I liked District 9 in general but the end left me hanging a bit too much to be in my top 5.
Avatar was pure spectacle but I had to sit there for 240 minutes pushing all the Biology I know to the back of my mind. My Army buddy who did Kosovo and 2 tours in Iraq had to push all his military training to the back of his mind. At the end, we both can out pretty impressed with the scale and technical innovation of the movie. Anybody who has ever spent any time creating and rendering a 3D world from scratch has to be. As corny as the movie was, you had to be impressed that it was mostly 3D animated characters making you really experience the corniness. I mean, the writing was horrible, but not because the 3D animated characters were unbelieveable. They really did come off as "actors" just following bad direction.
