| I don't go to the movies much and it is even rarer for me to see a movie recommended by the "Critics", so I will limit my list to the one movie I saw and liked the most in 2013: The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug |

Very much looking forward to the next Hobbit... Have not seen many new films this year though, too wrapped up in tv series ------------- |

I want to see all of those (that's a list I'm sure I could get behind), but so far have only seen The World's End of them, which I really liked. I'm sure that I've seen a few really good ones from 2013, but would be hard-pressed to remember which ones were released that year as haven't been going to the cinema much, and most of what I watched this last year was from earlier years. I liked Her considerably,, and Like Someone in Love was very good. |

List of the movies released in 2013 that I've actually seen, in the order I'd rate them: The World's End - Another excellent Wright, Pegg, Frost comedy Iron Man 3 - Still very much enjoy watching Downey play Tony Stark. Ben Kingsley was a great addition. Thor 2 - Fun film Pacific Rim - Enjoyed Charlie Day and Ron Perlman. The rest was eh. Did keep me from having to see World War Z, though, so I thank it for that. -------------  Time always wins. |

I don't go to the flickers very often, it takes a lot to drag me way from my home to sit in a dank nickelodean with people of dubious eating and bathing habits watching the latest zeotropic projection, so the number of 2013 films I have seen thus far is somewhat limited. I did see the 50th anniversary Dr Who episode at a palace of the moving image in a town I don't live near and a "live" recording of the National Theatre's production of Frankenstein in an indie picture house in another town that is also not where I live. Anyway, of those few I did see:  I know it's a 2012 film but it was released in the UK on 22nd February 2013 so I'm counting it. I loved it, I also thought it was the best SF film I've seen in many a long year. Worse film I saw this year was Oblivion - having now sat through the dire Knight and Day and three disappointing Mission Impossible films my wife will have to tether me to several wild horses if she intends to drag me along to yet another Tom Cruise snorefest. Into Darkness was OK, Iron Man 3 was entertaining, Desolation of Smaug was an improvement but not by much, I foolishly missed A Field in England, I prolly should watch Rush sometime and as the multiplex in the town where I don't live wasn't showing Gravity in 3D on the day we went there, I haven't seen that yet either. Other films I haven't seen but want to are Worlds End, Sightseers and possibly Philomena. ------------- What? |

I think Django Unchained is the only 2013 movie I saw and actually liked.

Simultaneously? Nah, that must have been a stunt double or CGI. They'll be having him do dialogue you can actually hear and understand next. ------------- What? |

Wasn't it released in late 2012, though? ------------- "The past is not some static being, it is not a previous present, nor a present that has passed away; the past has its own dynamic being which is constantly renewed and renewing." - Claire Colebrook |

I don't see very many movies, but of what I did see this year, the list would be as follows: Good movies 1. Frozen: before you hate on me, try actually going to see it. Believe me, I thought it was going to be bad too. I was wrong. It was absolutely gorgeous. 2. Thor 2: Intense, gripping, and a whole lot of fun. Overall I tend to enjoy the Thor franchise more than any other superhero series because the Thor movies are really more fantasy-based than they are traditional superhero flicks. 3. Catching Fire: Far superior to the first movie in the series. Superior to the book also. The Hunger Games trilogy actually has a really good plot but is dragged down a bit by its subpar writing. This movie, on the other hand, is a good story told by good storytellers, and it makes all the difference. 4. Man of Steel: a lot better than any other Superman movie I've ever seen. Mediocre/bad/meh/otherwise disappointing movies 1. Machete Kills: So bad it's good 2. The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug: Don't get me wrong, I actually enjoyed it and it was pretty entertaining, but it was still a disappointment to me. Sorry, trying to turn the Hobbit into an action movie doesn't work. The superfluous fighting distracted from the plot, and you were never sure whether to take it seriously or not. The end drags on forever and then just drops off. ------------- I love dogs, I've always loved dogs |

No love for Isaac Florentine's `Ninja 2'?!  Truly set the standard for actions films in 2013...not that there were many others to choose from! At least that's one director who actually knows how to shoot a proper action flick, none of that shakey-camera work/`Bourne Identity'/thriller-pretending-to-be-an-action-flick guff! This s**t is so much like what I see when I close my eyes it's not funny...

I saw it in 2013, so it became my 2013 favourite film - Terrence Malick's To the Wonder. Fabulous visual feast. ------------- Writing about truth is a little bit like getting your dick out in public and hoping no one laughs (Steve Hogarth) |
