20-11

Ok this is hard...been tweaking the list since a week ago & I still can't get it down to 10! so u know what...here's 20! go ahead whine..I dare ya.

20.Inception

Yeaaaaaaaah...I didn't love it as much as most of you people do...but it is good. I gotta admit that...My architect friend (nak sebut gak) loves this movie and I can see why...visually it's really really stunning..was in awe...
I like the first half of the movie...and then it got slightly annoying to me with all it's bloody levels and such...and then the ending.I felt cheated..it is interesting yes...but I really felt cheated...I actually groaned in the cinema when the screen fades to black.

Defining moment : Of kos it's that anti-gravity scene..yo! much?


19.Book of Eli

The first movie I really enjoyed in 2010..it started out quite slow...but halfway (well 1/3 maybe) it got better. you know what I really enjoy post apocalyptic movie..and this one is one of the finer ones...later I'll be watching Vanishing @ 7th Street..on paper it sounded good..hoping the best..eh ok back to Eli..acting great..Mila Kunis cute!..action hot enuff...and the ending..yummers!..love.hence #19!

Defining Moment : here's a spoiler...Eli's blind!...woooaaaaaaaaah!


18.The crazies

Birthday movie..yea!...
But honestly this is a great flick..it's quite dark..never expected that. And the leads rule!..and after this flick I hunt down the original Crazies and what the hell...so let me just say that the remake is far superior than that what in the world Crazies original.

Defining Moment : The poster got it right..the pitchfork scene..yum!


17.The horde

A french flick bout a group of terrorist and the police? trapped in a building (it's always like that huh) while a horde of zombies banging the doors wanting to come in. It's ur typical zombie flick but two things stood out for me...1.all the characters are a-holes ...and there's a zombie fight scene that got me all giddy. Watch this..its pretty fun

Defining moment : Hand boxing fight with two zombies....rrrrrwaaargh now this is cool!

16.Unstoppable

Simple movie...a train that can't stop...but I love it..somehow I find this movie intense...you know what's gonna happen...u can predict it like 30 minutes in..but I'm still at the edge of my seat. The style also is a bit rough in which works fine with me...plus Chris Pine is the man!

Defining moment : any scene with the train nearly hitting a car,truck, other train etc (my highlight is the train with kids in it..though it's obvious it won't get hit...I was a wee bit worried that it actually might)

15.Shutter Island

I actually found the movie pretty lame at first...but after second viewing it ain't really that bad..in fact it's good. I was probably sleepy during my first viewing..so what's to like...well good casting is first..u have Leo, Michelle Williams and Mark Ruffalo...all mucho great actors..the the mind fuck we get while watching this movie..I honestly felt sorry for Leo's character to a point where I wanted to scream "leave him alone already..!"...hmm what else..the twist I actually predicted...but still the ending has some is he or isn't he question left hanging..in which I LOVE!...so there u have it..good movie..PASS!

Defining moment : The ambiguous ending..is he aware..or pretending??


14.Monster

I thought I was watching something in the lines of Cloverfield..(in which I love)...but surprisingly it's entirely something else..yeah you get monsters turning up here and there (cool looking monsters I might add)we also have a pretty interesting story + mucho nice settings..It's about two Americans heading their way back to Mexico , but things went awry went their passports were stolen..hence the adventure into Monster territory (at this point monsters have already landed and terrorizing Mexico)...watch at your own risk..some hated this movie cause it's boring (it is a lil..but still love it)

Defining moment : ...I dunno..no moments..but the monsters were just lovely...If I have to choose..I love the underwater monster scene..pretty!

13. Potter Deathly Hallows Part 1

Another some hated it movie..I for one love this movie..to compare with the last installment this was much much better...I love how dark this movie went...I love that snake attack which actually was pretty darn scary...I also love how the off Dobby - a character I hated so much but actually felt a bit sad of his demise. And the built up for the 2nd chapter was nicely made in which made me scream...SHOW POTTER FASTER LAAAAA!

Defining moment : The snake attack scene...luv it


12.The Last Exorcism

3 Exorcism related film stood out for me, Exorcist (obviously), Emily Rose and this one episode from X-Files..yeeesh scary. Now add this movie into the fold..the kid that got posses in here is frightening!..the way she bend...yeeesh! I was genuinely scared till I open the bathroom light. However the ending...what in the world..either you love it or hate it... as for me..I'm baffled I dunno what to say bout the ending..but me leaning more towards hating it...but don't judge the movie solely on the ending..as a whole..it's a great one.

Defining moment : The poster got it...when she bend her body..I was like...WTF!


11. Rec2

Continuing directly from the first one, this time we follow a group of soldiers?..and 3 curious kids. They venture into the infected house and shit happens. What I love bout REC2? Well for starters it felt like a video game..(for me dunno bout u lah)...I'm referring to the scene where they're trying to find the old hag...where they switch from infra red and to ..well normal. Totally dig that concept..Then the kids, love it when they get kids involve in life or death matters..and lastly..the virus/possession reveal..I love it!..I thought it was just your normal zombie infection movie..I was totally wrong!..now let's see if the Americans can make good of Rec2 remake (though I heard they're not following the same plot)

Defining moment : Like I said earlier..the switching from infra red to normal was way cool..(but maybe this is just me)

*will continue when I got the time..bz dol
