I don’t know about you but most (new) movies we rented and watched in 2007 left us staring at each other with a similar “WTF” expression on our faces.

Either the film was simply rotten and a total waste of time, or 5 minutes of enjoyment was spread over 2 hours.

Which is probably why we stick to our favorite series….

As most movies take up to a year to get released on DVD, I thought I’d compile the 25 best movies of 2007 according to their rating over at IMDB, the most comprehensive movie database on the web. Maybe we’ll be luckier this year.

Criteria?

• Released in 2007
