This year I wanted to recap my favorite 10 movies of the year. Allow me to preface this list by stating that my second addiction, which often rivals my video game addiction, is MOVIES!!! I got to the movies every weekend and sometimes twice. I often go to the movies during the week if I fall behind. I love movies. I have a huge DVD collection. That being said I'm no professional critic. Without further delay, Jonny Figs top 10 movies of 2005.

#10 Hide and Seek

This movie was friggin awesome. That Dakota Fanning girl is straight up creepy. And who would of guessed...... nah I won't spoil it, but Dinero was great in this movie. Bonus tip: watch the DVD alternate endings.

#9 Ong-Bak: The Thai Warrior

Can you say @ss kicking action with old  school subtitles. Do not, I repeat Do not watch this movie with the dubbed voice overs. You will turn it off after the first few scenes. If you watch it with the subtitles you will love it. I haven't seen stunts like this ever! Good movie for martial art fans. My mom even liked it.

#8 Hostage

One name, Bruce Willis. Yes thats right, the old Bruce is back in this movie that I feel was slept on by most people I know. The story in this movie is great and is a nice change from what was out this year. I loved the house they used for this movie, I want it. Bruce gives a great performance in this movie and you won't regret watching it.

#7 Sin City

This movie was the first blockbuster of the year if you ask me. It fits nicely on the list at number seven. The direction was stellar and the acting by Rourke was sweet. The all star cast (including Bruce hehe) was large and in charge. Do not miss this movie if you haven't seen it.

#6 Wedding Crashers

This movie was histerical! Vince and Owen are friggin great together. I don't know what was funnier the movie or the skit they did for the MTV movies awards based on their characters in the movie. This is definitely one of the funniest movies I've seen. Added Bonus: Shhhhh... guys, there is a lot of T&A in this one.

#5 Saw II

Ok ok, I know you are probably saying, wasn't one so so. Yes Saw I was asstatic in many ways, coughGlovercough, coughElwescough, these guys totally mailed it in for the first one. Thankfully they brought in a new cast with Donny Walberg, who is one of my favorites from Band of Brothers. This movies was 10 times better than than the first. The plot was great and had an even better twist at the end. I can't wait for Saw III if it ever gets made.

#4 Batman Begins

If you didn't see this movie then A) you aren't a movie goer or B) you don't like comic book movies. Everyone else should have seen this summer blockbuster. This movie rocked, period. Christian Bale is made to play Batman. I just hope they continue to stay dark with the tone of the next movie.

#3 King Kong

This movie was well worth the wait. For a December release this sure felt like a summer blockbuster. Peter Jackson is worth the hype. He did an amazing job on this movie. I know some critics gave it mediocre reviews but don't believe the "haters". This movie will go down as one of my all time favorites. P.S. Kong was friggin awesome!!!!

#2 40 Year Old Virgin

Well well well, this movie somehow ressucitated the adult comedy genre single handedly, well with some help from Wedding Crashers as well. Look foward to 2006 delivering more of these movies as studio execs try to ride this wave. This movie is so funny I think I swallowed a junior mint and shot it out of my nose. I can't tell you how hard my ribs hurt the next day. I felt like I went 3 rounds with Lenox Lewis. Great to be # 2 on the list, good job 40 year old virgin.

And the # 1 movie of the year.....................

Like you didn't see this coming,

Star Wars Episode III Revenge of the Sith

If you are a Star Wars fan then you understand. If you liked Star Wars at anytime in your life, you probably saw this movie. If you go to the movies, occasionally, you saw this movie. If you weren't trap in a bubble or dead you should have seen this movie. This is was the final installment??? God I hope not, of the Star Wars Saga. I have to say thaat Lucas pulled it off, barely but he did. I hated episode I and that is hard to say. I loved Episode II but I didn't move me like I hoped it would. But somehow, someway, Episode III managed to tie up all the lose ends. It felt finished. Yes there are faults in the movie, and I do disagree with decisions Lucas made, but overall this movie lived up to the hype and my expectations as a SW fanatic.

While I'm on a roll, I would like to share my worst movie of the year.

The Ring Two.

Boy did this movie suck balls, jeez. Can you say, rip off. My eyes were bleeding after this cesspool of a film. I should have seen it coming but I didn't. Oh well, you should steer clear of this one at all costs.

My sleeper surprise pick this year was Walk the Line. I'm no fan of Jonny Cash but this was a good picture with great acting.

Well thats wraps up 2005. I hope you enjoyed this years movies. I can't wait for 2006. Can you say X-men III?
