2008 Movies... Dramas

In 2008 I saw 6 dramas and I will add the one thriller I saw this year. I saw three very strong movies in Slumdog Millionaire, In Bruges, and The visitor and choosing ratings is difficult. I also saw a couple of very dark but interesting movies in Teeth and Blindness. These last two push the viewer to accept really dark worlds and do not necessarily fit perfectly into the drama category. This is often the case with challenging material so on with the ratings.
  1. Slumdog Millionaire (95)
  2. In Bruges (89)
  3. The Visitor (79)
  4. Blindness (75)
  5. Teeth (71)
  6. Miracle at St. Anna (59)
  7. Untraceable (44)
  8. Forever Strong (20)

Forever strong a really way over the top moralistic rugby movie could not even get the Rugby right. Untraceable fell into the thriller trap of characters just making the wrong decision while the villain is too smart.
