X2: X-Men United (Bryan Singer, 2003)
X2: X-Men United is an ensemble superhero movie with a terrific cast and a timeless message of unity and compassion instead of fear and prejudice. From the thrilling opening in the White House to Wolverine (Hugh Jackman)'s gripping Weapon X arc, X2 is still one of the best superhero movies around.
Mystic River (Clint Eastwood, 2003)
Directed by Clint Eastwood, Mystic River is one murder mystery that isn't really about the murder or the mystery. It's about pain, loss and the passage of time as three childhood friends are reunited in the wake of a terrible tragedy. With a great trio of performances from Kevin Bacon, Sean Penn and Tim Robbins, this dark tale will probably haunt you for a long time.
Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (Peter Jackson, 2003)
The finale to one of the greatest film trilogies of all time, Return of the King is an epic of staggering proportions. Long as it is, it's hard to imagine a better ending to this amazing journey to Tolkien's Middle-Earth. A movie well worth its record-holding 11 Academy Awards.

A quiet, moving melancholy tale that features truly memorable performances from leads Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson. It's not laugh-out-loud funny or bawl-your-eyes-out sad, nor does it need to be to make a powerful, and lasting impression.
Kill Bill, Vol. 1 (Quentin Tarantino, 2003)
This thrilling and bloody revenge tale is one of writer/director Quentin Tarantino's near undisputed masterpieces. Uma Thurman stars as The Bride, a deadly assassin hunting those who wronged her – Bill chief among them.

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003)
It's weird to think that there was once a time where studio executives thought Pirates of the Caribbean wasn't going to work on the big screen – or that Johnny Depp's Jack Sparrow was going to be a disaster! The quality of its sequel aside, it's easy to see why The Curse of the Black Pearl launched a billion dollar franchise and made Depp a superstar. It's a terribly fun, swashbuckling high-seas adventure with one of the most memorable big screen pirates of all time.
