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.

2. Children Of Men (2006) (Dir. Alfonso Cuaron)

Recommended Videos

In crafting a futuristic Britain in which there are no children (and no children are being born worldwide), Alfonso Cuaron transformed his film into a masterpiece the moment he decide to focus on the attention to detail. Because Children of Men‘s world is so fully-realised and so believable that it’s like looking directly into the future. There are political and theological themes running through the core of Children of Men that add to its credentials as a picture of weight, but as an exercise in modern movie-making, action cinema, and technical innovation, it’s an accomplished masterpiece.
