27.07.09 # Best Movies # 297 Comments10. A Nightmare On Elm Street
Starring: Jackie Earle Haley
Director: Samuel Bayer
Release Date: 16th April 2010
Freddy Krueger, the dream-dwelling killer first brought to cinema screens in 1984, is back. But this time actor Robert Englund is going to be watching it in the cinema with the rest of us. Exec-producer Michael Bay is hitting the Batman Begins/Star Trek reboot button in an effort to restart the horror franchise as he did with Texas Chainsaw Massacre. There’s only one reason this has ranked so highly on our list – the casting of Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy. He was terrific as Rorschach in Watchmen. But can he deliver? Knife-fingers are crossed.
9. Clash Of The Titans
Starring: Sam Worthington, Gemma Arterton, Liam Neeson, Ralph Fiennes
Director: Louis Letterier
Release Date: 2nd April 2010
The highest remake on the list, Clash of the Titans takes the most fondly remembered sword and sandal classic to showcase Ray Harryhausen’s stop-motion creatures and re-imagines it for the CGI generation. Director Louis Letterier should be somewhat familiar with intense action and CG smackdowns thanks to his prior work on The Incredible Hulk and The Transporter franchises. Up and coming actors Sam Worthington (Terminator: Salvation, Avatar) and Gemma Arterton (Quantum of Solace, Prince of Persia) take on the roles of Perseus and Io, whilst veterans Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes take on the roles of Zeus and Hades. It will be interesting to see how the Olympian elements of the story are handled, as the gods have been notably absent from most recent sword and sandal flicks like Troy.
8. Ridley Scott’s Robin Hood
Starring: Russell Crowe, Cate Blanchett
Director: Ridley Scott
Release Date: 14th May 2010
Ridley Scott is a living legend. The mastermind behind Alien, Blade Runner and Gladiator returns to roughly the period of time in which his criminally underrated Crusades movie Kingdom of Heaven took place and reunites with frequent collaborator Russell Crowe. So he should be in his comfort zone and ready to deliver a memorable take on the oft filmed Robin Hood legend, presumably without incongruous accents, talking foxes or men in tights.
7. The Expendables
Starring: Sylvester Stallone, Jet Li, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Steve Austin, Mickey Rourke
Director: Sylvester Stallone
Release Date: 13th August 2010
Sly Stallone wants to go out in a blaze of gory. Sorry, typo, blaze of glory. Actually, they’re both right. The Expendables could well be the throwback action movie that dreams are made of. With a cast list that reads like someone just reading names off of their action movie DVD collection, fans of the genre are getting spoilt rotten.
6. Shutter Island
Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio, Mark Ruffalo, Ben Kingsley, Max von Sydow
Director: Martin Scorsese
Release Date: 19th February 2010
It’s 1954 and two U.S. Marshals (DiCaprio and Ruffalo), arrive at an institution for the criminally insane on an isolated island in Boston Harbor. They are investigating the disappearance of a patient, whom the head psychiatrist (Kingsley) claims was institutionalised after drowning her three children. Soon it appears there is a conspiracy and the Marshals’ own lives may be in danger. Expect director Scorsese to master the atmosphere and deliver the psychological thrills, but be warned, the novel it’s based on is said to have a weak ending.
I tried to leave comments for 2010 movies releases but it never goes through. I think this list of films is great. I look forward to Tron Legacy, Clash Of The Titans, The Expendables, Iron Man 2. hope this goes through.
I think the A-Team will be cool especialy with Liam Neeson.
inception was hands down the best movie ive seen in a long long time
DUDE! deffinatly agree, was a great movie, one of few that had me thinking often enough to keep me interested till the end
My top 2010 movies would be:
5. Shutter Island
4. Hot Tub Time Machine
3. Toy Story 3
2. Kick-Ass
1. Inception
yep so right. Inception is the best movie of 2010, and all time
You lost all credibility when you listed Hot Tub Time Machine…..worst movie ever.
I completely agree……i’venever watched such a vulgar film!!
Jim Carrey as Murdoch in the A-Team would kick ass.
Well now that explains why the movie flopped!
hahaha
the books were the best but the movie wrecked them
what are you talking about?
I think that you definately need to have Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief in there. Some people are saying it might overcome the Harry Potter movie in 2010. How impossible that seems, yet it might happen.=)
I think the best 2010 movies order should go like this:
4.Iron Man 2
3.Robin Hood
2.Clash of the Titans
1.Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief=)
I just can’t wait for The Lightning Thief to come out!!! I’ve read every book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, and I know each of them from front to back!!!!
percy jackson and the lightening thief is awful!!
lol what are u three? that was possibly one of the worst book series ive ever laid eyes on next to Twilight. ooh and the movie sucked too
r u serious? percy jackson and the olypains was the best movie and books ever made.i cant wait until the next one comes out(if it even does.)
I’m so excited for these movies! 2010 here we come!

my top 5 movies coming out in 2010:
5. alice in wonderland
4. the last airbender
3. iron man 2
2. a nightmare on elm street (i know, i know…)
1. inception
my opinion on what Inception is going to be about is something along the lines of “one flew over the cuckoo’s nest” or something that has too do with an asylum or generally crazy people…
i m so excited for these movies
I’m excited for Toy Story 3. I gre up the first film and now, at seventeen, I can enjoy a movie I’ve waited a long time to see.
Hee, hee. These are awsome! My top 2010 movie picks are…
5.Alice in Wonderland
4.Robin Hood
3.Avatar
2.Iron Man
1.Toy Story 3
I love Harry Potter, but I do agree there has been our share of animal and fantasy movies these days.
Thank goodness for Pixar.
what the..you forgot Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The lightning Thief..it will be way bigger than #1 whatever it is
my ideas
1. Harry Potter & The Half Blood Prince Part A
2. (some Movie)
3. Toy Story 3
4. Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief
5. Nightmare on eLM Street
6. (Some Movie)
7. Despicable Me
SOME OTHER MOVIES
