  1. Ralph Breaks the Internet
    It’s here that directors Phil Johnston and Rich Moore, armed with a screenplay cowritten by Johnston and Pamela Ribon, find a common ground between family-friendly entertainment and sharp social satire.
  2. October Sky
    The film is rich in period flavor and refreshingly unhip.
  3. War Game
    War Game concentrates a lot on the “how to” part. But it also says a lot about how eerily easy and how horrifyingly relatable the “why” of it all is.
  4. Red Eye
    The gripping, seat- clutching suspense in this baby will pin you to your seat.
  5. Proxima
    What’s dredged up by every bit of the film’s fabric and style is a sense of isolation.
  6. Tangled
    Disney's spirited re-telling of Rapunzel in 3D animation turns out to be a dazzler.
  7. Edge of Tomorrow
    Liman keeps the action and surprises coming nonstop. OK, the end is a head-scratcher. Until then, Cruise and Blunt make dying a hugely entertaining game of chance.
  8. The Opportunists
    Modestly made and modestly charming.
    • Rolling Stone
  9. Wonderstruck
    A film of extraordinary details that adds up to less than the sum of its parts. But, oh, it gives a lovely light.
  10. Hacksaw Ridge
    Thanks to some of the greatest battle scenes ever filmed, Gibson once again shows his staggering gifts as a filmmaker, able to juxtapose savagery with aching tenderness.
  11. That Thing You Do!
    Hanks works like a sketch artist feeling his way before attempting a large canvas. His material is slight, but his writing and directing have an unforced humor and an unhurried grace that suggest he may be a natural.
  12. Divide and Conquer: The Story of Roger Ailes
    A well-researched and richly observant documentary from Alexis Bloom about the climate of lies and systemic abuse that nurtured Ailes and allowed his behavior to flourish.
  13. Everybody's Everything
    Yes, it’s grim and gloomy — and like Lil Peep’s music, there’s also a sense of catharsis in all of this. More than anything, Jones and Silyan seem to be fashioning a postmortem that plays like his greatest hits, in which wounded wooziness somehow gives way to exhilaration and a warped sense of uplift.
  14. Without Limits
    Towne defines Pre not by the freak car accident that killed him but by his willful need to keep on pushing. It’s Pre’s defiant spirit that makes Without Limits something worth cheering.
  15. 22 Jump Street
    Thanks to this team of merry pranksters, 22 Jump Street hurts so good.
  16. Exit 8
    You enter this unlikely, but undeniably extraordinary take on a video game ready to be spooked. You exit it with the sensation that you’ve just witnessed a waking nightmare perfect for Tokyo commuters and Brooklyn sad dads alike.
  17. Erupcja
    Erupcja knows what’s it’s working with, and how to tap into something bigger than itself.
  18. Young Adult
    In this tale of stunted development, Theron is a comic force of nature, giving her character considerable density and humanity despite her monstrous aspects.
  19. Gemini
    It may feel insubstantial at times, but somewhere out there, there's a twin of this film that lays on the L.A. Self-Owns Itself mojo in thick clumps. Gemini is the good-sibling version. It's worth a whirl.
  20. Brad's Status
    Thanks to Stiller's prodigious gifts at blending comedy and drama, it's hard not to see ourselves in Brad's besieged humanity. That's the thing with Stiller and White – they make you laugh till it hurts.
  21. The Pledge
    In crafting a fierce, fragmented, downbeat film about a character who makes the wrong decision as a man by being right as a cop, Penn flies in the face of what sells in Hollywood. Godspeed.
  22. Nicholas Nickleby
    Christopher Plummer steals the show without resorting to camp as Nicholas' wounded and wounding Uncle Ralph. It's a great performance and a reminder of Dickens' grandeur. This Cliff's Notes of a film, though lively fun, only hints at that.
  23. Aileen: Life and Death of a Serial Killer
    Shocking and indispensable viewing.
  24. The Score
    There's more suspense in watching Brando, who has trouble with physical exertion, get on and off a bar stool than the robbery itself. Still, Brando -- his eyes alive with mischief --is the life of the movie.
  25. The Road Home
    The director finds poetry in the face of his lead actress, whose performance is as luminous and moving as the film itself.
  26. A Quiet Place Part II
    Part II feels like just another case of sequel-itis, something designed to metastasize into just another franchise among many. Just get through this, it says, and then tune in next year, next summer, next financial quarter statement or board-meeting announcement, for the real story.
  27. Mad Hot Ballroom
    Listening to the kids talk is a treat in itself, but watching them strut their stuff in the final competition is enough to make you stand up and cheer.
  28. Bronson
    This movie and Hardy's electrifying performance will knock you for a loop.
  29. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
    From him (Fincher), we get – what? – a faithful adaptation that brings the dazzle but shortchanges on the daring.
