2020
The Invisible Man
The Wolf of Snow Hollow
Undine

2021
Luca
Mad God
Petite Manam

2022
Barbarian
Everything Everywhere All At Once
Prey
The Outfit
Weird: The Al Yankovic Story



I am the Watcher in the Night

1. 1917
2. All Quiet on the Western Front
3. Parasite
4. Soul
5. I'm Thinking of Ending Things

9. The Green Knight
10. The Guilty

You ready? You look ready.
Black Widow - the best Marvel movie to date


The Outpost


Boss Level


Without Remorse

I've not seen a lot of the highly regarded films yet of the past couple of years, however the one film that absolutely floored me with brilliance, and class, and artistry that I think is the best of this decade so far AND is David Fincher's best film, topping out even the coveted Fight Club is Mank.

Fully agreed. For what it’s worth, I felt the remake was ‘exactly the same’ but lacking punchiness.



I havent seen many movies that impressed me since 2020, except the French movie Mandibles. That was a great movie and only 70 minutes long. I will use your lists here to guide me into new good movie territory.
