and some other films that I can't remember. haha

I missed one movie that I really want to watch The Time Traveler's Wife. Well I guess I just need to get a copy of this from my sources. hehehe

I know that I indicated that this is my Top 10 but that will be a tedious task to do. Here's my top 15 instead.. haha

#15. Blood: The Last Vampire (action, manga-based)
For sure a lot of people will not agree on this. Giana Jun is my favorite Korean actress and this entry is my bias. Well, it is my blog after all. Peace!

#14. Pandorum (space, psycological, suspense)
You may not heard of it before but this movie is about space exploration and the long traavel created a mental stace called pandorum. To know more, you need to watch it. hehe

#13. Julie & Julia (cooking, comedy)
This is based from lives of two women of separate time, having the same passion: Cooking. The latter created a challenge to finish 500 dishes of the former for the next 365 days, as she updated it on her blog.

#12. Marley and Me (drama, animal love)
A movie about a dog that changed the life of a man and his family. Heartwarming movie that will make you cry (tissue please...)

#11. The Orphan (suspense)
Watch this movie and for sure you're gonna hate Esther.

#10. Slumdog Millionaire (reality, drama)
No question about it, this is one of the best movie for 2009. Need to say more?

#9. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (drama)
like Slumdog, this movie is an Oscar- awarded movie.

#8. The Hangover ( comedy)
This is a Las Vegas Movie that went all wrong... Movie twists are unexpected and funny.

#7. Kimmy Dora (Filipino comedy)
I'll get back to you, I'll check on it, I'll give you an update". haha. One of the funniest Local films that I've watched (twice in a row) haha.

#6. The Proposal (comedy)
Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds in a romantic comedy film. A film of conlfick of interest turn into a whirlwind of romance.

#5. The Blind Side (drama, sports)
Another Bullock movie but this time is a sport/ drama. Thinking of this movie will make you sob. hayyy...

#4. Paranormal Activity (horror)
A 15k dollar movie turned into a monster hit. For sure you'll think twice on what's happening when you are asleep.

#3. Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (action, adventure)
The biggest summer movie in the US and a hit in the local cinemas. Can't wait for the 3rd installment of the film. Though it is long (I got sleep on this) I can say that the effects are above expectations.

#2. Avatar (sci-fi, adventure)
The last movie that I've watched and must be the last for 2009. CGIs are overwelming ang the story is twisted. Will there be a sequel? Cant this movie topples James Cameron's Titanic? We'll see...

#1 . Star Trek (space, adventure)
I had no idea of the Star Trek franchise until JJ Abrams brought this back on the big screen. The idea of a prequel is very effective and another movie is on its way.


That's it for now. Happy Holidays!
