Best Film of 2004

Nominees for the Fifth Annual Cosmique Movie Awards

Awarded to the film deemed by Cosmo voters to be the best movie released in the United States in 2004. Films that received limited release in 2004 are still eligible for consideration, provided that they received sufficient distribution early enough in 2004 to have a chance to be seen by Cosmo voters. However, films that were only screened at film festivals are generally only considered at the year they were first released in theaters or on video.

Million Dollar Baby
