    Are we coming from angle of a film that deserved to do better in the BO but didn't? If so,

    Scott Pilgrim -v- The World

    Iron Man 2

    Just to clarify, this category is open to your own interpretation. It can be a film that did poorly at the box office, didn't receive the amount of critical / public acclaim it may have deserved, or one that everyone hated but you! Even ones that were overshadowed by other releases.

    I shall nominate:

    Greenberg - Far from a typical Ben Still vehicle, this was a return to form for Noah Baumbach and had an outstanding performance from Greta Gerwig. Deserved more attention than it got.

    The Brothers Bloom, a flawed but rich film that deserved more than a token, year late IFI release.

    This might be an unpopular nomination but I'm going with Skyline. It's not exactly a good film but was seriously not worthy of the malignant reviews it got.

    American: The Bill Hicks Story - deserved a much wider distribution than it got.

    Buried - The most gripping movie Ive seen in ages. Great acting by Reynolds too.

    The Expendables - Screw the begrudgers, I thought it kicked ass.
