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.
This "smart," "wonderfully heartfelt" romantic comedy stars Zoe Kazan and Silicon Valley's Kumail Nanjiani, who wrote the script with wife Emily V. Gordon. The real-life couple based the story on their courtship—and the health crisis that struck Gordon. Look for the film to expand nationwide in July.
“One of the best things about The Big Sick is that the obstacles facing this relationship are real and relatable. It’s a funny movie, but it’s about really serious stuff.” —Matt Singer, ScreenCrush
