2. Avengers Infinity War I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that we're currently living in a Golden Age of Superhero movies. Studios are shelling out big bucks to bring superhero properties to the big screen in ways many of us never thought would be possible. Aquaman just made a billion dollars. Black Panther...

3. The Hate U Give Top 3 time and I’m starting off (obviously) on a high note. I never read the original novel for this when it came out, but I remember all the talk about it and how great it was. And, having now watched the film version, I can safely say I definitely believe... Continue Reading →

4. Mirai Fun fact, I actually juggled this and Maquia's positions back and forth about half a dozen times while making this list, before eventually making my decision on which one to rank higher. And, if you read the review I wrote for it back when I first saw it, you can understand why I love it... Continue Reading →

5. Maquia: The Promised Flower Blooms Sometimes a GIF can convey thoughts more about a movie than mere words ever could. And in that regard, behold an accurate summation of my initial reaction to Maquia: The Promised Flower Blooms. Seriously though, I don't think it's unfair to say this movie got me somewhat emotional. In fact,... Continue Reading →

6. Black Panther Do I even need to explain this one? ...Well, okay, apparently I do because I tend to hear a lot of people whining about this film nowadays, especially as it goes from incredible success to incredible success. You all know the sorts. 'Wah, it only got so much attention because of the... Continue Reading →

7. One Cut of the Dead Fun Fact: This movie was actually the very last film I saw in 2018. And oh my God, what a magnificent note to go out on. I laughed harder at this than any other movie I saw this year and it's not even close. Deadpool 2? Blockers? The Favourite? Robin Hood? Not... Continue Reading →

8. Penguin Highway This is another movie that I already wrote a review for back in October, but needless to say it's easily the most unexpected movie to reach my Top 10 by a long shot. I'd never even heard of it before I chose to watch it and I'm usually generally on top of anime movie releases....

9. A Quiet Place You know the saying ‘tension so thick you could cut it with a knife?’ Well, that doesn’t describe this movie. No, this movie is so tense, you could boil it down, run it through a cement truck and use the resulting mixture to create a bridge so strong that extra-heavy trucks... Continue Reading →

10. Funan ...Well, it's good to start this list off on a light-hearted note, right? Seriously though, I wrote my initial review for this back in November, a review that was probably one of my most introspective pieces of the year and writing it legit made me think a lot about the way I watch movies like this. And needless...

15. The Favourite Or as it's otherwise known, 'Bitches be cray-cray', am I right? Seriously though, Yorgos Lanthimos (I'm certain I've butchered that spelling) has always been one of those directors I've been meaning to check out but have never actually gotten around to doing so. I heard enough good things about The Lobster and... Continue Reading →
