My Top Ten Movies of 2002

Probably the weakest of the trilogy though still amazing. It suffers with having no real beginning or end. Though the battle of Helm's Deep is outstanding.

The second HP adventure is a little like an episode of Scooby Doo though is still great entertainment and Kenneth Branagh is great as Gilderoy Lockhart.

Spider-man's first outing is a visual treat with Tobey Maguire taking on the role of Peter Parker perfectly. Kirsten Dunst and Willem Dafoe offer excellent support.

Hugh Grant plays against type in this fun movie. The always brilliant Toni Collette puts in an terrific performance. Funny and emotional.

An involving drama with great performances from Judi Dench, Jim Broadbent, Kate Winslet and Hugh Bonneville. The ending is very emotional.

A fantastic film that was a overlooked on its release. The spiders are creepy especially the jumping ones!!

Steve Coogan delivers a terrific performance as Tony Wilson in this look at the Manchester music scene. Coogan (who apparentley based his character Alan Partridge on Wilson) is well suited to this part, serving as part narrator to what is going on. Teaming up with director Michael Winterbottom they produce an original and sometimes gritty film. A great supporting cast and soundtrack that includes Joy Division, Happy Mondays and New Order make this a good watch.

Reese Witherspoon plays a successful New Yourk fashion designer who gets engaged to the mayor's son but first she has to go back to Alabama to get divorced from her childhood sweetheart. Warm hearted fun.

A weird and wonderful drama with Jake Glyenhaal as a teen who is told by a giant rabbit that the world is going to end. A little confusing though it makes sense the more you watch it.

A tense thriller with Michael Douglas that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
