![]() Two highly anticipated films were released in 2015 that revisited old favourites. Runners up: Mad Max: Fury Road and Jurassic World The humour, the scenery, the offbeat characters – it is one of Taika Waititi’s finest and an absolute gem. HFTW secured its place in my favourite films just a few minutes into my first watch. Runners up: Moana, Deadpool, Doctor Strange Wonder Woman kicked ass but the film that I have watched more times than all of those – Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle. It is completely charming and fun, and something I will undoubtedly keep watching. The Shape of Water was beautiful and haunting while Blade Runner 2049 utterly cool. Runners up: Blade Runner 2049, Wonder Woman, The Shape of Water I was captivated by Green Book after just a few minutes – Viggo Mortensen and Mahershala Ali are outstanding – but my favourite has to be A Quiet Place for its originality, drama and attention to detail. NB: There are still a lot of films that were released in 2019 that I haven’t seen yet (including Once Upon a Time… In Hollywood, Joker and Jojo Rabbit) so my favourite and the runners up may change. It was the first film in quite a while that my boyfriend and I continued to talk about after we’d gone to bed. It deserves all the accolades it has received: the writing, the casting, the direction. ![]() Runners up: Knives Out, Avengers: Endgame, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker It is way more than a ‘creature feature’: it looks stunning and at times has you on the edge of your seat. Films like Underwater need to be seen on the big screen. Underwater was the first (of only two) film that I saw on screen in 2020 before the world tipped on its head. Runners up: Soul, Promising Young Woman, Da 5 Bloods It’s pure entertainment and has the feel-good factor in buckets, which is sometimes all you want from a film. I saw it at the cinema, accompanied by my mum who got some (but not all) of the gaming references, and thoroughly enjoyed the humour, Easter Eggs and music. Runners up: Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, The Green Knight Name your favourite movie from every year since you were born.” I’ve chosen them for the simple reason that I enjoy them.Īndy’s rules? “What is your favourite movie from last year?
