Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter (2012) - IMDb - *www.homefrontproducts.co.uk/images/stars/3stars.gif
Good for one-time watch. I feel, the story is rushed in the mid & end, to make the Americans to fight with vampires.
Benjamin Walker did good with his role as Abe Lincoln, though this movie is more of like a spoof.

Stand By Me (Stand by Me (1986) - IMDb)
The Man from earth (The Man from Earth (2007) - IMDb)
PROOF that Great movies can be made on a low budget.... Bollywood? are you paying attention?
Seriously guys, Stand by me is amazing(No not a movie for kids! Mind it) , its a drama movie about 4 friends in their tween years and their perspective(Am I using the word right?) of life.
And the Man from earth is an awesome sci-fi movie, IF your history is good. Other wise you will end up googling half of the stuff in the movie.

My favorite movies which I watched in 2012:
Most of them are offbeat movies so these might appeal only to selected few from this thread. One factor which makes them my favorite - the movie might not appeal you at the first viewing but it creates a long lasting impression on you and you remember it for a long time afterwards.
1) Perfect Sense - A perfect post apocalypse movie for me. I can compare this to Monsters, which was my fav movie a couple of years back. This one created more impact though. This was on the similar theme of Contagion - but had more soul. Perfect depressing movie.
2) Gangs of Wasseypur - Especially part 2. I don't think this movie would get any major awards. But if it were in my hands, I'd felicitate all the actors, Anurag Kashyap and Sneha Khanwalkar.
3) Barfi - Ignoring few copied scenes, it still was a touching movie.
4) Shala - Awesome movie reminding us of our own school days.
5) English Vinglish - Loved it for a different concept and fabulous direction and acting.
6) You Instead (Tonight You're mine) - A documentary-styled filmed different love story. Loved it for its uniqueness, songs and acting.
7) London Paris New York - Liked it.
8) Falling Overnight - A very offbeat emotional movie. Tearjerker. Different. This ignored and forgotten movie deserves more credit.
Of course I loved all mainstream movies (eg. TDKR), but havent included them in this offbeat list.

Just watched a movie named The Words, released this year. Not sure why it isnt rated high but it touched me. Best film of 2012 according to me, even better than Man on a ledge, end of watch.

The Campaign 6/10
It would have been a good movie if it were 15-20 minutes short. Has its own moments but the premise is wasted by dragging the story.
Looper 7.5/10
Surprised!
Hated the trailer but loved the movie. Has a predictable ending but still has a better story than Inception. Recommended.
