[tps_title]Melissa Berne’s Top 10 Movies of 2014:[/tps_title]
Disclaimer: I haven’t seen The Imitation Game, Selma, St. Vincent, A Most Violent Year, Whiplash, How To Train Your Dragon 2, Big Eyes, The Boxtrolls, The Judge or Inherent Vice yet.
1. Gone Girl
I don’t have enough words. The cinematography. The music. The acting. All were brilliant! Rosamund Pike is a revelation and I can’t wait to see what she does next. Whether people liked it or not, it spawned so many think pieces and everyone couldn’t stop talking about it. For me, it’s an entertaining film containing smart and funny satire and this year’s best casted film.
2. Obvious Child
I saw it twice in one week! Jenny Slate needs to be everywhere.
3. Interstellar
This movie got my neurons firing! And I loved it.
4. 22 Jump Street
I laughed my ass off!!
5. The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1
THG continues to show off its sophistication amongst other YA movies with this 3rd movie. Although not as good as Catching Fire, they pulled off a good, substantial film.
6. Divergent
Because THEO JAMES.

7. The LEGO Movie
I loved the creativity and I was impressed with the animation. It entertained me and I’m not a LEGO fangirl.
8. The Amazing Spider-Man 2
An improvement from the first; Andrew and Emma are really great in their parts.
9. The Theory of Everything
Because Felicity Jones. Everyone has a hard-on for Eddie, but I was really impressed with how Felicity can show her determination with no words.
10. Wild
On one hand it made me feel inspired to go on a long ass hike, too. On the other hand, I’m like HELL NO. Regardless, I liked the storytelling.
