Well 2010 was a lean year for exceptional movies, but 2010 did have enough standouts to form a top 10 list. Many of you may disagree when it comes my choices of the ‘best’ so here are the criteria I used to judge the nearly 300 films viewed this year. The best films must have exceptional acting, directing and screenplay. Additional elements are cinematography, use of computer graphics/make-up/special effects, choreography, art direction, music and editing.

Well acted and directed Casino Jack provides a scary look into government politics and though the eyes of super lobbyist Jack Abramoff. It’s Kevin Spacey at his best with a brilliantly cringing performance that tells all about the government gangster who goes out of control. With Barry Pepper at Spacey’s side, this film comes up a winner.
I’m not a film elitist by any means, but I’ve had a hard time all year trying to find films to put on my top 10 list; those films I think should be held out for recognition. For the most part, I believe, it’s been a really lame year for the industry in terms of memorable films. In terms of box office however, the opposite is true, it’s been the best year since 1927.
