The 25 Best Movies of 2017 So Far
Wonder Woman is helping to save Hollywood. The superhero movie, starring Gal Gadot as the Amazon warrior, is one of only a handful of big-budget studio films that made our rundown of the most critically acclaimed films of the year to date.
Our list features the 25 highest-scoring films with at least 15 reviews from professional critics that were released in theaters in the United States between January 1st and June 30th. (Note that though you'll see rounded Metascores, the films are ranked prior to rounding.) Naturally, the roster is heavy on foreign-language and art-house titles, but it also includes three box-office blockbusters.
A "valentine" to Istanbul, this "splendidly graceful and quietly magical documentary" uses seven street cats to showcase the iconic metropolis. Since opening in American theaters in February, it has played on and on, doing steady business in limited release.
“Eloquently taps into the mutual attraction between the cats and their people, as well as the animals’ complexity and resilience.” —Sheri Linden, The Hollywood Reporter
