And Then I Woke Up: The Ten Best Films Of The Noughties

Join us in our decade-based film retrospective, as we delve backwards all the way from 2009 to 1910. Most decade-based best movie lists grant you a whooping 50-100 entries, which makes perfect sense given all the years you have to take into consideration. But what if you were defining a decade in just ten films? Showcasing the very best of its cinematic offerings? Which movies would you recommend to somebody who might only watch ten movies from a given decade? First off, it's the Noughties.

8. The Incredibles (2004) (Dir. Brad Bird)

Recommended Videos

The Incredibles is undoubtedly one of most entertaining animated films ever made, especially if you’re an adult with a grasp on nerdy popular culture. Brad Bird, writer, director and Pixar regular, firstly uses his movie as a portrait of modern family life, and cleverly assigns his characters superpowers that match their personalities and situations. Yet it never feels forced, the characters are genuine, and the story is so tightly spun that there’s barely a moment to breath.

The action sequences are phenomenal, yes, but The Incredibles manages so much more than explosions and laser beams: it is perhaps the best superhero film ever made because it doubles over as one of cinema’s best stories about the family unit.
