A Complete Unknown had its moments, and a great performance by Chalamet. However, the movie felt fairly shallow, and struggled to tell the story in an engaging way.

Compliments for a lot of music.

Conclave had everything it needed to be a great movie, the actors, the setting, the plot, the production, but in the end, I think the writing let the movie down a bit. Still a really good movie, just a weak ending.

I loved Anora, and Mikey Madison was incredible. Think its public rating (imdb/letterboxd) is too low. The movie manages to always move the story ahead convincingly, and within reason for the characters and the situation they are. It’s thrilling, funny, action-filled, image-rich, and quite unique. Easily a top ten movie from 2024 for me. I have to think a little more about its final place.

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is another very solid movie in the franchise. Not quite a top ten movie of the year (more like top 50), but a fantastic production, and a very entertaining movie.

The Wild Robot was excellent. One of the better animated movies in years.

Dune: Part Two was the final movie on my list from 2024, and I’ve now seen an equal number of movies from each of 2022, 2023 and 2024, and I have not yet seen a single movie or series from 2025.

As for Dune: Part Two, it was excellent. Outstanding movie making in a vast range of categories.

My top ten list from 2024 will follow.

It's not a 2025-movie, but I did watch it in the cinema when it was new, and have seen it a couple of times since.

I’m a pretty basic bitch.
Here’s a top five (which includes a 2024 release):

Sinners, One Battle After Another, The Life of Chuck, and 28 Years Later would round out my top 5. So far.

But I've only seen 16 (I think) movies from 2025.

There are still a few I'm really excited to see but here's my first swipe at 2025:

1. Hedda
2. Sinners
3. Die My Love
4. The Testament of Ann Lee
5. Sentimental Value
6. Hamnet
7. 28 Years Later
8. One Battle After Another
9. The Life of Chuck
10. Sorry Baby

The Secret Agent, It Was Just An Accident, and Train Dreams are all high on my list to see from 2025 and I imagine any of those could (will?) change the list once I've seen them. I've got high expectations for all three.
