2010 Film Junk Readers Choice Award Winners

Some of us might see more movies on a regular basis than others, but let’s face it, when the end of the year rolls around, everyone enjoys weighing in with “best of” lists — which is precisely why we started doing the Film Junk Readers Choice Awards five years ago. Once again, we have divided the year’s cinematic landscape up into categories, and nominated five films for each based on our own feelings, in addition to critical reception and public opinion. After that, we left it up to you guys to pick the winners. Now that the votes have been tallied and the winners have been selected, it’s time to find out what the Film Junkies enjoyed most in 2010. Check out a complete rundown of the results after the jump!
