Movies of 2006

Most every week I have a date with my sister to go to the movies. Even if nothing good's been released we go to the movies. We love movies, movie popcorn and, in my case, Raisinets. But they only taste good at the movies.

The following is a list of all the movies we saw in 2006. My faves, the ones I'd see again, are highlighted in blue; the worst, the ones that were a total waste of time and money, are highlighted in red; the others, well, they fall somewhere in the middle.

Last Holiday
Nanny McPhee
The Pink Panther
Firewall
Tyler Perry's Madea's Family Reunion
Failure to Launch
Inside Man
Ice Age II: The Meltdown
Basic Instinct 2
Take the Lead
United 93

If I had to pick a favorite movie for 2006 I'd have to say it was Little Miss Sunshine with The Holiday in the runner up spot.
The worst of the worst? Snakes on a Plane followed closely by Basic Instinct 2.
