Director: Gareth Edwards | Stars: Scoot McNairy, Whitney Able, Mario Zuniga Benavides, Annalee Jefferies

Votes: 97,564 | Gross: $0.24M

Faltou-lhe unhas para algumas coisas importantes, como os diálogos entre o casalinho e alguma profundidade na crítica social, mas fora isso uma belíssima surpresa.

3. Iron Man (2008)

PG-13 | 126 min | Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi

79 Metascore

Highly overrated... 8-)

4. Citizen Kane (1941)

PG | 119 min | Drama, Mystery

100 Metascore

Following the death of publishing tycoon Charles Foster Kane, reporters scramble to uncover the meaning of his final utterance: 'Rosebud.'

Director: Orson Welles | Stars: Orson Welles, Joseph Cotten, Dorothy Comingore, Agnes Moorehead

Votes: 465,509 | Gross: $1.59M

Não é overrated 8-)

Absolutamente revolucionário para a época em que foi feito. E acabei de ler que, quando perguntaram a Welles "where he got the confidence from as a first-time director to direct a film so radically different from contemporary cinema, he responded, "[From] ignorance...sheer ignorance. There is no confidence to equal it. It's only when you know something about a profession that you are timid or careful."

5. Primer (2004)

PG-13 | 77 min | Drama, Sci-Fi, Thriller

68 Metascore

Four friends/fledgling entrepreneurs, knowing that there's something bigger and more innovative than the different error-checking devices they've built, wrestle over their new invention.

Director: Shane Carruth | Stars: Shane Carruth, David Sullivan, Casey Gooden, Anand Upadhyaya

Votes: 114,008 | Gross: $0.42M

Olha que bela surpresa.

6. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011)

R | 158 min | Crime, Drama, Mystery

71 Metascore

Journalist Mikael Blomkvist is aided in his search for a woman who has been missing for 40 years by young computer hacker Lisbeth Salander.

Director: David Fincher | Stars: Daniel Craig, Rooney Mara, Christopher Plummer, Stellan Skarsgård

Votes: 494,354 | Gross: $102.52M

Desta vez o Fincher é só competente? Sim, talvez, mas a competência do Fincher está uma pilha de pontos acima do resto dos mortais. Ah, e é muito bom ver o Daniel Craig a fazer outra personagem que não seja o Daniel Craig :)

7. Carnage (2011)

R | 80 min | Comedy, Drama

61 Metascore

Two pairs of parents hold a cordial meeting after their sons are involved in a fight, though as their time together progresses, increasingly childish behavior throws the discussion into chaos.

Director: Roman Polanski | Stars: Jodie Foster, Kate Winslet, Christoph Waltz, John C. Reilly

Votes: 132,923 | Gross: $2.55M

Olha, fui ver isto e até me esqueci. É um filme sem assinatura, acompanhado de overacting da Foster, mas fora isso vê-se muito bem.

8. Hugo (2011)

PG | 126 min | Adventure, Drama, Family

83 Metascore

In 1931 Paris, an orphan living in the walls of a train station gets wrapped up in a mystery involving his late father and an automaton.

Director: Martin Scorsese | Stars: Asa Butterfield, Chloë Grace Moretz, Christopher Lee, Ben Kingsley

Votes: 336,603 | Gross: $73.86M

Este ano está tudo doido, só pode. Em Hugo a questão não é "o filme tomar o seu tempo para se deixar acontecer" (eu não tenho nada contra filmes lentos ou longos, caraças!), é uma questão do ritmo nunca bater certo com a narrativa, de estar povoado de momentos de representação constrangedores e andar cheio de tiques melodramáticos onde eles não fazem sentido. Hugo é uma belíssima história, é mesmo, mas Scorsese parece um amador a realizá-la, um caloiro da escola de cinema. E é pena.

9. War Horse (2011)

PG-13 | 146 min | Action, Adventure, Drama

72 Metascore

A young farm boy enlists to serve in World War I after his beloved horse is sold to the cavalry. His hopeful journey takes him out of England and onto the front lines as the war rages on.

Director: Steven Spielberg | Stars: Jeremy Irvine, Emily Watson, David Thewlis, Benedict Cumberbatch

Votes: 165,477 | Gross: $79.88M

O Spielgerg já me habituou há muito a finais melosos, piegas e insuportáveis. O que nunca me tinha feito era dar-me um filme meloso, piegas e insuportável do início ao fim. E aquilo tem 147 minutos, arre.

10. The Help (2011)

PG-13 | 146 min | Drama

62 Metascore

Director: Tate Taylor | Stars: Viola Davis, Emma Stone, Octavia Spencer, Bryce Dallas Howard

Votes: 492,016 | Gross: $169.71M

E pronto, hoje é o Dia da Mulher e isto é um filme de gaja(s) :)

11. The Funeral (1996)

R | 99 min | Crime, Drama

After the funeral of one of their own, a criminal family decides to embark on an emotionally unnerving journey in an attempt to exact bloody revenge.

Director: Abel Ferrara | Stars: Christopher Walken, Chris Penn, Annabella Sciorra, Isabella Rossellini

Votes: 9,392 | Gross: $1.23M

Abel Ferrara segue para a lista de coisas que se descobrem em ciclos de cinema gratuitos. Seco, curto e muito bem feito.

12. House of Tolerance (2011)

Not Rated | 122 min | Drama

75 Metascore

At an elegant Parisian bordello at the dawn of the 20th century exists a cloistered world of pleasure, pain, hope, rivalries--and, most of all, slavery.

Director: Bertrand Bonello | Stars: Noémie Lvovsky, Hafsia Herzi, Céline Sallette, Jasmine Trinca

Votes: 7,774 | Gross: $0.02M

Estava a ser uma espécie de carta de afectos, duro, mas ternurento, honesto e muito belo. Mas depois vieram aqueles dois minutos finais deitar cá para fora um moralismo excessivo que habitualmente me irrita. Mas recomenda-se, sim.

13. 'R Xmas (2001)

R | 85 min | Crime, Drama, Thriller

55 Metascore

A New York drug dealer is kidnapped, and his wife must try to come up with the money and drugs to free him from his abductors before Christmas.

Votes: 1,629 | Gross: $0.00M

Girinho, mas pouco mais que isso.

Votes: 527,979 | Gross: $209.40M

Cinema pipoca com algum nível. Porreiro de ver enquanto se montam móveis do Ikea.

17. Tabu (I) (2012)

Not Rated | 118 min | Drama, Romance

78 Metascore

Director: Miguel Gomes | Stars: Telmo Churro, Miguel Gomes, Hortêncílio Aquina, Américo Mota

Votes: 7,418

A primeira parte sofre um pouco da maldição do "cinema português com actores de teatro português" (coisa que desaparece na segunda parte porque não há diálogos), mas, fora isso, mantenho o Miguel Gomes no meu pódio particular.

18. Salmon Fishing in the Yemen (2011)

PG-13 | 107 min | Comedy, Drama, Romance

64 Metascore

Director: Ridley Scott | Stars: Noomi Rapace, Logan Marshall-Green, Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron

Votes: 643,503 | Gross: $126.48M

Ok, a verdade é esta e vou partilhá-la connvosco. Eu não sou um dos que sente a falta do Ridley Scott (RS) do Alien e do Blade Runner, porque sei de fonte segura que ele nunca existiu. De facto, esses dois filmes foram realizados por Deus Nosso Senhor, e o RS era apenas o tipo com os intestinos mais a jeito quando Ele decidiu fazer os filmes. O pior é que ninguém contou isto ao pobre do RS, e depois foi vê-lo a achar-se bom realizador desastre após desastre. Ora, alguém lho devia ter dito no momento em que ele se lembrou de voltar à carga com a saga do belo monstro, mas não, manteve-se a chachada, e pronto, só podia ter dado nisto. Posto isto, fica a bela cena final do belo monstro a gritar para a câmara como, provavelmente, uma das mais constrangedoras de 2012 (digo 2012 para ser simpático). Beijinhos a todos.

21. The Invention of Lying (2009)
