WTBT Top Movies of 2005...

Here are my top movies of 2005. These are only movies I have seen. I am sure there are a few others that were fantastic, but they just didn't make my list. Tell me about other great movies that I need to see in the comments section.

14. Sin City - Robert Rodriguez did a great job adapting Frank Miller's graphic novels.
13. Hitch - Will Smith with the first truly fun movie of 2005. Eva Mendes lays claim to super hot status. Kevin James is entertaining as always.
12. 40Year Old Virgin - Steve Carell is hilarious playing sex challenged. Gerry Bednob is hysterical as Mooj.
11. Cinderella Man - Ron Howard and Russell Crowe team together again for the real life story of boxer Jim Braddock. Amazingly well told story.
10. King Kong - Peter Jackson has redefined the epic movie. Fantastic performances and a great story. Naomi Watts was wonderful as Ann Darrow.
9. Wedding Crashers - Although it had a few disturbing scenes it was a hilarious movie. Vince Vaughn continually proves that he is one of the funniest actors out there. Rachel McAdams again proves she is my favorite.
8. Batman Begins - Resurrection of an almost dead franchise. Chris Nolan brought the Bat back to life with great performances by Christian Bale and the timeless Michael Caine.
7. March of the Penguins - Documentary which made you both laugh and cry. The penguins were also damn cute.
6. Wallace & Grommit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit - Claymation wonderfully comes back into the mainstream. Hopefully this duo has numerous sequels
5. Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith - Finally a worthy companion to the first three movies. The climatic battle between Obi Wan and Anakin is great. Sadly there will be no more movies. :(
4. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - The movies just keep getting better. Excellent job of condensing the story without missing the important parts. Emma Watson just keeps getting cuter as well.
3. Syriana - Intense movie that makes you wonder what really goes on in the world. George Clooney and Jeffrey Wright have some fantastic performances. Great movie that makes you wonder about the great USA.
2. Crash - Incredible cast. Incredible acting. Incredible story. This movie made more people look at how they treat others than any movie before it. If you have not seen it you should run out and get it.
1. Good Night, and Good Luck - Fantastic movie showing Edward R. Murrow's fight against McCarthyism. David Straithin should receive numerous awards for his incredible portrayal of Murrow. Very inspiring movie.

"The Exorcism of Emily Rose" was also quite good, at least I thought. But I'm into weird movies like that.

On a side note... for those interested in seeing a movie about a woman who works to fight a cult that abuses women, I highly recommend 'Savage Messiah'.
