[Adeodatus]

In no particular order:

Batman Begins (Year One was better, but thats just being picky.)
Cindrella Man (I didn't think Ron Howard could do it but he did pretty well.)
Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants (Why did I like this flick? Am I macho enough to admit?)
Upside of Anger (Costner was better than I thought he would be.)
Kung Fu Hustle (Stephen Chow is my hero, right under Sammo Hung.)
Howl's Moving Castle (Ghibli does it again.)

There still seem to be a few decent flicks around the corner too, but for movies 2005 is looking a bit lackluster.

Sin City
Revenge of the Sith

Because they're the only movies I've seen in the theater this year.
