The only one I can think of at the moment is Mamma Mia.

happy go lucky is one of my favourite films, not just of this year but of all time.
my winnipeg is one of guy maddin's best films.
wendy and lucy is also a classic, one of the best films of the century imo
love exposure is one of the most perfect films to me. ridiculously long, which is something i usually despise, but it plays perfectly.
synecdoche, ny is a film i've never quite loved, certainly not the way i love being john malkovich or adaptation, but it is weird & funny & unforgettable.

others, in no particular order
viva
man on wire
trouble the water
hunger
the wrestler
shotgun stories
timecrimes
in bruges
xxy
baghead

a pretty great year, i'd say.
