A listing of the best reviewed films of the year, according to MCN.
A listing of the best reviewed films of the year, according to MCN.
Moving up due to appearing on 2011 lists are Secret Sunshine, The Illusionist, The Strange Case of Angelica, Guy and Madeline on a Park Bench, World on a Wire and And Everything is Going Fine.
To avoid repeated films from showing in multiple years I have personally re-adjusted the lists 2005-2010 (you can view them all on my page). The way it works is, this site uses a point system of giving a voted number 1 film 10 points, voted number 2 film 9 points and so forth until voted number 10 receives 1 point. The highest pointed film is number 1 of the year and so forth, but for films that appear on previous or future years lists of their release date, they usually appear low on each year, so instead of allowing something like Mother to be on 2009 and 2010 I have added up the accumlative points (138.5) to place it as number 20 for 2010 (its release date in the US). This system also allows more films that would normally not make the 100 to get in (in this case, the bottom three). So if any films look like they appear higher than they should it is because some critics included them on 2009 lists. Likewise, any films that appeared on 2010 lists that were 2009 releases, I added up their points to transfer over to the 2009 chart (Liverpool, A Town Called Panice, etc.) Sometimes the added points do not make the films budge (A Prophet), but in a lot of cases they do (Last Train Home, Enter the Void). Hope this makes sense. Also, The Company Men will be in 2011 with whatever points it earns from 2010 and 2011. Hope this makes sense!
