At a time when film critics are busy compiling lists of the films they fanatically adored or severely detested over the last year, I’m here to point out 5 films where I think the critical masses got it all wrong. These are the five films of 2008 that I believe most critics simply didn’t “get”; possibly because they approached the films with the wrong mindset or because they failed to see the rose a top of the thorns.

The decorations are up, the carols are playing and the presents are wrapped and ready: Christmas time is here again! The fun and festivities of Christmas have not gone unnoticed in Hollywood; rather, many movies have been made with the silly season a main feature. Most Christmas films are made not with the intention of winning Academy Awards, but to put a smile on your face, make you feel good and get you into the Christmas spirit. Being a Christmas nut, I have watched many a Christmas movie over the years, and so have put together a list of some of the most enjoyable Christmas films.

Super Mario Bros, Street Fighter, Hitman, Doom, Tomb Raider and more recently Max Payne. What do all these gaming greats have in common? They’ve all become feature films that are a whole lot like the product of our trips the porcelain throne. In layman’s terms, they’re Shit.

In celebration of the latest outing of the world most famous spy in Quantum of Solace, which hits Australian cinemas next week, IGN put together a funny little video that pits ex-Bond Pierce Brosnan vs.  Daniel Craig.

Who would you rather win?
