2010 Faves
16 Really Good Movies

All in all, 2010 seemed like a really good year for entertainment: lots of great television, plenty of excellent music albums and a host of memorable movies.We asked a bunch of our contributors which films they liked the best, and here’s what they told us.

The way the movie industry works, there are probably a few on this list that would be higher if they came out earlier, so more of us could have seen them (the Coen Brothers’ True Grit and Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan both fit that profile, especially given these directors are recurring staff favorites), but this is a great snapshot of 16 great movies we loved as 2010 came to a close. 

16) True Grit

15) 127 Hours

14) The Other Guys

13) Iron Man 2

12) Youth in Revolt

9) The Crazies
