__________________

I don't personally count documentaries.
There are certainly some (including Act of Killing) which would have made my list otherwise.

Well in that case 25th place is a toss up between Drive, Whiplash and Looper.

Have you seen Into Eternity?

No not seen it.
Looks quite interesting though.
I will get onto exploring documentaries more fully at some point.
There are already quite a few from the 2010s that I like though.

It's pretty great. Think Kubrick but with actually compelling content beyond the visuals

My documentaries list:

1. Virunga 2015
2. The Look of Silence 2014
3. Diego Maradona 2019
4. Apollo 11 2019
5. Senna 2010
6. The 2 Escobars 2010
7. The Ambassador 2011

10 for the 21st century

1. Werckmeister Harmonies (Béla Tarr, 2000)
2. Right Now, Wrong Then (Hong Sang-Soo, 2015)
3. Drive My Car (Ryūsuke Hamaguchi, 2021)
4. Winter Sleep (Nuri Bilge Ceylan, 2014)
5. My Mister (Kim Won-suk, 2018)
6. Death in the Land of Encantos (Lav Diaz, 2007)
7. Extraordinary Stories (Mariano Llinás, 2008)
8. What Time Is It There? (Tsai Ming-liang, 2001)
9. Past Lives (Celine Song, 2023)
10. In Vanda’s Room (Pedro Costa, 2000)

Interesting choice of directors. I've tried some of these before but wasn't taken by them.

The following look interesting to me though:
-Drive My Car (Ryūsuke Hamaguchi, 2021)
-My Mister (Kim Won-suk, 2018)
-Past Lives (Celine Song, 2023)

This was a good decade for animated movies. Coco, Inside Out, Big Hero 6.


I haven't watched a ton of movies this decade. I'm going to check out your recommendations.

I'm not a big fan of Blade Runner 2049 (it's "okay", i just think it's overrated), but you have some excellent choices in there!


Especially: A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, You Were Never Really Here, Drive, Fury Road, and Midsommar.


Honorable Mention for Melancholia. A difficult watch, but I appreciated it.

Brace yourselves for superhero movies.

List here

It was fun, although I think in 10 years, looking back at the decade, it would look very different.

Oh wow, what a brilliant list. Thanks for sharing.

I already knew that the 10s was a really good decade, but this strengthens that view.

I'm going to give the following a try, most of which I was completely unaware of prior to your post:

4. The Hunt (2012, Thomas Vinterberg)
5. Ain’t Them Bodies Saints (2013, David Lowery)
6. Locke (2013, Steven Knight)
7. A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (2014, Ana Lily Amirpour)
8. The Rover (2014, David Michod)
13. You Were Never Really Here (2017, Lynne Ramsay)
14. The Ballad Of Buster Scruggs (2018, Joel and Ethan Coen)
22. Silence (2016, Martin Scorsese)
25. Two Days, One Night (2014, Dardenne Brothers)

That's a good bit of time nicely filled!
