What have been the best movies of the year 2000?

[Quickfingerz]

My choices:

1. Gladiator <-- Has to be considered among the greatest movies of all time
2. Frequency <-- I'm a family guy
3. X-men <-- Wolverine's role alone puts this movie on this list

Surprice of the year: Blair Witch 2 <-- A sequel(kinda) that's better than the original



What are your choices?

My choice among those you have listed would be Gladiator. I think that &quot;one of the best movies of all time&quot; might be a stretch, but a good film. I think the only Oscar which is pretty much a slam dunk this year will be Best Actress for Wynnona Ryder in &quot;Autumn in New York.&quot; Great performance, and she is so much better an actor than Richard Gere, and outshined him so brightly in that film, that i'm amazed that the performance even works. Plus it's her (overdue) time for this type of recognition of her skills.

Let's see ... The Gladiator , Meet the Parents ( this movie proved that a movie can be good w/o excessive sex or violence.), The Patriot ( I love war movies ), can't really think of any others right now, but I will after this thread get's more replys. (I've seen literally every movie. )

Requiem for a Dream and Meet the Parents are my favorite two. Didn't find Gladiator all that fascinating. Guess I was a little too built up by other people on this board.

saw gladiator and U-571 on the weekend finally
didn't think that much of them, gladiator is too slow and takes too long to get moving, U-571 was alright, but definatly not movie of the year...

dunno...but an awesome movie that came out last year was Half-baked hehehe anyone seen this one?

 

[Static911]

hmm...too many to mention...LOL

I liked Gladiator, but i don't consider them to BE THE BEST OF THE year 2000

Jus waiting for something of Saving Private Ryan Caliber

<edit: spelling mistake>
