I don't do top tens anymore. I've realized I'm always pulling a muscle every year to think of 10 or narrow it down to 10 each year and then rank them...so now I'm just going to list however many great films there may be just in no order...it's a lot easier. Like, 2001 didn't have that many great movies so it would benefit from my new idea. As would 2002, which had more than 10 great films.

So, here are the best films of 2001 imo....

the royal tenenbaums
ocean's eleven
vanilla sky
the man who wasn't there
moulin rouge (maybe)
amelie

tried to watch this a little while back but couldn't sit through it. I'm curious to know what you or anyone found so interesting about it.

I really liked it.  It had a real retro feel, but sometimes it felt a little pushed.  

The scene where Gangster #1 is torturing another guy is amazing.  I guess you didn't make it that far.  

See it for Paul Bettany, not Malcolm McDowell.
