Though the greatest Star Trek movie arguably came out in 1982, 2009's Star Trek did a fantastic job at rebooting and re-energizing the legendary sci-fi series for a new generation. It makes everything fast-paced and emphasizes action over everything else, which admittedly might be great for general audiences, though runs the risk of potentially dis...
Wes Anderson's first attempt at making an animated movie remains his best. The film in question is Fantastic Mr. Fox, with the original story written by Roald Dahl melding remarkably well with Wes Anderson's trademark visual style and sense of humor (with the screenplay adaptation being credited to both Anderson and occasional collaborator Noah Bau...
With Drag Me to Hell, Sam Raimi returned to the horror genre in a bold and explosive fashion, making a film that was a worthy spiritual successor to the series that put him on the map: the Evil Deadfilms. The plot concerns a loan officer who, while doing her job, is seemingly cursed by an older woman, and finds her life becoming increasingly more c...
It's a little confusing to define what year The Hurt Lockerultimately falls into. While it was first screened in 2008, the vast majority of people weren't able to see it until it got a wider release in 2009. Come awards season, it then competed with the other films released in 2009, ultimately winning an Oscar for Best Picture at the ceremony held ...
Moon's an inventive and very engaging science-fiction movie that manages to do a great deal with a limited scope and an even more limited cast. Sam Rockwellis pretty much the only actor to appear throughout the film in person, and gives a fantastic performance as an astronaut dealing with various complications and mysterious circumstances while wor...
Most people will say that the first 10 or so minutes of Up represent Pixar at its best. The Pixar movie opens in an emotionally devastatingfashion, showing a couple getting married before viewers see much of their lives play out in a montage. Right away, it's clear how much of a loss the husband suffered when his wife passes away at the montage's e...
It's got some stiff competition, but The White Ribbon stands as Michael Haneke's greatest film to date. It's an exceedingly bleak and surprisingly engrossing film, showing life in a small German village in the early years of the 20th century, with a particular focus on the conflict between the village's strict adults and its frequently mistreated c...
Avatar was the highest-grossing movie of 2009(it's also up there as an all-timer when it comes to the box office), and one of the year's best films overall, too. It's a spectacular science-fiction film set on a moon called Pandora, following a conflict between the native population there and the human race, who land on the moon hoping to mine it fo...
Star Trek, Moon, and Avatar all show what a great year 2009 was for the science-fiction genre, yet it's District 9 that inevitably stands as the greatest sci-fi movie of its year. Part mockumentary, part body horror, and part action movie, District 9 is a thrilling and socially conscious sci-fi movie about an alien ship that's stranded over the cit...
When judging by body count, Inglourious Basterds holds the distinction of being Quentin Tarantino's most bloodthirsty movie to date. Given the filmmaker is well known for the violence in his movies, a film standing out as the most deadly and brutal is no small feat. It's a fantastic war epic with some great dark humor and numerous sequences that ar...
