the year is almost over. time for the best-of-2007-lists. my favorite movies this year are:1. alpha dog
surprisingly intense. leaves you totally disconcerned in the end if you consider that it's a true story. and timberlake actually isn't a bad actor.
2. lions for lambs
my favorite anti-war movie after 9/11. and it`s about afghanistan, which people often overlook. a shocking story told in real time. redford at its best, tom cruise as a slick, slimy republican - very convincing.
3. death proof
tarantino as we know him. incredibly fast, cruel and hot, more dialogues than usual. you must have seen that crash!
4. bourne ultimatum
this year, jason bourne, the alternative spy-hero has finally found out about his past. and how! faster and more thrilling than ever, this final of the trilogy was my favorite action movie in 2007.
5. gone baby gone
probably nobody had expected ben affleck to direct a decent movie, but he did. the atmosphere he created of boston's lower classes is credible and real, the story is shocking. like this year's fracture or zodiac this film is about how a crime and the search for a killer can destroy the investigators' lives.
feel free to comment on that list and to add your own top 5 ranking of this year's films. we are looking forward to your opinions.
