Bayona knows how to make a good film. He knows how direct actors, he knows what works and what doesn't. And above all else, he knows how to operate a camera. This was one fine film, with great performances and gripping scenes. He is most defiantly a director to watch.

Maybe I'm a little biased as I do enjoy most of Stone's films, but you have to admit that this film does show promise and it does return Stone back to his former greatness of gritty, raw films made for a select audience. Not everyone is going to like it, and not everyone isn't going to like it. Whatever you may say, it is quite enjoyable, and Stone is back.

One of the best buddy-cop films for a long time and boasts great performances from its leads. Instantly recognizable as David Ayer film which is a compliment. I enjoyed it. Sustained my interest, made me laugh, and want them to triumph. Fell apart at the last 20 minutes or so though, which is too bad because it was on track to being the best film of this year.

I did enjoy this film. It wasn't the best film ever but was far from the worst. Recaptured what made the first one great and in my opinion was a little bit better than the first. I was never a HUGE fan of the Alien series which explains why this isn't higher. Looks great and features a great Michael Fassbender performance. Enjoyable.

Pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed the film's first act, contained some good scenes, dialog and acting. The same continued onto the second act, by the third act and for the duration of the third act though I was a little upset as everything went downhill, dragged out and faltered. However, is good.

Nobody asked for this remake so I expected it to just be a moneymaking scheme with no effort or thought put into it. I was wrong, way wrong. The film was actually good. Better than the originals and more true to the comic book. It also has the best Stan Lee cameo out of them all.

I don't normally like horror films. The classics and then one that comes around every so often which is great. Saw was one, and so is this. The generic formulaic modern horror film is turned on its head with a rather superbly unrealistic situation. Its commentary on modern horror is very well thought out. I liked it.

HONORABLE MENTION: Not including it as it is a documentary. But it is highly entertaining and for its long run time it sustains my interest. Depicts a great picture of a great man.
