Is that a bad thing? I quite liked the fact that every English language distributor had managed to hide (or play down) that element of the film. It made a change from films that give the entire plot line away in the trailer...

It was initially disappointment as it wasn't in anyway the film I was expecting but I'll probably just have to watch it again.

[SilverCrown]

The Avengers by far for me.

dredd, it was action action action awesome bass heavy sound track its the only film this year i have wanted to watch multiple times

[rachymac]

I loved The Dark Knight Rises, but I don't think it was the best of the trilogy. Still one of the best movies I've seen this year, though.

Favourite is The Perks of Being a Wallflower, though I also loved Skyfall, The Hunger Games, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close.... Haven't seen Silver Linings Playbook or Looper yet - think they could make it onto the list too.

[Knightfall]

looper/ end of watch

Dredd was definitely the biggest surprise, great movie. TDKR gets my vote though

I loved this aspect of the film, I walked into the cinema and was completely thrown and engrossed from the beginning.

I enjoy being taken on a ride, a journey through a story where at the end i want to watch it again to see what i might have missed and Looper did this for me in much the same way The Usual Suspects and The Sixth Sense did.

I guess im bored with flashy effects and meaningless fight sequences and was yearning for something even slightly less braindead at the time

Dredd was brilliant from start to finish, I would not be upset in the slightest if this was the most popular film of 2012.

Unfortunately it only appeals to a limited audience compared to films like Skyfall.

its a pity it didnt make back its production costs so a sequel is unlikely

[Blossom85]

The Avengers

I agree as I really enjoyed Dredd. It really took me by surprise and I am gutted that it is unlikely they will make any further movies.

If I had to choose, I'd say Silver Linings Playbook

Are we the same person?

[Dizzle]

Looper gets my vote.

[nck-nck]

I think it's got to be Dredd for me too, though Chronicle was a terrific surprise at the start of the year

Prometheus, DKR and CITW were all brutal disappointments ( though prometheus had sean harris in a tight spacesuit so it wasn't all bad)

[cunningham1471]

The Life of Pi was easily the best film of 2012 for me. Everything else was very much seen it all before. Bond was more or less Bond, no surprises and The Avengers was like every other Marvel superhero film. Spiderman was a mess. The Hunger Games was very good, but not brilliant.

[muggins14]

The two movies I enjoyed most that were released in 2012 are:

The Giant Mechanical Man &
Hope Springs

[Starry Eyed]

The Dark Knight Rises
The Avengers
Skyfall
The Hunger Games

I still have many more to catch up on though. Lots of very interesting looking stuff came out last year.

Yes I must admit I haven't watched many 'blockbusters' from last year as yet. Every time I go to watch one, I end up finding something less mainstream and more appealing to my mood at the time!

I especially want to see:

The Cabin in the Woods
The Woman in Black
The Amazing Spider-Man
House at the End of the Street
Prometheus
Rise of the Guardians
People Like Us

...and more. I also forgot to include Snow White and the Huntsman in my other list. I thought it was absolutely gorgeous and I am in the apparent minority who really like Kristen Stewart as an actress.

[lil lexie]

Ted was the only film I actually enjoyed from 2012.

[Yuffie]

My Top 4

The Dark Knight Rises

The Hobbit
The Avengers
Skyfall

[B-612]

Silver Linings Playbook
