I think these are all of the films I've seen from 2005.

Cinderella Man: 5/5. Say what you will about Russell Crowe, he rocks in this film. Gets rid of the bad aura of the boxing films after Rocky IV and V.

Star Wars: 5. Best one since ESB.

Serenity: 4.9/5. Great, but lacked some of the "magic" of the series.

Ong Bak: 4.5/5. Tony Ja pwns joo.

The Aviator: 4.5/5. Just great.

Mr and Mrs Smith: 4/5. Like True Lies, action and humour kick arse in a domestic setting.

House of Flying Daggers: 4/5. Great spectacle.

Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy: 4/5. Fun fun fun.

Sin City: 4/5. Again, a great spectacle. Though parts of it were certainly a bit dull.

Batman Begins: 4/5. Made me forget all about everything from Batman Forever afterwards.

The 40 Year Old Virgin: 4/5. Fun fun fun.

War of The Worlds: 3.8/5. Damn irritating kids. Cool aliens though.

Harry Potter 4: 3.5/5. Fun film, needed substance.

Friday Night Lights: 3.5/5. Good, but felt like it lacked a little something that I couldn't figure out. Maybe it's the fact I'm a world away.

Hitch: 3.5/5. Light romcom fun, Will Smith certainly has the charm to do this.

Wedding Crashers: 3.5/5. More fun from the Stiller/Wilson/Vaughn/Ferrell camp of films.

Dukes of Hazzard: 3/5. Fun film, saw it twice.

Fantastic Four: 3/5. Slow and uninteresting. Though Michael Chiklis as the Thing was cool.

Constantine: 3/5. Neo fights demons.

Kingdom of Heaven: 2.5/5. Sucky ass editing really ruined it.

Sahara: 2.5/5. Extreme meh.

Unleashed: 2/5. Not enough ass kicking for a Jet Li film.

Robots: 2/5. I only saw it because the posters said it had the Ep3 preview.

Narnia: 2/5. Slow and uninteresting.

Alexander: 0.5/5. Don't see it. Don't even use the DVD as a coaster. Burn it, piss on the ashes and get a priest to ward away the shitty evil. Then lock the remnants in a box and shoot it into space.

That we dying younger hiding from the police man over there
Just for breathing in the air they wanna leave me in the chair
Electric shocking body rocking beat streeting me to death"

I think its a average movie especially compared to ice age or shrek. The film feels like a expanded Bugs Bunny cartoon.
saw it last night and I have to agree.

Forgot about this one. It was ok. Casting Orlando Bloom was a poor choice tough
