i think i am seeing "Inglourious Basterds" today so i am going to reserve judgment, but so far in sheer entertainment value nothing has exceeded "Star Trek". favorite of the summer and probably year thus far.

A month ago I would have said Star Trek, but after District 9 this is going to be a hard choice....

So far (no particular order)...

District 9
Moon
Up
The Hurt Locker
Away We Go

Of all I've seen, I'd rank them as follows:

Inglourious Basterds
Up!
The Hangover
Drag Me To Hell
Star Trek
Bruno
Harry Potter
Angels & Demons
.

Wolverine


I haven't seen District 9, 500 Days of Summer, or The Hurt Locker yet.

#1 would definitely be Inglourious Basterds
#2 is Funny People
These are also my two favorite films of the year so far.

Of those I've seen...

Just for pure entertainment value and looking forward to revisiting on DVD:

Star Trek
The Hangover
The Ugly Truth----One of the very few who actually loved this movie and thought it was fricking hysterical.

The were a few that I liked, but wouldn't call them the best of Summer 2009.

Absolutely entertained and loved these:
Inglorious Basterds
District 9
The Hangover

Out of everything listed, probably The Hangover.

UP came close, and I think its better than District 9

I haven't seen UP, but have heard great things. I'll check it out on DVD.

District 9 was solid but even with the annoying talking dogs, I have to give the edge to Up.

I still haven't seen Inglorious Basterds but for me, Tarantino hasn't done anything I've enjoyed since Pulp Fiction.

The best of 2009 so far is clearly District 9 (the only movie this year that I can't wait to get on Blu-Ray).

93% of the people here clearly disagree.

i just saw Inglourious Basterds and that just nudges Star Trek for the top spot right now, though i do think ST has more replayability. i think i am going to see District 9 early next week so i will wait to vote then. but, wow! did i love IB!

All I can say is anyone voting who hasn't seen INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS needs to get their ass to a theatre this weekend... honestly. And Corvin, I took a friend who HATES Tarantino (and only moderately tolerates Pulp Fiction) and they thought it was fantastic.

Inglorious Basterds
Star Trek
District 9
Public Enemies
The Hurt Locker
The Hangover
Fast and Furious (I liked it)
Drag Me to Hell
Angels and Demons


didn't get to see Funny People, which I really wanted to. It only played here for two weeks. Also wanted to see 500 Days of Summer.
