Top 10 – 2012 Films Missed
Last year I done a Top 10 list of the films that I missed at the cinema before doing my top 10 best and worst of 2012. I found this a good thing to highlight that I only have select films to include in those two lists. You can see the films I have seen at the cinema this year here. I only include actual 2012 films, so my best film list will probably be out in February, I know a lot of people do the lists based on what they have seen but after not doing that when starting my blog I have to follow on with the system I have ended up with!
Anyway here comes my list of my top 10 films I missed (and not happy about) after reading a lot of hype over these films. Many different reasons for not getting to see these films include not having the time to get to the cinema, the cinema only having the film out for a limited time (a week) or that they didn’t actually get released at my cinema at all.
I have used fellow bloggers Top 10 films of 2012 lists to help figure out which films I should have really seen as well!
Top 10 – Worst Films of 2012
Some of the films to put in this list are pretty easy choices due to dislking or in some cases hating the film. So I pick the films I figured are the worst I saw in 2012. Please remember that these are the films I watched in 2012. So I didn’t get to see everything in 2012, but these are my picks, for many different reasons! I think another thing to mention about the 10 films I have picked on this list is that whilst being in the cinema and watching them I was wondering how much longer they were going on for and wanting them to be finished. Probably one of the worst things you can say about a film is that you wish it was over!
Top 10 – Best 2012 Films
The pick of the 2012 films I have seen. Remember this is the list of films I have seen at the cinema! 2012 for me seemed to be a very strange year for film, as I don’t feel like I managed to see many films during the year or at the very least missed loads of films. But I will try to give reasons why the 10 films which are in this list have made the list!
This Means War (2012) Review

The massive worldwide musical hit takes to the big screen in a massive production with a fantastic cast.
