 Re: 2008 Films in Review
I'm tired of quantitative ratings, so I'm taking a page out of makeshift's book (aka stealing his idea) and using this format:
Better than sex 01. My Winnipeg
Masterful 02. The Dark Knight 03. Låt den rätte komma in [Let the Right One In] 04. Man on Wire 05. À l'intérieur [Inside] 06. 4 luni, 3 saptamâni si 2 zile [4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days] 07. In Bruges
Nearly there 08. Funny Games U.S. 09. The Ruins 10. Standard Operating Procedure 11. Burn After Reading 12. The Happening 13. Teeth 14. Hamlet 2 15. The Visitor

Meh 38. Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull 39. Valkyrie 40. Iron Man 41. Definitely, Maybe 42. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 43. Quantum of Solace 44. Street Kings 45. The Incredible Hulk
Kinda lame 46. W. 47. WALL·E 48. Leatherheads 49. Be Kind, Rewind 50. Frontière(s) [Frontier(s)] 51. Vantage Point 52. Doomsday
Really bad 53. Max Payne 54. Semi-Pro 55. 21 56. The Other Boleyn Girl 57. Get Smart 58. War, Inc. 59. Charlie Bartlett
