thank God someone's giving Reign Over Me some credit. Adam Sandler gave one of hsi best performances and Cheadle always seems to do the job. You're dead on with saying how people assume it has everything to do with 9/11. Frankly its just people reading a book by its cover… and it bugs me. I dig these top 10 lists keep it up.

Love your criteria: Films you actually enjoyed and would watch over and over again. Some 2007 movies were indeed excellent, but I wouldn't watch them again for all the money in the world (hello No Country). Others you enjoyed, but uickly forgot (Transformers, Die Hard). As such, I'll keep your number 1, but I have to add:
2) Gone, Baby, Gone- I couldn't stop thinking about it. I hope Ben Affleck NEVER acts again and concentrates in directing instead.
3) Michael Clayton
4) Juno
5) 3:10 to Yuma (Ben Foster was magnificent)
6) Knocked Up
7) Into the Wild
8) Atonement
9) Superbad
10) The Orphanage

You hit it on the head kettch. I love those cerebral films that make me think, but when it comes to naming my top ten I always look for those films that I will watch over and over again. If they are the thinkers then so be it, but as much as I enjoyed No Country for Old Men I will be watching Bourne Ultimatum far more times on DVD.

Thanks for reading, hopefully '08 will be just as good as '07!

I find your pick for #1 interesting. I agree that it was a good movie. However, it took me a bit to realize why I liked it so much. I guess it turns out that while I enjoy various genre's, it's always the fun movies that I end up liking the most.

I guess a lot of people go to movies that move them emotionally, make them cry, examine a moral dilemma, etc. I know a lot of people who like movies that make some sort of intellectual point. I don't know if they really like them, of if they just think it makes them look like a serious student of film.

Frankly, I deal with enough serious issues in my life. I wanna see 'em blow shit up! On that, Bourne delivers.

I didn't get to see very many movies in 2007. Some of your list didn't even have showings where I live. I guess this is a good start on my netflix for the next few months.

Thanks for a great year of news and opinions!
