CLUAS 2000 Readers' Poll !!!
Best Films
The Irish. We are - per capita - the most frequent visitors to cinemas (or so some statistical geniuses keep telling us). So what stood out this year from this mass-cinematic indulgence of ours? An indication does follow...
Best Film of 2000 |

1 Gladiator |
 So
it goes like this - Roman lion-killing marathon session with Oliver Reed's last
moments on the planet scoops the top spot. The Aimee Mann inspired story - the highly
credible and moving Magnolia (apart from the frogs bit) - follows. Memento, the
massively involving brain bender, ties it with the latest Coen brothers odyssey
'O brother where are thou?' And, well, well is that Bruce Willis we see in the 'sure
of course I copped it in the first 5 seconds' caper that is 'the Sixth Sense'?
Uh yes, it is. |

1 Charlie's Angels |
 Doh!
Bring back the original TV series we hear you shout! Yip, Charlie's Angels the movie
was a high-kicking washout for that most demanding of beings - the CLUAS constituent.
A fully-deserving Blair Witch II follows suit while 3 other Hollywood tukeys close
the black list. |
