Total Film's Top Ten Films Of The Year!

As you'll have seen from our January issue's year-end round-up (which has just gone on sale in all brilliant newsagents), 2007's been a pretty good year for film. We've had serial killers, celebrity cowboys, junkie teachers, Mel Gibson wrangling an apocalypse and a Wes Anderson return to form. All the issue doesn't have is individual lists from all of our beloved staff members and contributors. Well, that's what the internet was invented for, so here they are in all their glory. Disagree? Then hop onto our forum to tell us where you think we went wrong...
