While not every movie can make the best of 2009 list, there were plenty of movies that deserve their share of mention and praise. Some were fun, some were creepy, some were really good, some were enjoyable despite their flaws.
(Once again keep in mind that many of these movies may have been made/released in other countries, or had festival screenings prior to 2009, but they weren't released proper until this year.)
