Amour seems to be on every list, though this is just the beginning.

Spielberg vs. the Industry. Who Will Win In The End?
Spielberg lost.
why all the hate for Cloud Atlas? I thought it was an interesting movie, certainly not the worst film of the year. That honor should go to Battleship.
Well, I think most people that make worst of lists don't include things that were always going to be bad but more things that should have been good or whose anticipation was high and expectations not met.
There is no way a film with as many beautiful, crazy, exciting moments or as with as much ambition as Cloud Atlas has should be considered the worst film of the year.
I pretty much hated Cloud Atlas, but I could never call it the worst film of the year if only for the sheer ambition that was on display. I'd rather that filmmakers take risks and fail than play it safe and be boring.
But still, the movie sucked and that's the true true.

I knew that 80 on Metacritic was incorrect.Not going to email them, just saying.
"I'm a firm believer in karma, and I think this situation is a huge learning lesson for me.
To grow and expand as a spiritual human being. I want to lead a country one day for all I know".
Yay! Looper mention! Still one of my favourite movies of the year (along Amour, Elena, Beasts and Jiro)

Spielberg lost.
So neither of the EW critics included Les Miz on their top ten lists? If they've seen it (which I assume they have), I think that's a very bad sign for this film.
