  1. Day of the Dead: Bloodline
    No ifs, ands or Bubs about it, the memory of Day Of The Dead: Bloodline will decay at lightning speed. There’s nothing new here that Romero didn’t do better, only a downgraded horror watch with lesser value.
  2. Before I Wake
    Before I Wake is a beautiful, meditative ghost story with one of the more rewarding horror payoffs I’ve seen in years.
  3. Inside
    This year's Inside remake swaps Bustillo and Maury's brutalization levels for beyond-generic thrills that are more frustrating than fierce - whatever that's worth.
  4. Knights of Badassdom
    Dear Joe Lynch, please let me see your Director’s Cut ASAP? Knights Of Badassdom is an unfinished product, but it passes based on the content our director was able to salvage.
  5. Insidious: The Last Key
    Though not a terrible film, Insidious: The Last Key fails to live up to the franchise's high standards.
    • 29 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Bright
    It’s a flawed, frustrating film made even more lackluster by its failure to explore its own weighty themes and its apparent refusal to connect those themes to its story and characters.
  7. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle
    Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle is both a fulfilling reinvention and adventurous video game quest that’s far funnier, and unexpectedly exciting, than you could hope for from an evolved reboot with explosive fantasy character.
  8. Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi
    Star Wars: The Last Jedi is striking, stunning, visually hypnotizing, thrilling - everything "epic" about the famed franchise rolled into a tremendously overcharged start to Rian Johnson's Star Wars career.
  9. Birdboy: The Forgotten Children
    Psychonauts, the Forgotten Children is bizarre, imaginative and beautiful, but it's also crying out for a stronger narrative.
  10. Justice League
    Justice League is a sloppy team-up film that doesn't even take time to properly introduce pivotal members of its titular team, but when you're playing a dangerous (also ill-advised) game of catch up, these are the risks.
  11. Coco
    This is a masterpiece of woven ancestral roots and the importance of “familia,” confident in song and poetic in vision.
  12. Thelma
    Thelma doesn't exactly tell a unique story, but Joachim Trier's vision is so strong you'll barely even notice.
  13. Mayhem
    Mayhem is a wonderfully violent middle finger to corporate culture, gleeful in its desire to redecorate cubicles with red blood splatters.
  14. Murder on the Orient Express
    Murder On The Orient Express is an antique mystery that chugs along at 5-miles an hour without any turns that might jolt viewers in the slightest.
  15. Thor: Ragnarok
    This is a very funny, perfectly scored...exciting, albeit overlong exercise in pushing MCU boundaries to their franchise breaking point.
  16. Jigsaw
    Jigsaw feels like a forced hodgepodge of previous franchise entries that never carves its own identity, making you question what prompted such an expected reboot these few years later.
  17. Amityville: The Awakening
    Franck Khalfoun’s often-rethought Amityville: The Awakening is sleepover background noise at its best, traceable genre road-mapping at its worst.
  18. Leatherface
    Leatherface is an origin story that attempts to carve new mythos for one of horror's mightiest legends, but ends up leaning on franchise references and bleakness to an unnecessary fault.
  19. Jungle
    Daniel Radcliffe does what he can to elevate the survival story at the heart of Jungle, but the film's awkward pacing and over-reliance on cliche hold him back.
  20. Happy Death Day
    Happy Death Day is a generic PG-13 horror purgatory that's lived on repeat until even weaker motivations take us farther out of any semblance of storytelling thrills.
  21. Professor Marston & the Wonder Women
    Professor Marston is a sweet, saucy biopic about unconventional love and iconic origins (plus bondage!).
  22. Blade Runner 2049
    The latest Denis Villeneuve achievement, Blade Runner 2049 is the rare sequel that both pushes the franchise to challenging new places and serves as a natural extension of what's come before.
  23. Cabin Fever: Patient Zero
    Cabin Fever: Patient Zero certainly lives up to Eli Roth's gory standards, but individual enjoyment will hinge on one's love of schlocky B-Movie antics.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Kingsman: The Secret Service
    A brazen, subversive send-up of 007, Kingsman: The Secret Service also has the high-octane excitement to work as a spy film on its own merits.
  25. American Made
    Overall, this isn’t a bad movie, just one that feels at odds with itself. Despite its flaws though, American Made is a fun enough ride and features yet another winsome Cruise performance.
  26. Last Flag Flying
    Four powerhouse performances cannot quite make Richard Linklater's occasionally moving dramedy, Last Flag Flying, into more than a minor war movie.
  27. Jeepers Creepers 3
    Lacking in imagination or genuine scares, Jeepers Creepers 3 falls tragically short on just about every front.
  28. Kingsman: The Golden Circle
    Vaughn sticks to what he knows with his Kingsman sequel but rarely ups the ante, making this a fun-enough entry into an already-too-familiar franchise.
  29. Stronger
    Stronger complicates the notion of the public hero in its heartfelt telling of Boston marathon bombing survivor Jeff Bauman's story, with terrific performances from Jake Gyllenhaal and Tatiana Maslany.
  30. Molly's Game
    Aaron Sorkin’s indelible wit and naturally fervent performances from Jessica Chastain and Idris Elba prevent Molly’s Game from drawing dead.
  31. mother!
    Your toleration of mother! will be determined by movie-going patience. Aronofsky is painting with some blistering broad strokes, but they’re just that – broad and undefined.
  32. The Show
    This Is Your Death is a brilliant concept, but tonal mishandling makes for another media takedown that's all bark and no bite.
  33. Indivisible
    It’s always a shame when a promising film doesn’t quite stick the landing, but Indivisible is still undeniably a striking bit of work.
  34. The Killing of a Sacred Deer
    The Killing of a Sacred Deer envelops you in its strange, disturbing world with the manipulative skill of a true surrealist master.
  35. It
    As far as mainstream horror goes, It is a brilliant example of what can happen when equal attention is paid to story and scares.
  36. Bushwick
    Murnion and Milott’s Bushwick feels like a John Carpenter film without the societal skewering. A nasty, hate-filled movie with shaky detailing.
  37. Lemon
    Bravo’s abundance of inexplicable details makes for an interesting conundrum at first, but mystery soon fades.
  38. Good Time
    Good Time is just that and little more, but Robert Pattinson's performance deserves praise like "career-defining" and "best yet."
  39. Patti Cake$
    Patti Cake$ is a feel-good freestyle phenom that heals through artistic passion and shrugs of wackness, indulgent in highs but not shying away from crushing lows.
  40. The Hitman's Bodyguard
    As the word “m#th&rf$ck*r” loses meaning, you can’t help but appreciate a wholly predictable – yet unapologetically confident – action goof that’s far funnier than it should be.
  41. Better Watch Out
    Better Watch Out is a good movie you should watch knowing nothing about, like a spoiler-free Christmas morning.
  42. Ingrid Goes West
    Ingrid Goes West is the kind of social media satire we need, even if a tone-shifting second act drives focus from mental health to less interesting criminal goofiness.
  43. Annabelle: Creation
    Annabelle: Creation is no lifeless dummy. Plotting may run a bit thin and coincidental, but David F. Sandberg whips up bone-chilling scares and hefty doses of peek-through-your-fingers imagery.
  44. Detroit
    Detroit is, for lack of a better term, a pornographic echo chamber of resentment. Trying to put out a fire with ten more tankers full of gasoline.
  45. The Dark Tower
    Director Nikolaj Arcel blends dystopian weirdness and temporal hellbeasts until all that remains is an emulsified, grey gunk, which is then forced down our throats for 95 minutes. Flavor gone, identifiers eviscerated.
  46. Logan Lucky
    If your script is good enough to pull Steven Soderbergh from “retirement,” color me intrigued. Such is true of Logan Lucky. An Ocean’s 7-11 hootenanny with Southern charm and Coen sensibilities.
  47. Dunkirk
    With tighter scripting, this’d be a masterpiece. As is? Christopher Nolan has produced a damn-fine picture that goes against most of what his catalog has become renowned for in a good, streamlined way.
  48. Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets
    Valerian And The City Of A Thousand Planets is a fantasy adventure that’s nowhere near as adventurous or fantastical as it should be.
  49. Killing Ground
    What Backcountry did for campfire creature attacks Killing Ground does for murderous bushmen in the same setting.
  50. 68 Kill
    Haaga knows what works, and ensures that we get heavy doses of the good stuff (although more Alisha Boe would have been nice).
  51. Wish Upon
    Wish Upon is a Final Destination redux that pulls too many punches.
  52. The Persian Connection
    The Loner is a hyper-surreal tale of neo-noir revenge, boasting Middle-Eastern influences that unlock new aspects of an age-old genre.
  53. Inside Out
    Delightful, inventive and deeply affecting, Inside Out embodies the very best of what Pixar has to offer.
  54. A Ghost Story
    A Ghost Story leads you down a path that allows for personal reflection, which will either sooth lost souls or scare them away.
  55. The Rehearsal
    The Rehearsal is much like any coming-of-age melodrama, and while its meat is a little overdone, its intro and finale bookends do make up for a lack of flavor in between.
  56. Despicable Me 3
    Despicable Me 3 hits a supervillain high with Balthazar Bratt, but also a franchise low as far as Gru and Dru's brotherly reunion is concerned.
  57. The Big Sick
    This is a movie about life. Bigger than love. Bigger than hope. Bigger than anything. Just life, and all its attempts to wear you down – and how you’ll never let it.
  58. Spider-Man: Homecoming
    It may not quite reach the heights of Raimi’s Spider-Man 2, but Spider-Man: Homecoming emerges as one of the character’s strongest films to date, granting him a clean slate and infinite room to grow.
  59. The Little Hours
    The Little Hours is saved by Fred Armisen and Kate Miccuci, the only performers who don't suffer from the film's one-note delivery at some point.
  60. The Vatican Tapes
    The Vatican Tapes relies heavily on its third act, but if you can stomach its more generic beginnings, you'll be treated to an exorcism story with higher stakes than normal.
  61. The Collection
    The Collection is one of those horror films that really makes you sound like a deranged psychopath for recommending, but demands to be spread like a mind-controlling plague.
  62. Area 51
    Area 51 is everything that's wrong with not only found footage films, but also weak-minded sci-fi thrillers that think crazed talking heads and fuzzy shadows are scary enough.
  63. The Scribbler
    While The Scribbler isn't exactly in contention with the best that the comic book genre has to offer, Katie Cassidy utilizes the numerous voices in her head to create a unique hero for a bit of stylized freshness.
  64. V/H/S: Viral
    Grab on for dear life and expect a freakish, wild, and seriously f#cked up ride from start to finish - which, of course, is every horror fan's dream.
    • 28 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Survivor
    Relentlessly dumb yet royally entertaining, Survivor sometimes approaches the realm of being “so bad it’s good.”
  66. Dirty Grandpa
    It lives up - or rather down - to its title, sending its stars on a hedonistic road trip with a pink Mini Cooper's worth of sexist, racist, homophobic and ugly jokes for company.
  67. Okja
    Okja is a wild, tender tale of wonderment and friendship, delightful but still with smacks of vile consumerism darkness.
  68. War for the Planet of the Apes
    While War for the Planet of the Apes's third act is a bit hairy, the sequel helps cement the franchise as one of the more exciting mainstream properties worth watching.
  69. The Book of Henry
    The Book of Henry is a hair away from being in league with the most ludicrous Lifetime original movies, but its cast, slick production and Trevorrow’s willingness to take risks make it an oddball chunk of entertainment you’ll be sure to tell your friends about, whether you liked, loved or loathed it.
  70. The Beguiled
    The Beguiled is a deliciously dangerous period thriller that refuses to let a man's privilege go unchecked like the Hollywood standard.
  71. Transformers: The Last Knight
    Bay's latest Transformer title is a daunting behemoth of a film and you can feel every ounce of dead weight, as sins of the past are committed without any signs of stopping.
  72. 47 Meters Down
    47 Meters Down navigates choppy waters, but ultimately manages to deliver some prime summer-time screams.
  73. Cars 3
    Cars 3 isn’t remarkable or groundbreaking or even all that memorable, but it’s a rock-solid movie that leaves a far better taste in the mouth than its critically panned predecessors.
  74. Rough Night
    Rough Night is a seriously funny movie led by some seriously funny ladies, but even more impressive is a mainstream comedy that relies not on cheap shocks like many who have come before.
  75. Night School
    Night School exposes the individualism of poverty and the power that education can bring to the powerless.
  76. It Comes at Night
    If you believe horror shines blackest when hardest to decipher, 2017’s horror crop may never best this effort. For me, it’s a Mortal Kombat finisher that punches through your ribcage with heart-in-hand – but the fight itself is a bit too talkative.
  77. The Mummy
    This isn’t a new breed of terror, just another neutered reboot churning all the same mainstream gears.
  78. Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie
    Its shamelessly sophomoric sense of humor only sporadically leans into inspired territory, but while it may not arrive as an instant classic, the ambitiously titled Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie easily stands among the best animated films of the year so far.
  79. Wonder Woman
    Wonder Woman is a gorgeous, powerful display of epic storytelling that makes me wish this was Gadot’s first chance to play Diana Prince. It’s the roaring introduction she deserves, and a hopeful shift in DC culture that hints at what’s about to come.
  80. Baywatch
    You’ll find laughs, zaniness and plenty of signature slow-motion jiggling, but it’s buried under a burdensome two-hour procedural.
  81. War Machine
    Michôd’s military dramedy is more about press tours, TV interviews and power plays. That’s what makes this Netflix new release redeeming in its political poignancy – but having Brad Pitt doesn’t hurt.
  82. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales
    Dead men may tell no tales, but with Disney's latest Pirates sequel, I'm not convinced that living men can tell tales with any more intrigue.
  83. Martyrs
    Martyrs is the exact movie we feared it'd be - a forgettable remake of a far more prolific foreign success story.
  84. Snatched
    While Snatched stars big names in Schumer and Hawn, the ones you'll be remembering are Cusack, Meloni and Barinholtz.
  85. The Wall
    Aaron Taylor-Johnson deserves more credit as an actor, because he's the only reason this Iraq War thriller hobbles steadily on two legs.
  86. Take Me
    Take Me is a sunny little daydream about fetishistic domination, spun around one man’s jabby little gender battle. There is a sweetness to it all, as well as an undeniable creep factor.
  87. King Arthur: Legend of the Sword
    Excitement is fleeting, dialogue rambles and Jude Law’s tyrant-approved throne slouch pretty much sums the film’s overall attitude – a hearty “meh,” worthy of no diamond-studded crown.
  88. Alien: Covenant
    Scott’s latest is a thrill-ride that blasts through celestial carnage, while building a bigger Alien world that might not be 100% necessary. Out of all the films in the franchise, Alien: Covenant has the least stand-alone potential – but dammit if it’s not a wild, warp-speed-killing-machine adventure.
  89. 3 Generations
    About Ray is not, in the end, a triumph, but is still good and necessary viewing for its subject matter.
  90. Rupture
    Rupture is the kind of ill-conceived film that gives Michael Chiklis the campy role while keeping Peter Stormare on background duty.
  91. Super Dark Times
    Debuts shouldn’t be this tense or composed, yet Super Dark Times is an instantaneous must-see.
  92. Hounds of Love
    Directorial debuts are rarely this poised, devastating or dangerous.
  93. The Pirates of Somalia
    Despite an excellent secondary cast and an interesting story, Dabka fails in its aspirations due almost entirely to its own smugness.
  94. The Clapper
    The Clapper is a sharp combination of sweet romance and biting satire on the cruelties committed in the name of entertainment.
  95. The Trip to Spain
    Conversational drama (ala Linklater’s Before franchise), plates piled with last-meal dinner fantasies, unparalleled improv – third time is still the charm, but Michael Winterbottom lets the stew boil a bit too long.
  96. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
    Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2 is the deranged Marvel disco you’d expect from a filmmaker who wants to push the limits of an otherwise rigid and structured system.
  97. The Circle
    A half-baked thriller with a strong cast and a few good ideas, The Circle lacks originality, immediacy, or basic coherence.
  98. Manifesto
    As a work of cinematic art, it defies codification. It begs for multiple viewings, if only to pick apart the concepts that it introduces, changes, and interacts with over the course of its run time.
  99. Buster's Mal Heart
    Despite its undoubted ambition and an excellent central performance from Rami Malek, Buster’s Mal Heart slips into the traps that so often face thrillers of its type.
  100. The Dinner
    An imperfect but fascinating film, The Dinner's stellar cast delivers a deeply troubling and psychologically complex treatment of class and family.
