Most greatest movies of this year
Do you like this story?
127 Hours
Director Danny Boyle has created some of the most intense
and memorable films in history. Trainspotting, The Beach, Sunshine and Slumdog
Millionaire – not too many directors can lay down a list as impressive as that.
And 127 hours definitely seems to be heading in the same direction as the
previous successes. Detailing the incredible story of a hiker’s survival,
courtesy of James Franco in the lead, 127 Hours looks incredible and while the
story is eerily intense due to the real life conclusion, Boyle might be up for
further Oscar recognition with this gem.
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey
It’s been a long road for The Hobbit. *Smirk*. Yes terrible
puns aside, the ‘prequel’ to Peter Jackson’s epic Lord of the Rings has finally
gotten itself a release date. For quite some time it was feared the project
would never get off the ground but it seems New Zealand hasn’t had enough yet
of Middle-Earthness and I’m incredibly grateful for that. LOTR was possible the
greatest trilogy of all time – other than the Godfather series of course or
Jurassic Park. Minus the second two that is. But if The Hobbit: Part I (since
renamed The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey) is done on the same scale as
Jackson’s previous venture with Tolkien’s story he could once again raise the
bar for fantasy – something that hasn’t been done since his first foray into
Middle Earth.
Sucker Punch
Sweet baby Jesus. Emily Browning…erm…I don’t know how to say
this – but will you marry me? Zack “Slow-Mo” Snyder, director of such epics as
300 and Watchmen, has officially won me over yet again with Sucker Punch. A
film so ludicrous in content it’s almost too good to be true. Guns, explosions,
giant samurai facing off against girls with swords and a giant dragon flying
around WWI-esque trenches! Plus Emily Browning! Is there no end to the awesome?
Maintaining his recognizable visual style, putting up a story that while
completely unlikely is still fairly intriguing – damn, we salute you!
The Hangover Part II
A lot of people had never heard of Zach Galifianakis before
The Hangover. Those fortunate of us had however gotten a taste in Out Cold, and
were wondering when the funny man would pop his bearded head out again. He did
so gloriously with 2009 hit The Hangover, and there’s no doubt that he
contributed a massive amount to the film’s success. He returns now with his
“Wolf Pack” in the second installment and number 2 on this list for Top 20 Films
To See In 2011 in The Hangover Part 2. While exact details are sketchy in terms
of story – it’s safe to say the key is in the title. With cameos from former US
President Bill Clinton and the surprisingly funny Mike Tyson, this will
definitely be one of the funniest films of 2011.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2
