Top 5 Thursday: Movies from 2010

Let’s see what movies 2010 brought us. It’s seems not that long ago, but it’s already 4 years ago! Time flies. A big list of films, only a few I can pick. Here are my favourites of 2012.

5. Black Swan

A thriller that is getting close to horror, because it’s really freaking scary. And Natalie Portman is so good in this movie. “Black Swan” is disturbing, yet one of the best movies of 2010.

 

 

4. Inception

This blew my mind when I saw it in theatres. What great visuals and that music… djeez… Fantastic movie.

 

 

3. Easy A

The movie that made me love Emma Stone. “Easy A” may sound like an average teen comedy, but it’s so much more. The lead characters is actually likeable and very intelligent.

 

 

2. Toy Story 3

This is the best in the series. It made ma both laugh and cry, and that fire scene was actually really scary and disturbing coming to think of it. It could’ve traumatized millions of children. But “Toy Story 3” is a great adventure and it’s a wonderful Pixar film.

 

 

1. 127 Hours

This is definitely the movie with the best performance of 2010 (and not Colin Firth!!!). James Franco is amazing in “127 Hours” and you really feel adrenaline rushing through your blood during its entire runtime.

Top 5 Thursday: Female Double-Acts

It’s all about the girl now, because sometimes it takes two strong women to carry a movie. Here are my favourite female double-acts in movies.

5. Marianne and Eleanor in “Sense and Sensebility”
Two sisters, completely different, but they have a strong bond.

4. Jess and Jules in “Bend it Like Beckham”
Two pretty girls who are awesome at soccer! Jess and Jules both come from a different background, but they click right from the start and share one passion: soccer. Oh, and they are both in love with their coach Joe.

3. Annie and Lillian in “Bridesmaids”
They have been best friends since childhood and they are more like sisters. When Lillian is getting married, Annie realizes that she is losing her. Annie does everything to not let that happen.

2. Rose and Nora in “Sunshine Cleaning”
Two sisters, totally different, decide to start a crime scene clean-up business. But what they are actually cleaning up is their messed up lives.

1. Nina and Lily in “Black Swan”
We don’t really get them, because this is a thin line between reality and fantasy here. And also love and hate. Nina is the good girl, she wants to be perfect, and Lily is a gate crasher, an average dancers and ruins everything for Nina.
