The Best Movies of the Decade. Our top movies from 2000-09 Earlier this week, we published our list of the best music of the decade.

The Best Movies of the Decade

Now, it's time to do the same for movies. Our film staff has been collecting reviews for each week's new theatrical releases since the fall of 1999, and, as a result, we have a nearly complete database of films from the past decade: certainly every major release from 2000-09, and virtually all minor releases, including obscure titles that barely made an appearance on the big screen. As a result, the various lists below represent the best the decade had to offer -- at least in the eyes of top professional film critics.

Only three other films appeared on more than a quarter of the lists: the Michel Gondry-Charlie Kaufman collaboration Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, David Lynch's cryptic and surreal Mulholland Drive, and the Coen Brothers' dark thriller No Country For Old Men. Below, we list the movies that appeared most frequently on the critics' decade-end lists. What are your favorites?
