I thought about writing a special blurb for each of these, sort of a justification or an “in defense of”, pointing out the technical merits of as to why each film was included. But they all came out like mini-reviews of the flicks. And I didn’t want that. Then I remembered what this and every list like it is… opinion. Rarely, if ever, does actual technical merit come into play when a critic, or a panel of critics come up with the “10 best” of anything. So I said fuck it. Write the list, provide some good clips (all courtesy youtube.com) and have people see for themselves why I thought the film was particularly deserving of the 10 best of this current decade.
