I'm not much of a list-maker these days, but I'll say some of the movies that have popped into my head as the one's I've liked the most so far this year. No order.
Beasts of the Southern Wild
Amour
Beyond the Hills (Cristian Mungiu's new movie)
Compliance
Sun Don't Shine
Killer Joe
Eden (I just liked it okay at first, but I keep thinking about it because of a few really powerful moments; I wonder what I'd think if I saw it again...)
Beauty is Embarrassing
Attenberg
Sound of My Voice
Hmm, I saw all those movies at film festivals. I haven't really being going out to the regular movies that much this year. I also don't keep a log of the movies I've seen and I have a terrible memory. It's completely likely that there was something I saw and loved but can't remember right now.

Yeah, I knew that 8/10 of mine were all from Sundance & SXSW. But didn't realize till just now that 5/10 aren't even out yet.
Ghostboy:
Holy shit, have we really been doing this for ten years?

I recently saw two norwegian films - Headhunters and Turn Me On Dammit. Loved both.
Also loved Safety Not Guaranteed.
And Moonrise Kingdom.
Good summer for these kinda counter programming movies; can't say any of them has blown me away but I liked that indie and foreign films have drifted to a place where they're truly alternatives to the studio ones.
