Looking to discover some of the best films of last year that might just have flown under your radar?

Heres our round-up…

General consensus seems to be that 2010 was a solid year for English-language films.

But, as usual, there were an abundance of movies that didnt quite get the love they deserved.

As for the rest?

Well, lets just say its worth you digging out any of these…

10.

Easy A

Okay, this ones cheating a bit.

It was a solid box office hit and reaped a fair bit of acclaim.

So, yes,Easy Ais a teen comedy.

That much is true.

Shes now hard at work on theSpider-Manreboot, butEasy Ahas very much marked her as a talent to watch.

And theres really not often that you see those words put together.

Well worth checking out.

Beer a welcome accessory.

Black Dynamite

Looking for the overlooked comedy of 2010?

Then look no further.

But its ripe for rediscovery on disc, and its ripe for cult success.

The DVD arrives in the UK later this month.

However,Tamara Dreweshowed us an alternative world that lay beyond superheroics.

Its served by a strong cast, and a terrific (and scarily prescient) cameo from Kevin Smith.

And sure, it has a few problems.

But theres no way you dont get your moneys worth from it.

Clarke remains a director very much worth following.

It gives Demi Moore her best role in years, too.

The less you know about the film the better.

So well shut up about it right now, to let you discover it for yourself.

Youth In Revolt

The Michael Cera movie that set most tongues wagging in 2010 wasScott Pilgrim Vs The World.

And theres some justification as to why that should be the case.

But heck, that doesnt mean that the terrificYouth In Revoltshould be overlooked.

This is a much darker piece thanPilgrimand sees Cera playing two roles, in a deliciously dark comedy.

You should seek it out.

Cemetery Junction

A film that deserved so much more than it got.

What we warmed to was the sheer level of detail here.

Merchant and Gervais invest heavily in their characters and in getting the look and feel of the film right.

And they wisely rest their film on the young shoulders of, particularly, the excellent Christian Cooke.

Yet, the film is nearly stolen from underneath him by a superb turn from Emily Watson.

It might not be the comedy that many fans of Merchant and Gervais would have wanted.

Instead, as it turned out, it was something just a little bit more.

Down Terrace

So,Monsterswas the low-budget, Brit-indie smash of the year.

Just missed the cut:Mic Macs,The Hole
