View Full Version : Best Movies of 2003
As this year is almost over I was thinking about the movies that I'd seen this year and which ones stood out.
For this year I'd have to say the absolute stand out movie I saw was
City of God - A true story and a truly brilliant film.
Honorable mentions go to:
Y Tu Mama Tambien
The 25th hour
The Life Of David Gale
Bend It Like Beckham

only saw one movie and it was a ripper - finding nemo.
In general going to the movies is too expensive.
Seabiscuit and Punch Drunk Love would probably be my favourites so far. Can't wait for ROTK though.

I've only been to the cinema three times this year so don't have a whole lot of options but I really enjoyed the Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
I've only seen 3 movie's this year and Finding Nemo was easily the best.
Finding Nemo wins by default then, as it's the only movie I've seen (or can remember seeing).

Hmmm. Movies that were real good in '03...
Finding Nemo
Matchstick Men
Punchdrunk Love
The Two Towers
X-men 2
Kill Bill
(did 'the Hours' come out this year or last?)
... and that's just off the top of my head.
Again - go to the movies!

Finding Nemo
Pirates of the Caribbean
Italian Job
Captain Sensible

Pirates of the Carribean
Phone Booth
Finding Nemo
I thought 2003 was a very poor year for films. The only 2 I really liked were:
KIll Bill Volume 1.
Gettin' Square.
Kill Bill Vol. 1
Matrix Reoaded (revolutions was very dissapointing)
Lady Lawrence

Identity with John Cusack
I can only think of two that I really enjoyed, so it must've been a sh*t year...
Finding Nemo
X2
Kill Bill
Pirates of the Caribbean
x-men 2
the ring (this might be 2002)
Battle Royal (this definatly was made in 2001 but it has just come out in our video store)

I would've really enjoyed The Ring if it was touted as a drama...but with all this talk of it being the "scariest movie of all time", I found it very disappointing, wasn't remotely scary.

Watch the original "Ringu", much scarier than The Ring. And The girl Sadako..arghh!! The Eye! she is Death personified!

Matrix Revolutions
:D
I loved "How To Lose A Guy In Ten Days". I didn't expect it to be a good movie but I absolutley loved it. So funny. After next week hopefully I can say the same for "Scary Movie 3". I love previous two Scary Movie's.

Yep.
Actually just saw it yesterday.
Was very disappointing because my friends were saying how "scary" it was. I found Play School more scary.

Seabiscuit - great storyline
Mystic River- superb acting and plot
Master and Commander- fantastic action. Crowe deserves an Oscar nomination.
Pirates of the Caribbean- fun, adventurous film

Mystic River should be in the overrated thread? Horribly predictable.

Ah I forgot!
'Phone Booth' with Colin Farrell. Great cinemotography, well made and well-acted. I thought Farrell deserves an Oscar nomination for it. Especially for his very well done New York accent when he is a full-on Paddy with a very strong Irish accent.
