My top 5 movies of 2021
5. The Green Knight
This haunting and mysterious adaptation of a medieval tale may not have been my very favourite, but it definitely earned a spot on my top 5. 4. Shang-Chi And The Legend of the 10 Rings Excellent action, especially the hand-to-hand combat scenes. I also loved seeing the Chinese Guardian lions come to life. 3. Ghost Busters: Afterlife I didn't love it as much as the original, but this sequel did pretty well and it's definitely my favorite Ghostbuster sequel so far. My only criticism was that it felt a bit too derivative (it even had the same antagonists as the original). But this movie added something to the franchise which had been missing in previous sequels: the benevolent ghost, which figures out what it needs to do in order to move on. 2. Spider-Man: No Way Home This movie was exciting and fun, and I did something which no other film has done before, which is to bring together various adaptations of the same franchise. 1. Suicide Squad (2021) This was a real surprise for me. I didn't enjoy the previous Suicide Squad, so I had low expectations going into this one. But this movie just blew me away! It had interesting and colourful characters, touching moments, hilarity, great soundtrack - the whole package. A number members of the squad die,

Re: My top 5 movies of 2021
OK, I need to update.
1. Last Night in Soho **** 2. The Innocents **** 3. Old Henry ***½ 4. Gaia *** 5. The Suicide Squad *** Just saw the new #2 today, so I'm not 100% sure of the order of the first two yet. Anyway, those two are definitely on the top, and the #3 is as firmly on the 3rd spot. The rest are more like fillers. |
