Heath Ledger won it all. I liked him in The Patriot, but this was the best role he has ever played. I was upset to see Katie Holmes being replaced, but Heath and Morgan blew it away. Awesome work of Christopher Nolan.
It's obvious. Every website you search for the best films of the 2000s, Dark Knight will stay #1.
One of the best superhero movies EVER! I'm not even exaggerating.
The last part of the genius Lord of The Rings trilogy is a true lasting legacy in storytelling and now cinema. Bravo, Peter Jackson.
What an epic movie! If you haven't watched this, you are missing out!
That is a lot of The Lord of the Rings movies. It must be very popular.
Truthfully, the best in the series. Return is excellent, and Towers is a bit long, but this one is the most interesting with characters and story. Plus, someone dies, so that's always a lot more epic.
The beginning of The Lord of The Rings started the adventure of the decade.
Every detail of this movie was fantastic.
Brilliant. Paul Thomas Anderson's masterpiece, to say the least.
The second movie of the trilogy, The Two Towers begins to bring the hope of good triumphing over evil.
This film absolutely slaps. The atmosphere, performances, and pure genius writing and directing just send this film up with some of the greats. I love everything about it, especially Javier Bardem's performance as Anton Chigurh. He was effing scary.
Such an intricately wound story! Taken from beginning.
Among Scorsese's best.
The second-best movie of the decade, the best epic historical, and one of the best ever.
The Newcomers
The best of the prequels. I was taken with it from beginning to end, unlike Attack of the Clones, which was almost the opposite.
Then again, I'm apparently one of the few who enjoyed The Phantom Menace, so what the hell do I know?
It was the worst possible end for the good side - Anakin Skywalker turning into Darth Vader. But I think this is the best Star Wars movie.
How the hell is this outstanding movie below Transformers?!
The movie that plays with time.
One of the most beautiful animated movies ever.
My favorite movie franchise along with Jurassic Park, Lethal Weapon, and Indiana Jones.
A great high-budget teen-style action movie. One of Michael Bay's greatest movies.
I actually have this as good as Reservoir Dogs on my Tarantino film list, above Kill Bill and Pulp Fiction. Gripping from beginning to end.
Christoph Waltz deserved the Oscar.
Third best Tarantino film. Can stand close to Kill Bill and Pulp Fiction. Has some of the coolest characters and a cool story. SPOILER - (No joke) Hitler gets shot in the face.
Awesome effects and fights! Same stuff, but it's still satisfying.
Far and above any of the sequels, and eminently rewatchable.
A vision of the future never presented greater in an animated movie. Way to go, Wall-E.
