5 for 2008

Couldn't really come up with TEN great films from 2008. It was really a sub-par year for great films. When the likes of THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON, SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE, and THE WRESTLER being insanely overpraised by critics everywhere....it smacks of grasping at straws.
I'll stick with five great films the year managed to give us....in no particular order.....

James Marsh's Man On Wire



Martin McDonagh's IN BRUGES


Christopher Nolan's THE DARK KNIGHT


Gus Van Sant's MILK


Roger Donaldson's THE BANK JOB
