TOP TEN MOVIES OF 2007

Believe it or not, I usually have a difficult time creating my top 10 list each year. Typically, after choosing which film is my favorite, I find it to be painstaking effort to categorize the other films on the list. Over the years I’ve come to the conclusion that sometimes on a second viewing, a film that was placed as an Honorable Mention should have been placed in the top 10. I take my movie watching skills and ability very seriously. I have a responsibility to get the list as accurate as possible knowing that it will shape the course of your lives over the next few months.

This year I took extra effort to make sure each film is placed in its rightful position. Be confident that this top 10 list is the list to end all movie lists that encompass 2007. At post time I’ve viewed 101 films that were released in 2007. Like I stated above…I take my job seriously. A short review of most of these films can be found in previous postings. Enjoy.
