20 Best Movies of 00's Part 3

So many different types of movies to choose from, it's hard to compare certain movies. Some need to be on a list, but you may see some honorable mentions that you think are more worthy of being on the list, but keep in mind it's my attempt at being objective... 10-6

10) Finding Nemo (2003)

It was a hard decision for which Disney Pixar great of the decade gets the honor of being on the list, but for me Finding Nemo gets the slight edge over Monsters, Inc... Why, I have no other reason other than I get more excited to watch Nemo, so that must mean something... The casting on the voices is really perfect as well.


9) Shaun of the Dead (2004)

Genius. That's all there is to say of this movie, the idea (finally a different kind of zombie movie), dialogue, British humor that's funny to everyone for once (other than Trigger Happy). If you haven't seen it yet, then stop reading and go watch it.

8) Star Trek (2009)

I went to see this movie basically because of the trailer alone. Never a star trek fan, but the hype all those years had to be for a reason right? I really enjoyed the plot, and the movie got a huge energy burst around halfway through by a certain awesome actor that's in the previously mentioned movie (I don't want to ruin it, but I feel like I just did).

7) Memento (2000)

Memento nailed the concept of a backwards movie. I guess the only problem with it as with any other film in its genre is re-watching value. If enough time passes between views it's still great, but there's not much I can say for this movie except how come Guy Pearce hasn't been in any other really popular movies. Watch it if you haven't, it's not too long either, so bonus!


6) The Departed (2006)

Martin Scorsese formed a masterpiece here with a star-studded cast who all gave really solid performances. Who hasn't seen this movie, finally a gangster movie for non-Italians. As a common nitpicker of plot flaws, I really enjoyed this plot and idea.
