My picks for the best 10 (or so) films released on DVD to date in 2010.

Crazy or a visionary, Michael Ruppert is a fascinating man to listen to in “Collapse”.

Monty Pythons’ Eric Idle gives us a musical interpretation of their classic film “The Life of Brian” with “Not the Messiah” and it cannot be saved.

Clint Eastwood’s “Invictus” misses the goal.

Though not an instant classic, Martin Scorcese delivers atmosphere and angst with “Shutter Island”.

“The Messenger” is a sober, solid drama about soldiers who must represent Uncle Sam to the familes of fallen military.

“Daybreakers” & “The Road” both present grim futures but ultimately fail to suprise us.

“Nine” puts dance numbers before angst and like Guido has fun but rings hollow.

“Crazy heart” is not ground-breaking, but well-done and Jeff Bridges performance deserved the Oscar.

Peter Jackson’s “The Lovely Bones” is visually rich but absurd.
