Red and May's Best and Worst of 97

It may surprise you, but this year there's been a shortage of really bad movies. There were many bad ones, but almost none that were bad enough to achieve the level of greatness that is required to get in our list, like last year's worst winners. For that reason, our list this year is consisted mostly of movies we think are good.

As in last year, the term "year" is variable. We included here movies that we watched during 1997. Some of them came out in the US in 1996, but took a while to get to the land of Iz.

The Best & Worst Are:

1. Face/Off
2. Batman and Robin
3. The Full Monty
4. Scream
5. The Ice Storm
6. Contact
7. The Lost World
8. Romy and Michele's High School Reunion
9. The Devil's Advocate
10. The Fifth Element
11. Alien Resurrection
12. Kissed

(Dis)Honorable Mentions:

The Best Half an Hour : Chasing Amy
The Best Second Watching : Titanic
Not Even Worth Writing About : G.I. Jane
