X-Men seems universally enjoyed, though I don't find many people that agree with me in putting it at the top of this year's list.
Bottom in my books is without a doubt Transcendence. I knew it was horribly reviewed but forced myself because of my fascination with the technological singularity...ham-fisted treatment of the subject matter doesn't even begin to describe this boring, nonsensical tripe. The amazing, understated Her from just a few months prior made Transcendence look that much worse. What's funny is that Johnny Depp plays a computer for the majority of this movie, but an actual computer would have put in a more passionate, convincing performance than he did.
