The top 25 must-see movies of 2012 - Den of Geek - StumbleUpon Update: You can now find out list of the top 25 must-see movies of 2013 here.And our 25 must-see movies of 2014 are here. As 2011 draws to a close, one eye is inevitably on the treats that are lying ahead for 2012. With that in mind, we've got our line-up of, as things stands, the 25 films that are brightest on our radar. Now, a couple of disclaimers.

We've also had to exclude films that have already had a release in either the UK or the US. However, that's still left us with a lot of tasty cinema. Neither Spy Kids 4 nor Scream 4 performed as expected in 2011, and that’s inevitably going to leave Hollywood types feeling just a bit wary about belated sequels. It’s got promise, this one. So far, so so.
