Here is The Germanator's "list of movies I saw in the theatres this year and actually didn't walk out thinking, or saying, 'man, I wasted $8.50'"

City of God: I walked into this one not expecting much at all...Mainly because I was on a date and we just sort of decided to go to the independent theatre in Philly for the heck of it. What a pleasant surprise it was. The film takes place in Brazil (based on a true story) and follows the path of two young teenagers. One decides to take the path of a gang leader, one becomes a photographer. Lots of drugs are dealt, people killed, ya know, the good stuff, but all done very realistically and raw. Great direction, great characters, great story, great movie. I need to rent it now.

Spellbound: A very interesting and cute documentary about kids who were involved with spelling bee competitions. The different methods taken by both the parents and children in their training was one of the most intruiging aspects of the film, from the strict dad who makes his son study 20,000 words a day to the seemingly clueless parents who let their daughter pace herself. Enjoyable throughout, I say to you, "don't miss(spell) this one!"

28 Days Later: How can you not like a zombie movie? Fun summer movie to see. Very cool shots of an empty London, some thrills, some fast-ass zombies = cool movie. Some of the plot I could have done without, but the music-driven action sequences made it more than worthwhile.

Kill Bill (vol.1) Quentin Tarantino knows how to do it. Don't **** around with dialogue, plot, story, etc. Give me some blood, give me some crazy ass anime sequences, give me hundreds of Japanese limbs all over the place. One the better film-going experiences I've had in a long time. Can't remember one part when I didn't have a smile on my face. Look forward to volume 2.

Others I don't feel like talking about much: American Splendor (Very good), Elf (Will Ferrell is funny), A Mighty Wind(Christopher Guest movie, not as good as 'Best in Show', but still good), Finding Nemo (Cant' go wrong with Pixar, nice classic comedy)
