With the year drawing to a close, what's your pick for your top movie of 2025, and why?

My favorite so far would be One Battle After Another. Great movie. 

Horror-wise Sinners is my favorite, but i think its mostly because of how its directed and the use of music and visual cues. I quite enjoyed Weapons, Companion and Bring her Back but i did feel all 3 were overhyped and a bit overratd. Im yet to watch Good Boy and the Long Walk. Didnt care much for FD Bloodlines. 

Minus the ending, i really liked 28 years later. It wasnt what i expected, but i still feel what it was worked great. The ending (final scenes) was weird. 

I liked Frankenstein, but i feel the writing is nowhere near as good as the cinematography. So it ended up being not very memorable imo. Honestly a bit of wasted potential imo, but im not too crazy over the source material either tbh 

I recently watched the new Knives Out movie and Jay Kelly and even tho neither is particularly great, both are quite enjoyable and I would recommend them, they are both an easy watch imo. Adam Sandler works great in dramatic nuanced roles. 

Disappointed by Phoenician Scheme. Expected more. Wes Anderson is slowly becoming a parody of himself and that doesnt work well, his style is great but he needs more focused plots imo. 

Ill be watching Eternity and Bugonia this weekend, and im looking forward to Marty Supreme, the mastermind and Avatar. Theres a lot of films from this year that wont be releasing in my country until next year's award season, i really hate that.
