2012 films

Blah blah blah films watched in 2012 blah blah see previous years for details blah blah

1) Memento. Insert joke about having seen this before.
2) My neighbours the Yamadas. Insert jokes about someone making a film about our family.
3) Arrietty. Another film about our family.
4) Salt. Didn’t expect to enjoy that one as much as I did.
5) Dagon. Inbreeding never looked so good.
6) The adjustment Bureau. Dear Philip K Dick, one day someone will make a film based on one of your books that is actually like one of your books.
7) Les Maitres du Temps. My little tribute to the passing of a great artist.
8) 300. Half naked men sweating.
9) Sherlock Holmes. I don’t know which is his best character, Iron Man or Holmes.
10) Dog Soldiers. Big plot holes but a good film.
11) Tintin. A solid version of Tintin with plenty of references to other books.
12) No country for old men. Javier Bardem is possibly the most sinister men on the planet.
13) Lost in Translation. A beautiful film.
14) Tron Legacy. I do like that film.
15) The Muppets. I haven’t laughed that hard in ages.
16) Super 8. Odd. I enjoyed it but the last five minutes left me feeling a bit… let down.
17) Close encounters of the spooky kind. Scratching an itch over 20 years old.
18) Sin City. Dark, moody and atmospheric.
19) The Thin Red Line. I’ve tried watching this film several times but never made it all the way through.
20) Attack the Block. Entertaining film with one or two little niggles that annoyed me slightly.
21) Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Itch number two scratched.
22) Kick-Ass. A recent Nic Cage film that wasn’t rubbish.
23) Fear and loathing in Las Vegas. My number 1 film of all time according to flickchart.
24) The watcher in the woods. A very odd but interestingly filmed Disney horror/sci-fi.
25) Where the buffalo roam. Jury is still out on that film. I can’t bring myself to like it but its not all bad.
26) The Prisoner. Nothing to do with the TV series, its a slightly shocking Alec Guinness film.
27) Die Hard. That film will never get boring.
28) Dirty Harry. Another film that nevers gets boring.
29) The last man on Earth. Vincent Price at his not quite finest but pretty good.
30) Iron Man. The rich get all the best toys.
31) The Royal Tenenbaums. Odd but enjoyable.
