Best of the Decade 2000-2009
Written by Rachel on December 27, 2009

Movieweb.com compiled a list of the “Best Films of the Decade (2000-2009).” The list included both audience pick and critics pick.

Aught Blog Critic’s Pick for 2005? The Forty Year Old Virgin.
Directed by Judd Apatow, this R rated comedy went on to earn $109 million at the box office. With the PG-13 rating dominating the early part of the Aughts, Apatow created a smart and intelligent adult sitcom that revolved around real human themes and emotions. In one fail swoop, he proved that an R rated comedy could still cash in at the box office. This one flick kick-started far too many careers to count, including Paul Rudd’s, Steve Carell’s, Seth Rogen’s, and Jane Lynch’s. Not to mention creating a brand name out of the last name Apatow. While many similar films have followed in its footsteps, no other comedy has meant as much to this decade as The Forty Year Old Virgin.

Notable Films for 2010
Written by Rachel on December 25, 2009

I Love You Phillip Morris
Opens: February 5th 2010
Cast: Jim Carrey, Ewan McGregor, Leslie Mann, Rodrigo Santoro
Director: Glenn Ficarra, John Requa

Summary: A fact-based film about Steven Russell, a married father whose exploits landed him in the Texas criminal justice system. He fell madly in love with his male cellmate, who eventually was set free, which led Russell to escape from Texas prisons four times.

Analysis: Premiering last year at Sundance as one of the hot tickets of the festival, reviews proved good but mixed with some saying the film is an oddly conventional Hollywood rom-com, despite its gay and true story angles, and is tamer than expected considering it’s from the same guys who brought us “Bad Santa”.

Others however, most notably distributors, balked at the film’s inconsistent tone and unapologetic depiction of all-male love from Carrey & McGregor’s tender romantic kisses to comedically-toned graphic sex between Carrey and various one-night stands. Struggling for many months to find someone to open it, Consolidated Pictures Group was the indie group with the balls to step up and set a release for February in the US.

Still, despite scoring the best reviews of a Carrey comedy in years, it’s not expected to fly at all with audiences beyond a certain niche as mainstream audiences avoid ‘gay’-themed films out of hate, fear, or most commonly sheer disinterest. It reminds me of the sad testament that the notoriously homophobic “I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry” took in twice as much money as Oscar nominee “Brokeback Mountain”.

Oh so true …

Leslie Mann
“We can tell how good you’ll be in bed by how good you are on the dance floor. This isn’t an invitation to grind your boners into our asses — we’re looking more for rhythm, ingenuity, and joie de vivre.”


Quentin Tarantino’s Top Films of 2009
Written by Rachel on December 15, 2009

Prefacing his list by saying he’s leaving Inglourious Basterds out of it, and pointing out he still hasn’t seen Avatar or The Lovely Bones yet, Quentin Tarantino compiles his list of his eight favorite films of the year. Interestingly, Tarantino did not include The Hurt Locker on the list. District 9 didn’t make the cut either, a movie I would have guessed he’d love.

Here is his list:

1. “Star Trek”
2. “Drag Me to Hell”
3. “Funny People”
4. “Up in the Air”
5. “Chocolate”
6. “Observe and Report”
7. “Precious”
8. “An Education
