Great Films From 2010-2020

[Griff]

Films from the '80s were talked about being crap today and the thread chucked up a million great films.

How many great films have there been in the years 2010-2020?

Great films?

 

[Orang Utan]

Just like the 80s as it is with any decade innit

The Lego Movie is one of the greatest films ever made. I may fire it up again tonight.

 

[Jennaonthebeach]

Ones I've seen and enjoyed (and remembered):
Amy, The Death of Stalin, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Gravity, Mad Max: Fury Road, The Martian, Stan & Ollie, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Toy Stories 3&4, True Grit, What We Do in the Shadows, Under the Skin, Attack the Block, Source Code, Super 8, Dredd, World War Z, Interstellar, 10 Cloverfield Lane, Deadpool, Four Lions, Trollhunter, The Cabin in the Woods, Color Out of Space, It 1&2,


Those I consider to be the cream of the bunch:
Parasite, Hell or Highwater, Cloud Atlas, Chappie, Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa, Midsommar,

Not helped by the fact that I find it really hard to source recent movies, as I no longer have a DVD player and you've got to know where its streaming these days, if you don't want to pirate it.

 

[belboid]

Lady Macbeth
The Handmaiden
Hereditary
Winter's Bone
Get Out
Under the Skin
Parasite
Babadook
Black Swan
Eighth Grade

and, of course, The Lego Movie

[hitmouse]

God, I'm awful at keeping up with new films, but Sorry To Bother You were alright.

 

[SpookyFrank]

Train to Busan

 

[hitmouse]

I was going to say Four Lions must be older, but looks it was 2010, so I suppose it qualifies.

 

[Griff]

Hated World War Z as it was such a disapointment after reading the book.

Had Parasite on my Sky planner for ages and haven't got around to watching it yet.

Loved Dredd and always watch it if it's on Film 4.

 

[Jennaonthebeach]

I was going to say Four Lions must be older, but looks it was 2010, so I suppose it qualifies.

Feels older but i saw someone else put it in their list and i'd forgotten it, so i added it.

 

[Jennaonthebeach]

Hated World War Z as it was such a disapointment after reading the book.

I treated them as separate entities but yeah, compared to the book it were't great, but i still mostly enjoyed it - though not the endling.

 

[Indeliblelink]

My slightly long list -

[Elpenor]

I really liked Dunkirk

 

[baldrick]

Crazy Rich Asians
Fences
Parasite
Get Out
Arrival
Spotlight

Would never have thought to include four lions, thought it was much older.

Have heard polarising reactions to Green Book, is it worth watching?

 

[RedRedRose]

Have heard polarising reactions to Green Book, is it worth watching?

I liked it. I think films that deal with overcoming racism are a hard sell, and can sometimes have a schmaltzy feeling. Green Book, however, is a convergence of several themes on race, class, and sexual orientation; furthermore, I was convinced by the friendship of the two men, it didn't feel forced.

 

[RedRedRose]

My slightly long list -

Very exhaustive, but a few on there I have never even come across: Snowpiercer, God Bless America amongst others

[RedRedRose]

Dreams Of A Life - 2011

Watched this at the cinema. Great documentary; powerful on so many levels.

 

[A380]

Paddington and Paddington II

Both fantastic The second being, officially, the greatest film ever made.

 

[MickiQ]

Lots of Great Films listed but I would add

Aquaman
Attack The Block
Beauty and The Beast
Cinderella
Edge of Tomorrow
Jumanji The Next Level
Maleficient
Ready Player One
The Adjustment Bureau
The Forbidden Kingdom

Thor Ragnarok, Ant Man and Deadpool are the best but all of the Marvel films of that decade are pretty good (Eternals in 2021 is when the rot set in)

 

[DaveCinzano]

I might have overdone it... I've now done ‘underrated/good/great’ lists for the 00s (234), 10s (369) and 20s (53), and that came to 656 films

So obviously I've put them all into a spreadsheet, and am plodding through adding in C20 stuff. And then realising I might as well just do a spreadsheet of all films I've seen, and rating them
