My Top 10 (+)

10. Little Miss Sunshine
9. Silver Linings Playbook
8. I Heart Huckabees
7. Fight Club
6. The Dark Knight
5. Garden State
4. Jerry McGuire

3.5 The Royal Tennenbaums (This is an edit...I left this one out originally...forgot about it)
3. The Departed
2. Love Actually
1. Sleepy Hollow

 
I will talk about "Sleepy Hollow."  I've loved this movie since I was 13.  I love a good mystery, and this is a wonderful "whodunit." Johnny Depp was at his peak of comedic and dramatic brilliance.  The setting is beautiful, albeit in a dark and dreary 1799 New England town.  Tim Burton does not hesitate to throw as much blood at Johnny Depp at possible, so it is a bit gorey.  This is a liberal adaptation of the famous "Sleepy Hollow," story, but it is great.
