ranking the best and worst of the toronto film festival

Now that the Toronto Film Festival is over, it's a time for quiet reflection -- and list-making. From worst to best, here are the films I saw (including ones I screened prior to the festival):

Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans
Leaves of Grass

Cole

Triage

Jennifer's Body

Youth in Revolt

Solomon Kane

Ong Bak 2

The Dirty Saints

Daybreakers

Leaving (Partir)

Whip It

The Disappearance of Alice Creed

An Education

The Loved Ones

Fish Tank

The Invention of Lying

Farewell (L'Affaire Farewell)

The White Ribbon

Mother and Child

Antichrist

Up in the Air

Lebanon

The Damned United

The White Stripes Under Great White Northern Lights

I Am Love


What does this list suggest? That I still have a lot of films to catch up on. It never ends.
