lol i was going to leave 3rrd spot empty after kill bill and the beach, now requiem has to be added too. But yeah, those 3 were absolute best movies
also interesting that most of the better movies were made in the first half of decade, means we havent had anything huge come out in a long time( only avatar could do)

I watched the first infernal affairs film and I liked departed better

Wait will smith at his finest? Maybe because the majority of the film is just will smith?

It's one of my favorite movies of ALL-TIME and have yet to find anybody who didn't thoroughly enjoy it. The acting is wonderful, the action is wonderful, the drama is bountiful. It's just a beautifully made movie.
Definitely worth a rental if you haven't already! I'll definitely give it a watch, it's true when it came out the trailer didn't interest me or any of my friends so we just didn't bother with it. but thanks for the recommendation

2- Saving Private Ryan
these 2 were on my top 10 of all time, but they were made before 2000 so it's obviously not on my list

1. The Prestige 2. Inglourious Basterds 3. Gladiator 4. District 9 5. Snatch 6. A Beautiful Mind 7. Into the Wild 8. The Dark Knight 9. LotR: RotK 10. Matrix (1999, FUCK YOU!)
This list would be a bit easier if it included anime moves though. 5 cm/s, The Place Promised in the Early Days, Lagann-hen, The Sky Crawlers so awesome.

In no particular order;
Infernal Affairs The Matrix trilogy (all three, screw the haters, 2+3 were just fine) Lord of the Rings trilogy Donnie Darko V for Vendetta Oldboy Primer New Police Story Gattaca Hero Ratatouille
A bunch that are near the top. I stopped watching a lot of movies lately I should go back and start...

It seems like FragKrag and ahole are the only ones that have decent lists imo. I left a bunch out that weren't 2000-2010(before). Edit: Too many ppl are putting down movies that are not from this decade however you wanna define this decade as (1999-2009 or 2000-2010).
Here's my list in chronological order. I'm gonna break rules and list more than 10.
2009 - up in the air - I'm not sure if this belongs here but it was a pretty good movie. 2009 - the hurt locker - Competes with black hawk down .. hard to pick between the two. 2009 - district 9 - Rises above being an independence day kind of film to actually having some deeper meaning. 2008 - slumdog millionaire - Kind of a unique movie and certainly one of the best of 2008. 2008 - iron man - Kind of in the category as gladiator imo ... better than dark knight (which was underwhelming to me). 2008 - in bruges - A gem. 2008 - the wrestler - Comparable to million dollar baby. 2007 - eastern promises - Slightly underrated. I'm not sure it should be on this list though. 2007 - atonement - Not sure it should be here on this list. 2006 - pan's labyrinth - Fairy tale for adults. Perfect execution. 2006 - little miss sunshine - Better than the life aquatic, royal tenebaums, and any of those quirky funny films. 2006 - children of men - Arguably the best movie of this decade. 2006 - wordplay - See below. 2005 - murderball - Competes with spellbound and wordplay as best documentaries. I admit I prob missed some documentaries that may be better than any of these 3. 2005 - syriana - Not sure if should be here on this list. 2005 - crash - Better than babel in terms of multi-interweaving stories. 2005 - serenity - Best action sci-fi of the decade. 2004 - million dollar baby - Not sure if this is really a true sports movie but it does compete with the wrestler ... and I think it comes out on top to be honest. 2004 - eternal sunshine on a spotless mind - A gem and best in the sparse sad romantic weird movie category. 2004 - the incredibles - The best animated movie of this decade imo ... better than nemo, wall-e, ratatouille, etc. Shrek is actually a different kind of movie imo but still I think there can be a case for the incredibles being the best animated movie in the last decade period. 2003 - old boy - I haven't seen that many Asian movies but this has to be one of the best (Sure infernal affairs is good but I think in terms of Asian movies old boy is better and more unique). 2002 - cidade de deus - Arguably the best movie of the decade. 2002 - spellbound - Competes with wordplay and murderball as best docu. 2002 - 25th hour - Not sure it should be here on this list. 2002 - 28 days later - Best scary movie in the traditional zombie-sense. 2001 onwards - LOTR - Most epic series ... better than harry potter as a series. 2001 - amelie - Competes with chocolat in terms of charm. 2001 - black hawk down - Competes with hurt locker. 2001 - training day - Similar to 25th hour. Not sure it should be here on this list. 2001 - moulin rouge - Chicago could be a better musical but I've never seen it so this is it for this genre. O brother where out thou was worse ... can't think of any other musicals off top of my head. 2000 - requiem for a dream - Pure hell in terms of non-zombie scary. 2000 - snatch - Pure fun ... I once wrote an essay on cursing in movies and I actually counted how many times fuck was said in this film =) for my paper. Better than ocean's 11, the italian job, and most heist films. 2000 - chocolat - Competes with amelie in terms of charm. 2000 - gladiator - Perhaps the best action movie of the decade.

If you count matrix I count fight club
|
I'm not a huge fan of Fight Club anyways!
|
Fight Club and Gattaca are before 2000.
|
I really wanted to like District 9. I even bought it when it came out, but I just don't care for it all that much
p.s- i'm watching the informant for the first time right now (paused so I could make a PB sandwich), but it's sort of.. ugh you can just see the guy slowing shooting himself in the foot progressively through the movie. You really like the main guy because he means well, but... man...

xD
honestly, while there's several very good movies on that list, it is really quite.. boring
btw, how does 28dayslater have traditional zombies? Traditional zombies are slow as hell
|
There usually a reason why they won awards =). Name me another zombie movie this decade that can compete with 28 days.
