Thought I’d give this another go after last year’s successful effort. It feels like there’s less of a consensus about the best films so far as well, so will be interesting to see how the results end up!
I’m looking for your top 5 films of 2018, going by the general UK release date, ordered like this:
1 - 1st Place
2 - 2nd Place
3 - 3rd Place
Etc.
Any Netflix or streaming films are fine, as is putting fewer than 5 films if you really want to. Also no “joint firsts” please, I’ll just take the first 5 films you list and score them accordingly.
I won’t be doing the results until the start of the new year so there’s no rush.
Still a lot to catch up on and a few still not yet released (Roma, Sorry To Bother You, Poppins, Spiderverse), but so far a rough top 10 looks something like this:
Mission Impossible: Fallout
Phantom Thread
You Were Never Really Here
Cold War
First Man
Shoplifters
Coco
Climax
Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again
Widows
Honourable mentions to Blockers, Lady Bird, Blackklansman, Leave No Trace.
Worst films:
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, The Meg, Fantastic Beats: The Crimes of Grindelwald.
The film received universal critical acclaim, with praise for the performances of Foster and McKenzie, and, after Paddington 2 , it is the second-most reviewed film to hold an approval rating of 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.
