Review of 2006 films

Tis the time of year to look back and review.

So what about this year's selection of films?

It only includes the ones I've seen at the cinema or in planes. The better ones - in my opinion - are in larger text at the top, the worse ones in increasingly tiny font size as you go down. Feel free to comment if you strongly disagree.

The best: 13 (Tzameti), Children of Men, Pan's Labyrinth

The worst: Little Fish, A Scanner Darkly, Stormbreaker

> "plays with the form"

Yeah - I think that was my problem with the film. It brilliantly played with the form. But that was it. The story wasn't great behind it. So it scored highly in the technical/filmatic stakes, but was cancelled out by being forgettable otherwise.

My Super Ex-Girlfriend - on the other hand looked like it would be rubbish, but instead had quite a nifty story, and was well told.

I loved Pan's Labyrinth. It's such an imaginative film.
I also enjoyed My Super ex-girlfriend for different reasons
