Ok so I’m a tad bit late on this, like the saying goes. Better late than never right? Quite honestly I don’t bother with many modern films since I really dislike the way Hollywood has been going the last few years. There are a lot of great films out there and I’m very picky on what I watch with modern flicks. I could have made a top 10, but I don’t wanna add films simply to get to a certain number so here’s my top 7 of the year.
As I see more 2012 releases I’ll edit this, but I can say for fact my top 2 will remain the same. This list starts at number 7 all the way to my top film of the year.
7. Batman: The Dark Knight Returns- *** ½
Very solid film and possibly my favorite animated Batman film.
6. Skyfall- ****
Another great Bond entry. In my opinion Daniel Craig is the best Bond.
5. The Dictator- ****
I loved it and while not exactly Borat its often hysterical.
4. American Reunion- **** ½
Best since the original; this slice of pie was hysterical.
3. Amazing Spider-Man- **** ½
As much as I love the first 2 by Sam Raimi, this reboot was great. Andrew Garfield owns the role and Emma Stone was a joy to watch.
2. The Dark Knight Rises- *****
Chris Nolan does it again with another epic. The Dark Knight trilogy just might be the best of all time. Anne Hathaway steals the show with a brilliant performance.
1. Django Unchained- *****
Yes I am a Quentin Tarantino fanboy and I’ll admit a Leonardo DiCaprio fanboy. Django is hands down the best film of 2012 for me and once again QT crafts a masterpiece of filmmaking.
