• Via the Myspace and Boring-Ass Life blogs, Kevin hooks us up with a bonus entry this week, listing not only his top 10 films of the year 2006, but also including a rather comprehensive list of ALL the flicks that came out last year, then a subset of the ones he saw (just to be fair to the stuff he missed, something you don’t see the critics do, then again, they’re supposed to see EVERYTHING). You can of course read the posts in full at either of the above locations, though here’s just the list of the 10 itself. For Kevin’s commentary and rationale for each, hit the blogs!

The blog posts include photos and of course those comprehensive lists, so do pay them a visit as well!

Having not seen nearly as many flicks as Kev did last year, gotta send agreements on The Departed, Children of Men, United 93, and The Prestige, which hits DVD soon and has some great twists and turns. Personally, this webmaster thought Borat fell a bit flat after a while, and did much better in 10 minute dose on the original Ali G show. Little Miss Sunshine was good, but would I watch it again anytime soon? Not so sure. Given Kevin’s recommendation, many of the other flicks on the that will be ones that I’ll seek out soon, definitely Perfume and Half Nelson. It seems lately that the disappointments stick out more than the hits…Superman Returns was a huge let-down, for example. The Descent was a great surprise, though, and one of the scariest horror flicks in a LONG time. You never know what the year will bring. With blockbusters like Spidey 3 and Die Hard hitting this summer, along with the new comedy from those Shaun of the Dead guys, “Hot Fuzz”, and some indie surprises as well (Horror flick “The Signal” has been getting GREAT buzz from Sundance, can’t wait to check that one out). The great thing about being a film fan is the variety we have to choose from, and the love you can have for all different genres.
