Michael Clayton was a bit of an indifferent affair at the end of the day (what is George Clooney's obsession with 4 star (out of 5) films!) but Sweeney Todd, disappointing.
The actors, the direction, maybe even get rid of the Sondheim songs, maybe even go for the Ray Winstone-vehicle adaptation a few years ago that was alot better.
Walk Hard looked like it was going to suck because for some reason I usually don't get the same kind of kick most people do from comedies but I saw it at the theater with my father and step brother and I couldn't stop lmao. Seriously, it was a riot and is the funniest movie I ever saw.
No Country for Old Men was exceptionally good.
There Will Be Blood was perfect.

The ending to Perfume definitely surprised the shit out of me. That is one ending i could not have predicted EVER.
As for surprising me because i was expecting gold or shit...
sweeney todd surprised me because i was, at the very least, expecting a decent movie. What i saw was complete shit.
There will be blood, i went in expecting a tightly directed movie with a stellar performance by Lewis and was given a near masterpiece.
Greenstreet Hooligans also surprised me. I saw this early last year. Not expecting anything, i was surprised with a new movie that landed in my top favorites.
Blades of glory surprised me because i had expected shit and actually laughed through out most of the film

when Leo had his head blown off in the Departed, I was like WTF? I spilled my popcorn.

I thought Juno was going to be pretty good, but it sucked. I also didn't have high hopes for Cloverfield, but came out of the whole experience enjoying the film thoroughly.
also Mortal Kombat 2, when Johnny Cage died. I alomst left the theatre, but then I saw Kitana's boobs.

I thought Sweeney Todd was going to blow. Johny Depp is overrated by fangirls and I'm not too fond of musicals. In the end, I was pleasantly surprised to find that I enjoyed the film.
