Since its the beginning of a new year and this is my first post I thought that I should share my top 10 movies of 2018…….. SPOILERS!!!
10. Hereditary 7.5/10
This film was easily the best horror film of 2018. First off the acting was incredible except for that one crying part when the mother tells the son and dad she can contact her dead daughter. The plot twists where very surprising and it was very shocking when Charlie’s head was decapitated. BUT OVERALL it was terrifying and very entertaining to watch.
9. Hostiles 7.9/10
First off I love me some good Christian Bale acting and this film shows it. The action sequences were very harsh at some points but still fun to watch. The acting was good but not great on some parts which is ok because this film tells a great story of hope and honor, which I very much enjoyed, and the growing relationship between Bales character and the chiefs was fantastic.
8. Don’t Worry, He Won’t Get Far on Foot 8/10
This film really made my emotions come out. I laughed, cried, and became angry at some points. the acting was great and Jonah hill was as well, as usual. Joaquin phoenix was amazing and he showed the struggles of John Callahan really well. This is a must see.
7. A Quiet Place 8.5/10
A quiet place was entertaining to watch and was scary most of the time. The directing by John Krasinski was great and I hope to see more of it in the future. Emily blunt was fierce and did a fantastic job. The film was unpredictable and killed off a child in the first 10 minutes. Blew me away!
6. 22 July 9/10
This film shows the tragic, true story of the massacre of a youth camp in Norway in 2011. The acting was good, but the emotions coming from the screen made it feel as you where right there with them. It truly made me tear and it’s just one hell of a good movie.
5. Bohemian Rhapsody 9/10
Rami Malek portrayed Freddie so well and his moments made it feel as if we were watching Freddie himself . I love everything about this film except for the changes in timeline, but the Live Aid concert scene was just great and made you feel like you were in the crowd with everyone else.
4. The Ballad of Buster Scruggs 9/10
This movie made me laugh so many times and Buster Scruggs was so likeable. Everyone in the film was amazing and the cinematography was as well. I just cant stop singing those great tunes.
3. Apostle 9.3/10
Dan Stevens was great in this film and it made you want to close your eyes at some parts. the violence was shot really well and the plot is easy to pick up on. It’s amazing, creepy, and weird. I LOVE IT.
2. You were Never really There 9.5/10
Another amazing Phoenix film on my list. This is easily one the greatest films I’ve watched. The cinematography is impeccable and the acting is just amazing. Joaquin is just so damn good in this film and I didn’t want it to come to an end. The violence is just great and some parts are just heartbreaking. You must check this one out.
1. Mandy 9.8/10
What isn’t good about the film? Nicolas Cage gives another amazing performance and probably his best yet. Its just so brutal and demonic that you can’t help but not want to look away to see what happens next. The actions sequences are the best I’ve seen and that chainsaw fight was just great. The incredible director Panos Cosmatos outdid himself and made one of my favorite films. EVER. A MUST SEE!!!
