[Film] What is your best Film of 2019 ?

[Uncle Spielberg]

With the schedule more or less done and dusted now what is your best film of 2019 ?

 

[blue-shifted]

Joker

 

[Medwayseagull]

Joker

I think he was trying to ask a serious question.

 

[The Clamp]

Favourite: The Peanut Butter Falcon
Least favourite: Blue Story.

 

[MattBackHome]

We haven't had Rise of Skywalker yet innit.

 

[Biscuit Barrel]

Favourite: The Peanut Butter Falcon
Least favourite: Blue Story.

The Red Story is probably more up your street.

 

[The Clamp]

The Red Story is probably more up your street.

What’s that then?

 

[GOM]

I wonder how many will be from recent releases as the earlier ones are forgotten. Probably most.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Pretty thin year for film IMHO. Think my favourite waste of time of 2019 would have to be the very watchable, strictly bonkers Midsommar

 

[Palacefinder General]

We haven't had Rise of Skywalker yet innit.

That’s being saved for the upcoming ‘Worst film of the decade’ thread later this month. #BadTimes

The Irishman followed closely by Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.

Most disappointing Rocketman and Ad Adastra

 

[GOM]

Not many standouts but I have enjoyed a few this year, Stan and Ollie, Green Book even Dumbo. No blockbusters although not watched Joker yet.

 

[brakespear]

Stan and Ollie was great. Endgame too

 

[Bob'n'weave]

The Irishman.

Pesci should get an Oscar for his performance IMO.

 

[vegster]

Stan and Ollie and Joker stood out for me but for different reasons. Joker was disturbing but an amazing performance from Phoenix but, Stan and Ollie win it for me for being a " feel good " film with a marvellous heart and two brilliant performances from the leads.

Watch Joker and then revisit thread, stand out for me.

 

[Stat Brother]

Yep another shout for The Peanut Butter Falcon.

It's fairly route 1.
The influences are there for all to see.
But that doesn't detractor from the fact it's a bloody good film brilliantly acted.


It's certainly stayed with me the longest.

 

[Ninja Elephant]

I've seen 100 films in the cinema in 2019, I keep a list on IMDb and give a rating after each one.

My top 5 are;

1) Joker
2) One Upon a Time in Hollywood
3) Knives Out
4) Alita: Battle Angel
5) Green Book

Bottom 5 are;

96) The Hustle
97) Mary Queen of Scots
98) Hellboy
99) The Kid Who Would Be King
--------------------------------------------
100) Holmes and Watson ( )

Some things to note, I haven't had the required week to watch The Irishman yet, and I didn't include El Camino because it wasn't in the cinema. I have a feeling that Motherless Brooklyn might be a challenger for the top 5, but that's based on a feeling rather than anything else. Jumanji will be fun as well, I'm sure.

 

[The Lemming Stomper]

.


Brilliant Korean film 'Parasite' way ahead of anything for me

Surely it can’t be worse than The Last Jedi I say that in hope more than anything...
