2012 in film

This year I tried noting down every film I watched with a rating. I got 56 altogether, but I might have missed some towards the beginning of the year! They are presented below in chronological order.

Possible awards:
 ★   Good!
 ★★  Very good
 ★★★ Amazing!
 ★   Bad...
 ★★  Very bad
 ★★★ Awful!
These measure my subjective experience of the film, not my objective critique! If I enjoyed a movie, it got some gold stars, without deep analysis of whether it deserved it. And vice versa.

Also I've bolded some titles, to highlight significant films (one I was highly anticipating, is a well-known classic, was just really good, or has some sort of significance to me personally).

If it wasn't the first time I'd seen the film, that is also indicated.
