10. All About Steve
Sandra Bullock had three movies in 2009, two of which have garnered award nominations. This is the other one.

It’s a non-traditional romantic comedy that fails because it ignores the formula… and the characters are just plain stupid.
9. My Sister’s Keeper
Nick Cassavetes, who gave us the weepy drama “The Notebook,” directs this adaptation of Jodi Picoult’s novel about a family that creates a child to be an organ and tissue farm for their other daughter who is dying of leukemia.

10. Paranormal Activity
The theme for this year in my moviegoing adoration was the return of the theatrical experience, and “Paranormal Activity” was a tiny little film that made it big because of this. If you didn’t see this movie in a dark theater with 250 of your closest friends, you were really missing out.
9. Anvil: The Story of Anvil
Each year, a special documentary seems to make it on my list. This year’s pick is “Anvil: The Story of Anvil.” It’s a tender story of a real-life “Spinal Tap” with a bit of “American Movie” mixed in. I dare you to watch it and not root for the guys in the greatest metal band that never was.
