Most people probably won't agree with most of this list or why certain movies made the list. There are one or two on here that many will argue "aren't amazing movies" and no, maybe they aren't, but a movie doesn't have to be "good" or even "enjoyable" to change your life.

Top 20 Movies of 2007:

1) Juno - This is probably the best movie I've seen in the last three years, not just this year. I won't go into at great length why I loved this movie so much but if you want to know, just comment.

2) No Country For Old Men - Not a surprise, really. Amazing movie.

3) Knocked Up - Apatow is an amazing, amazing man. Everytime I watch this movie, I still laugh just as hard as I did the first time. The people that movie embodies, I want to be friends with.

4) Across the Universe - This movie didn't sit well with a lot of people but that affects how I felt very little. I thought for what it was, and what it tried to be, it did a great job... and I'm a sucker for good love stories.

5) Sicko - It may not be the best documentary ever made but, it made me cry, almost the entire way through and made me even more passionate about what I believe in.

6) This is England - One of the few movies this year that I really had trouble figuring out where to place it. It was a great movie, but, I didn't feel moved or affected by it, but based on just the story and how much I liked it, it deserves its spot.

7) Jesus Camp - Again...not the best documentary every made but it changed my life in a lot of ways. If you want me to explain all of that, again comment cause I don't want to type all of that out if nobody is interested in reading it :P

8) Superbad - Again, Apatow is amazing.

9) Breach - Okay so this is clearly not a movie that will ever seen anyone elses top 20 list, maybe a top 100 list, but I felt it was a great movie.

10) The Science of Sleep - Absolutely stunning.

11) The Lives of Others - This movie had me on the edge of my seat almsot the entire way through and I fell in love with the characters.

12) Thin - Most people have probably never even heard of this but when I heard one of my favorite photographers was making a documentary I didn't care the topic, I downloaded it. I've always been fascinated by ED but this movie made me want to go eat 5 whoppers, 3 sides of fries and a huge coke... I think its a movie every girl should watch, honestly.

13) Control - I was never into Joy Division but I liked this movie a lot.

14) Once - The first half of the movie I was a bit bored and even told Andy I didn't get the appeal but when the credits rolled I was like "...Great movie"

15) 28 Weeks Later
16) 300
17) Vacancy
18) Ratatouille
19) Spiderman 3
20) Waitress
