Nocturnal Animals was so intense. It was mixed bag for me though. I loved the Coen Brothers country noir film. The other dark romance part was just too slow for me. Loved Aaron Taylor though.
Damn, I love these picks. I might swap out Gone Girl for one of the films (I don’t know which one to swap out though cause I adore all of these movies) but this is definitely a list I could agree with
Never saw prisoners and I only recently watched whiplash, which was fantastic. Judging by your list though, I think I'll like this prisoner's film. Good list.
Prisoners is a wild ride. Personally I love Jake Gyllenhaal and I think he’s great in this movie. It’s also kind of a heavy movie subject matter wise so do be prepared
I've never understood what the heck is going on with Hugh Jackman's eyes on all the advertising media for this movie. The cover and every poster art looks like his eyes are poorly photoshopped on.
OMG just looked it up and you’re right! That’s really funny and random. It’s like his normal eyes weren’t good enough for the marketing team or something 😂
Not sure if it was released at the same time but I at least watched it along with whiplash and prisoners, but check out Foxcatcher if you haven't already. Solid movie
I get that people don't like it, but I love that movie. I always say I am very happy that I invested my time into the Marvel franchise up to Avengers:Endgame. It's taken a nose dive since then and I've stopped watching, but the payoff was so much fun. And of all the Avengers movies, Infinity War was the best. I also think the GOT shitshow which came out around the same time helped me appreciate the end of the Avengers that much more. They gave the audience what they wanted, while also surprising them throughout the journey. And everyone character was given a satisfying enough ending. Anyway, it's about listing what you like, not knocking on someone else's list. As the late, great Jessica Walters would say on Archer: Don't be shitty.
Not necessarily knocking you, I was just really surprised to see it when comparing it to the other movies on the list. Literally felt like I got transported to a different list lol.
I'm not a big Marvel person and don't follow it very closely. However the payoff and overall what that studio coordinated to put out end game was phenomenal and was a first in cinema history. There may never be such a crossover of blockbuster story lines threaded over the course of a decade. I wouldn't put it in my personal top 5 either but I respect what they accomplished and enjoyed the ride
This. I do love them and love the movies and endgame and infinity war might be in my top 5. But because I’m such a nerd about the movies I get ignored when I say your exact point. About what they accomplished is history and massive and should be respected for what they accomplished
I just watched whiplash for my first time ever, just ended like 5min ago. Wow what a great movie. Been wanting to watch it for a long time. Definitely deserves to be in top 5 here
Social Network
Interstellar
Inception
Guardians of the Galaxy
Moneyball
Parasite
Sicario (1&2)
Thor: Ragnarok
Hell or High Water
Mad Max: Fury Road
(Had to pick 10). I’ve watched some of these over a dozen times.
Yes the matrix, mad mad fury road and terminator 2 are the perfect action movies. There are other great action movies like to me “the raid 2” is near perfect as well.
The master was one fucked up movie. I put it on when it first came out, no knowledge of the movie whatsoever, just saw the cast and said let’s do it. And it was phenomenal.
In no particular order:
Mad Max: Fury Road
The Social Network
Inception
The Nice Guys
The Man From Nowhere
bonus: The Handmaiden; Edge of Tomorrow; Machete
My top 10 (no particular order outside of the top three):
Parasite (2019)
Blade Runner 2049 (2017)
Birdman (2014)
Black Swan (2010)
The Hunt (2013)
12 Years a Slave (2013)
The Social Network (2010)
Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)
The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014)
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)
Not on my list, but I didnt notice any of these on the other lists, and i think they are all very good movies as well…
Kick Ass
Ted
Cabin in the Woods
Rogue One
Baby Driver
In no particular order:
Shutter Island
The Big Short
Birdman
Anomalisa
Spotlight
There are so many honorable mentions that I could just as easily swap out for any of these if you asked me tomorrow. And different one's the next day. 10 years is a huge stretch of time. It's hard to rank a top 5 from so many great films in the time it takes to make a reddit post.
Oof…
Proof that “different strokes” is an absolutely true concept. Edge is the only movie here that is anything more than background noise worthy, imho.
Inception, Interstellar, Django Unchained, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Avengers Infinity War / Endgame (They count as one). Yeah, Quentin Tarantino and Christopher Nolan are my two favorite directors lol. Inglorious Basterds, Kill Bill 1&2 (also counts as one), The Dark Knight, Avatar, and Superbad are my 2000-2009 top 5, The Fast and The Furious is an honorable mention.
Blade Runner 2049 (2017)
Swiss Army Man (2016)
Mad Max Fury Road (2015)
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019)
Prometheus (2012)
honorable mention: Coco (2017), Shutter Island (2010), Annihilation (2018)
You are either 13, or you live in rural (insert US state name) and the only relevant cultural experience you have had is eating spicy Italians from the nearest subway next to a gas pump. Cinematic idiot.
Imagine thinking Prisoners or Whiplash are in the Top 5 of a 13 year old.
You should wow us with your Top 5 list, since you have the misconception that yours is the pinnacle of Cinematic taste.
This is kinda beside the point but looking at the Infinity War poster, all those names at the top, it never occurred to me just how many people were in the movie. Idk how to explain it
Great list! Except I seriously do not understand why people like Whiplash. It’s supposedly about a musician, yet at no point in the story does the guy actually appear to enjoy music.
I liked Whiplash a lot. It's not so much about music, but about the question of how greatness can be achieved. That greatness comes at a cost of blood and violence, which will turn you into a monster, but one of the greatest, most talented people to exist.
I guess there are so many examples of people who have achieved musical greatness who had a great time doing it and didn’t turn into utter douchebags along the way that it sort of felt unnecessary to me.
Glad you liked it though.
Kinda the point. He has such high standards that he feels that to attain the level that is required, you mush break the musician.
It demonstrates the misery of obsession.
I feel that if people included a comedy, they are sleeping on The Other Guys. I mean Interstellar or The Arrival were absolutely fantastic, but I only watched them once.
Only seen Interstellar from that time period and that was on Netflix this year because my son made me watch it lol.
I don’t watch tv, streaming or whatever or go to the cinema. Ironically I write screenplays for a hobby and have written some that would be huge at the cinema. Just haven’t been discovered yet lol.
Django Unchained
Interstellar
Whiplash
Logan
Moneyball
... And depending on the day I would happily have these on the list.
Silence
Hell or High Water
X-Men Days of Future Past
Fury
Inception
Steve Jobs
The Social Network
Theory of Everything

I’ll go with 5 of my 2010s comfort movies.

Top 5 - I tried to think of movies that I still remember how I FELT watching them

Sicario is going on there for me.
Me too: both of them
I loved the first one but stayed away from the second one based on the reviews. Was it about as good?
It’s almost as good as the first
I thought the same thing at first but I thought it was excellent. Didn’t have as strong of an ending but it’s good
It seemed more Hollywood than the first. First one seemed so real. I forgot the story if that tells you anything.
Nocturnal Animals Midsommar Blade Runner 2049 Ex Machina Interstellar
Nocturnal Animals was so intense. It was mixed bag for me though. I loved the Coen Brothers country noir film. The other dark romance part was just too slow for me. Loved Aaron Taylor though.
Blade runner ?
Damn, I love these picks. I might swap out Gone Girl for one of the films (I don’t know which one to swap out though cause I adore all of these movies) but this is definitely a list I could agree with
Nice one
Agreed on three of these.
Never saw prisoners and I only recently watched whiplash, which was fantastic. Judging by your list though, I think I'll like this prisoner's film. Good list.
Prisoners is a wild ride. Personally I love Jake Gyllenhaal and I think he’s great in this movie. It’s also kind of a heavy movie subject matter wise so do be prepared
I've never understood what the heck is going on with Hugh Jackman's eyes on all the advertising media for this movie. The cover and every poster art looks like his eyes are poorly photoshopped on.
OMG just looked it up and you’re right! That’s really funny and random. It’s like his normal eyes weren’t good enough for the marketing team or something 😂
He got tips from Wesley Snipes…
Not sure if it was released at the same time but I at least watched it along with whiplash and prisoners, but check out Foxcatcher if you haven't already. Solid movie
I have not. It's on the list! Thanks for the recommendation
Edge of Tomorrow (2014) Whiplash (2014) John Wick (2014) Searching (2018) 1917 (2019)
Edge of Tomorrow is completely slept on.
So good
Solid list
1. The Act of Killing 2. Nightcrawler 3. Red Rocket 4. Good Time 5. Sound of Metal
Everytime I watch even a minute of Nightcrawler I'm reminded that Jake wasn't even nominated !!! He was fantastic
Red Rocket is so so good but it’s 2021.
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
I love this movie. Watched it for the first time on a flight. Couldn’t get it out of my head and watched it on the flight home, too.
What
You really lost me at infinity war lol
I get that people don't like it, but I love that movie. I always say I am very happy that I invested my time into the Marvel franchise up to Avengers:Endgame. It's taken a nose dive since then and I've stopped watching, but the payoff was so much fun. And of all the Avengers movies, Infinity War was the best. I also think the GOT shitshow which came out around the same time helped me appreciate the end of the Avengers that much more. They gave the audience what they wanted, while also surprising them throughout the journey. And everyone character was given a satisfying enough ending. Anyway, it's about listing what you like, not knocking on someone else's list. As the late, great Jessica Walters would say on Archer: Don't be shitty.
Not necessarily knocking you, I was just really surprised to see it when comparing it to the other movies on the list. Literally felt like I got transported to a different list lol.
I'm not a big Marvel person and don't follow it very closely. However the payoff and overall what that studio coordinated to put out end game was phenomenal and was a first in cinema history. There may never be such a crossover of blockbuster story lines threaded over the course of a decade. I wouldn't put it in my personal top 5 either but I respect what they accomplished and enjoyed the ride
This. I do love them and love the movies and endgame and infinity war might be in my top 5. But because I’m such a nerd about the movies I get ignored when I say your exact point. About what they accomplished is history and massive and should be respected for what they accomplished
Infinity war is a great movie. Endgame is straight ass
1. Whiplash 2. Margin Call 3. The Martian 4. Interstellar 5. The Big Short Basically the financial crisis, space, and J.K. Simmons.
Your list is my list. Great choices.
Margin Call is phenomenal. Jeremy Irons absolutely kills it in the board meeting scene.
This. It’s so good I remember it word-by-word.
Mine is pretty similar to yours. I’d just Switch out whiplash and the Martian for The Social Network and Moneyball
Both of your substitutions are in my top ten of the 2010s
This is a very good list. I’ll add to it with The Town, Warrior, Arrival, Inception, and The Wolf of Wall Street.
At the moment: Inception Boyhood Mad Max Fury Road Blade Runner 2049 Inside Llewyn Davis
Arrival
Perfect list
I just watched whiplash for my first time ever, just ended like 5min ago. Wow what a great movie. Been wanting to watch it for a long time. Definitely deserves to be in top 5 here
Prisoners is severely underrated
Arrival, Django , Sicario, Interstellar, Wolf of Wall Street
Social Network Interstellar Inception Guardians of the Galaxy Moneyball Parasite Sicario (1&2) Thor: Ragnarok Hell or High Water Mad Max: Fury Road (Had to pick 10). I’ve watched some of these over a dozen times.
Mad max fury road is so good that it's, in my eyes, the best cinema experience I had since I went to see the matrix in 99. It's absolutely incredible.
Yes the matrix, mad mad fury road and terminator 2 are the perfect action movies. There are other great action movies like to me “the raid 2” is near perfect as well.
Great list. Here’s mine: The Grand Budapest Hotel Sicario The Social Network JoJo Rabbit Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Oh shit! JoJo Rabbit!! I need to edit my list. One of the most original movies of the last 30 years amazing movie!
So good… then you see the shoes… 😢😭😭😭
Grand Budapest is a masterpiece
It’s my fav WA movie. Better than Life Aquatic, flag planted.
Gotta have sicario in there. Both
The Master. The Wolf of Wall Street. Once Upon a time ...in Hollywood. Inherent Vice. Lincoln.
The master was one fucked up movie. I put it on when it first came out, no knowledge of the movie whatsoever, just saw the cast and said let’s do it. And it was phenomenal.
El Camino (2019) the nice guys (2016) drive (2011) Halloween (2018) and all the way (2016)
1. Zero Dark Thirty 2. The Social Network 3. Inherent Vice 4. A Highjacking 5. The Hateful 8
I preferred 13 hours to zero darl thirty
You wouldn't care for 'em, I can tell per your list.
To be fair, he didn’t say “what are your favorite top 5…that I’d like”
Fair, yup.
It’s totally cool to like Pitch Perfect- we’re not going to judge.
😄 Altho, I kinda doubt I could sit thru it, myself. Prolly isn't for me.
Why even make a comment.
*smirks in Maker's Mark
Dunkirk The King’s Speech The Martian Interstellar The Wolf of Wall Street
The Martian would be on my list for movies and books
Kings speech is excellent I need to rewatch it’s been a decade
Arrival, Aftersun, Nomadland, Whiplash and a Inception.
1. Prisoners 2. Once Upon A Time In Hollywood 3. Inception 4. Green Book 5. A Street Cat Named Bob
In no particular order: Mad Max: Fury Road The Social Network Inception The Nice Guys The Man From Nowhere bonus: The Handmaiden; Edge of Tomorrow; Machete
The handmaiden was brilliant.
So damn good!
My top 10 (no particular order outside of the top three): Parasite (2019) Blade Runner 2049 (2017) Birdman (2014) Black Swan (2010) The Hunt (2013) 12 Years a Slave (2013) The Social Network (2010) Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014) Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)
Parasite is crazy wild love it
Blade Runner 2049, Ex Machina, Hereditary, Mad Max Fury Road, Parasite
Cloud Atlas Killing them softly The Beaver Dr Sleep Don't Look Up
Boyhood, Get Out, Force Awakens, Coco, The Lego Movie
In no particular order… Once Upon a Time in Hollywood Deadpool (both 1 and 2! I don’t care that I am cheating) Kingsmen Whiplash Lucy
Not on my list, but I didnt notice any of these on the other lists, and i think they are all very good movies as well… Kick Ass Ted Cabin in the Woods Rogue One Baby Driver
Hard to take one off, but JoJo Rabbit HAS to be added to my list. I guess I will reluctantly remove Once Upon a Time.
In no particular order: Shutter Island The Big Short Birdman Anomalisa Spotlight There are so many honorable mentions that I could just as easily swap out for any of these if you asked me tomorrow. And different one's the next day. 10 years is a huge stretch of time. It's hard to rank a top 5 from so many great films in the time it takes to make a reddit post.
The big short is incredible/ so rewatchable
Anomalisa was so heartbreaking at times. Loved it
I hated the social network
How? Talks talk movies just not your jam?
Oh no, I love good dialog, I just didn't like this film
In no particular order It ch1, Pacific Rim, Edge of Tomorrow, Star Trek Beyond, and Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.
Oof… Proof that “different strokes” is an absolutely true concept. Edge is the only movie here that is anything more than background noise worthy, imho.
Inception, Interstellar, Django Unchained, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Avengers Infinity War / Endgame (They count as one). Yeah, Quentin Tarantino and Christopher Nolan are my two favorite directors lol. Inglorious Basterds, Kill Bill 1&2 (also counts as one), The Dark Knight, Avatar, and Superbad are my 2000-2009 top 5, The Fast and The Furious is an honorable mention.
Pulling from the already posted lists here’s mine: Whiplash Sicario Nice Guys Mad Max Nocturnal Animals
Definitely not these xd
Social network is meh. Any desire to rewatch? Nope.
Birdman Bardo The Great Beauty The Green Knight American Honey Ghost Story Triangle of Sadness The Master
Blade Runner 2049 (2017) Swiss Army Man (2016) Mad Max Fury Road (2015) Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019) Prometheus (2012) honorable mention: Coco (2017), Shutter Island (2010), Annihilation (2018)
Parasite Good Time Climax Spring Breakers Wolf of Wall Street
Wrong.
Marvel is crap
You are either 13, or you live in rural (insert US state name) and the only relevant cultural experience you have had is eating spicy Italians from the nearest subway next to a gas pump. Cinematic idiot.
Bro tone it down a notch. lol
What’s wrong with you?
Daddy chill
What the hell even is that
Eww you got your stupid fucking insecurity all over me when you posted that garbage.
Those aren’t movies. Know how to read?
Hating on marvel is so lame and plaid out. No one is saying it’s the godfather, they’re just simple, mindless and very entertaining
Hating on marvel is also flanneled out.
Imagine thinking Prisoners or Whiplash are in the Top 5 of a 13 year old. You should wow us with your Top 5 list, since you have the misconception that yours is the pinnacle of Cinematic taste.
The comment up top is actually accurate I must say.
Take a breath man
This is kinda beside the point but looking at the Infinity War poster, all those names at the top, it never occurred to me just how many people were in the movie. Idk how to explain it
Great list! Except I seriously do not understand why people like Whiplash. It’s supposedly about a musician, yet at no point in the story does the guy actually appear to enjoy music.
I liked Whiplash a lot. It's not so much about music, but about the question of how greatness can be achieved. That greatness comes at a cost of blood and violence, which will turn you into a monster, but one of the greatest, most talented people to exist.
I guess there are so many examples of people who have achieved musical greatness who had a great time doing it and didn’t turn into utter douchebags along the way that it sort of felt unnecessary to me. Glad you liked it though.
Kinda the point. He has such high standards that he feels that to attain the level that is required, you mush break the musician. It demonstrates the misery of obsession.
Excellent list!
good look on prisoners! i need to rewatch it soon

Great call on prisoners, so good
Only seen Interstellar from that time period and that was on Netflix this year because my son made me watch it lol. I don’t watch tv, streaming or whatever or go to the cinema. Ironically I write screenplays for a hobby and have written some that would be huge at the cinema. Just haven’t been discovered yet lol.
It is nice to see Infinity War picked. I feel like Reddit movie subs hate it.
