Margaret Agnew's Top 10 Films of the Decade
Favs/dislikes: 2:0. As we speed rapidly towards 2010 and debate whether to pronounce it twenty-ten or two-thousand-and-ten, it's time to reflect on the first decade of the millennium. The noughties have been a decade of thrilling highs and deep dark lows for fans of celluloid. Hobbits reigned supreme, running amok in Wellywood, and shining a spotlight on New Zealand talent, however, we also saw the invention of a genre called torture-porn, thanks largely to the blood-splattering franchise holders of Saw and Hostel. Here we prefer to look on the bright side, with the 10 best films of 2000-2009. You can almost guarantee that my top 10 will be vastly different from yours. So, without further ado, let the arguments begin! (In alphabetical order and LOTR trilogy as one entry) -
MSN Movies: Best of the Decade
Favs/dislikes: 2:0. Saying that we've come up with the 12 best films of the decade is pretty hilarious when you get right down to it. You can't take the thousands of films released in the past 10 years and say, "Yes, these by far represent the greatest cinema had to offer!" Hell, if you quizzed the 12 of us right now, we'd probably give you completely different lists than the ones we delivered in early December 2009. But, you can't say it isn't fun, right? -

Bill Gibron's The 10 Best Films of the Decade (2000 - 2009)
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. Bill Gibron is a writer and film critic for popmatters. He wrote the 10 best films of decade in the end of 2009. Here his about that description for the list: Talk about tough! Even if this wasn’t a full time job, taking up as much of one’s life as any career plus concept of entertainment could, trying to pick out ten titles from an equal number of years is almost impossible. It’s not like television, which tends to keep its beloved entities on the air long enough to make a memorable impact. It’s also not like music, which can play in the background of one’s life sometimes decades after release. No, movies demand attention. They require patience and perspective. They are the most unique of artforms because they come at you complete. You can love a particular band or album even with one or two clunkers among the set list. No TV show is ever going to be 100% funny/dramatic/thrilling/thought-provoking all the time. But film doesn’t dignify such flaws. Instead, it amplifies them, destroying brilliant direction, excellent acting, or superb storytelling along the way. Naturally, this creates a kind of cinematic standard, a benchmark by which we measure both the good and the bad. And yet, going back over the near 3500 entries for possible inclusion here (figure it out - that’s 350 per year, or almost one a day for the last decade…and yes, I did watch each and every one, be they theatrical or on DVD) is still a mammoth undertaking, one that gears itself noticeably toward the most recent viewing experiences. Indeed, a lot of lists out there currently offer pickings from 2007 - 2009 almost exclusively, making you wonder if these so called experts even saw anything prior to the second Bush Administration. Add in the almost infinite and exhaustive “honorable mentions” and you’ve got a pointless combination of limited perspective and bet hedging. Don’t worry - this list won’t be any better. As a matter of fact, one can probably pick it apart point-by-point and argue over the merits of each selection. Still, as a function of one person’s own individual likes and dislikes, as a Herculean attempt to take one’s passion and profession and summarize it in several hundred words or less, it’s the way things stand…today…at this moment…without too much internal kvetching. Could it all change tomorrow? Probably. Are some of these choices set in cement, almost inarguable in their inclusion? Yes. So grab your cinematic salt (you’ll need it to take most of what you’ll read next) and settle in for SE&L"s Top 10 Films of the Decade (2000 - 2009), starting with a very unusual selection in the final spot: -
James Beardinelli: Closing out the Decade with Another Top 10
Favs/dislikes: 8:0. One of the most significant film critic James Beardinelli chose his top 10 movies of the noughties Here is his description about the list: [Note: I don't want to get drawn into tedious arguments about whether the next decade begins in 2010 or 2011. Purists will argue that it starts in 2011 and, in an absolute sense, they're correct. But who really cares? Relativistically, any 10-year period can represent a decade, so there's nothing "wrong" about speaking of the "decade of the '00s" (meaning 2000-2009). It's a little cleaner. Don't bother to spar with me about it either by e-mail or in the forums. It's a pointless distinction. By writing this, I have already given it more attention than it deserves.] Everyone's doing it and I did it ten years ago, so why not again? Admittedly, compiling an annual Best 10 can become tiresome but I figure that, best case, I've only got about another five of these end-of-decade lists to do, so I might as well enjoy them while I can. I feel confident that my choices here represent my true feelings about the films and where they deserve to be placed alongside their 2000-2009 fellows. Avatar is a little fresh, so its position could change, but the rest have been allowed to marinate. Any "best of" list, including this one, is a representation of an individual's opinions. It's highly personal. By some set of "objective" criteria, I'm sure few (if any) of these titles would make a '00s Top 10 list, but that's not what it's about. This represents a brief catalog of the ten movies released between January 1, 2000 and December 31, 2009 that have impacted me the most forcefully in one way or another. They provided experiences I treasure and that have enriched me. I reserve the right to change the titles (or their order) in the future - I cannot predict how any fluidity in my opinions might alter the way I think about a particular movie in 5, 10, or 20 years. So, without further annoying preliminary commentary, I present… -

Vanity Fair: The 10 Best Films of the Decade
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. There’s no getting around it: ten-best lists are arbitrary and cruel. Summing up as cinematically rich a decade as this one is impossible, and any such attempt can promise nothing but blood feuds and celluloid psychosis. So, let’s give it a try!
