Lars & the Real Girl (knocks out The Savages)
RE: Sweeney Todd: Sorry, folks, I guess I don't get what people see in Sondheim's musical. There is really only one "song" - the rest is just [terrible] exposition sung to the same tune throughout. It's a classic example of what's wrong with the genre. They have so little plot and therefore should have much time to show you characterization, etc. on screen but fail to do even that. Yes, Helena Bonham Carter looks hot even when she looks dead but it's not enough to save this one.
