My Top Ten Movies of 2014

Here we are again, at the end of a year. My personal life has had some crazy ups and downs, and films were a big part of that. Here's a ranking, and this list is by what i personally liked more, and if something major isn't on here, I likely haven't experienced it sorry but hopefully
sooner than later.  Without further ado:



Top 10 2014 Films:

1.) Birdman, for its amazing acting and mind blowing directing/production
-
2.) Gone Girl, for one of the biggest twists and performance surprises in recent memory and a insanely gripping plot
-
3.) Guardians of the Galaxy, for showing that the Marvel Cinematic Universe can be amazing even when it's not on Earth and being the best "Star Wars" since the OT
-
4.) Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, for some deep emotions, cool actions and monkey mania
-
5.) Captain America: The Winter Soldier, for showing what a traditional superhero film can be and offering amazing pacing/action
-
6.) Interstellar, for amazing visuals and music with a ponderous plot that make one feels as if they went to space themselves
-
7.) The Hobbit : The Battle of the Five Armies, for being a epic end to the Tolkein movieverse with action and emotion right up there with the best ones in the franchise
-
8.) The Lego Movie, for showing that everything is awesome when you're living the dream/ Morgan Freeman and Bionicle in the same film
-
(Her would be a #9 but was released technically at first in 2013)
-
9.) Snowpiercer (this was too but was in Korean before its 2014 release), for a fantasticly unique world/ art design , sweet action, and even some feels
-
10.) X-Men : The Days of Future Past, by being a fantastic continuation to the old/new cast storylines and offering tantalizing possibilites for the future
