10. The Butler
This was actually a surprise... I wasn't expecting to enjoy this movie as much as I did! It's a great story of the struggle African Americans in America had, and how many of them were slaves. It was heart breaking and joyful! It was also great acting!! I was always engaged!
9. Monsters University
I personally enjoyed Monsters University but was disappointed that it didn't receive any Golden Globe Nominations but that isn't what defines a movie! Over all this was a fun time and a very well done prequel to the beloved Monsters Inc.
8. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire
Another sequel in 2013 Catching Fire was epic! Action packed, suspenseful, exciting!! They did a great job in adapting this movie! I love the way they dip lay all of the districts and the poverty going on in the world! It was well done and much better then first!
7. Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues
Anchorman 2 was a great time no doubt about it! It made me laugh harder then I have in a long time! It's a silly stupid movie that you can't not laugh at. The funniest parts are the little things you see in the background that add some comic relief!
6. Saving Mr. Banks
Saving Mr. Banks was a very original story. This is probably the first time I've seen a movie based on someone getting the rights to make a movie! Very well done and the acting was absolutely amazing! Emma Thompson was a great P. L. Travers, and Tom Hanks pulled off a great Walt Disney.
5. Gravity
Gravity had spectacular visuals, camera angles and filming tactics! The movie itself took place mostly in space and only one scene was shot on earth ( so to speak ) Sandra Bullock was an amazing actress in this movie and I believe she is worthy of some wins! Also a very original movie!
4. Iron Man 3
For the next two I'm going to be somewhat fanboy... Iron Man 3 was a great way to wrap up the 'Iron Man' trilogy. Not as great as the first but not as disappointing as Iron Man 2. This was the first movie after 'The Avengers' and it is taking a toll on Tony. It was action packed, fun and exciting! Well done Shane Black!
3.Thor: The Dark World
The sequel to 'Thor' and 'The Avengers' we see Thor and he is very mature! He is preparing to be king an isn't a foolish child anymore. We do see old such as Jane and Loki with Erik Selvig. For Loki, he was the villain in 'The Avengers' and you can't not love him! The movie was fun and entertaining! Not the greatest Marvle movie but it wasn't a dissapointment!
2. Star Trek Into Darkness
I absolutely loved this movie!! I personally really enjoy the Star Trek series and this was a great sequel!! JJ Abrams does a great job with these movies!! Then there's Benedict Cumberpatch who made an amazing Khan! I just can't get over how much I enjoyed this movie!!
1. The Hobbit: the Desolation of Smaug
Yes this is my all time favourite movie of 2013! I am an enormous fan of The Lord of the Rings and they are my favourite movies so there's no way I couldn't love this movie! The first was a bit of a disappointment but this movie was just amazing!! The best thing was Smaug also played by Benedict Cumberbatch and Smaug was the best dragon in movie history!! This is very worthy of my #1 movie of 2013!!
