  1. Papillon:
    With so many films we've had on here I'd almost forgotten about this one, but then you can't forget the realness of scenes like McQueen eating a cockroach and you remember just what a fantastic prison escape and aventure film this is.

    Tree of Life:
    While I was impressed by the visuals and respect the ambition and scope of this film, I wasn't very keen on it when I saw it, the fragmentary way to tell the story didn't seem to have much point to me and neither did Sean Penn's tiny cameo role.
