Damn, Micky, I’ll say at least your taste is remarkably consistent in only liking films where shit blows up.
The Social Network, Les Amours Imaginaires…
Dogtooth, if we’re counting that as a 2010 film. Domaine while we’re at it, although that’s stamped with a 2009 release aswell…
I haven’t seen Enter The Void, Uncle Boonmee or Howl yet… one or two of those might make the list.
Blue Valentine and Black Swan were solid films.
I still have a long way to go before I compile an actual list… wish 2010 was a stronger year for film.
If Enter the Void were to be counted as a 2010 film, it would beat out all the rest :))
UK RELEASE DATES:
1) The Social Network
2) A Prophet
3) Dogtooth
4) Toy Story 3
5) Restrepo
6) Bad Lieutenant
7) Lebanon
8) Monsters
9) Scott Pilgrim vs. The World
10) Inception

Other movies I liked at least a little bit (In no particular order):
Another Year, Restrepo, Inception, Toy Story 3, The Fighter, The Town, Youth In Revolt, The Last Exorcism, Despicable Me, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows pt. I, The Other Guys, Iron Man 2, How to Train Your Dragon
I really need to watch Dogtooth, Inside Job, The Kids Are All Right, Uncle Boonmee, and The Illusionist. But I feel good about that list, considering that I spent half the year in Guam, and had much catching up to do.
I’m pretty good at knowing what movies to skip in favor of an older movie at home, so here is the small list of movies I didn’t like:
Devil, Twilight: Eclipse, Date Night, Hot Tub Time Machine
Black Swan… how can anyone like Black Swan. Go watch The Double Life of Veronique, that is Black Swan done right.
