Best of the Decade 2000-2009

Movieweb.com compiled a list of the “Best Films of the Decade (2000-2009).” The list included both audience pick and critics pick.

Aught Blog Critic’s Pick for 2005? The Forty Year Old Virgin.
Directed by Judd Apatow, this R rated comedy went on to earn $109 million at the box office. With the PG-13 rating dominating the early part of the Aughts, Apatow created a smart and intelligent adult sitcom that revolved around real human themes and emotions. In one fail swoop, he proved that an R rated comedy could still cash in at the box office. This one flick kick-started far too many careers to count, including Paul Rudd’s, Steve Carell’s, Seth Rogen’s, and Jane Lynch’s. Not to mention creating a brand name out of the last name Apatow. While many similar films have followed in its footsteps, no other comedy has meant as much to this decade as The Forty Year Old Virgin.

Aught Blog Critic’s Pick for 2007? Superbad.
Directed by Greg Mottola, this Judd Apatow produced comedy went on to earn $121 million at the box office. It also proved to be the funniest film of the entire decade. Earning more laughs per minute than any other film made in the last ten years, Superbad redefined vulgarity and the use of profanity for laughter’s sake. It also upheld its human relationships, centering itself on the true bond of friendship. It’s a one of a kind movie miracle that doesn’t happen very often. And it’s still heralded as the greatest teen flick of all time, besting even John Hughes’ epic entries in the genre.
