- “I Lost My Body” These days, Netflix’s strategy appears to be outspending the competition to enable ambitious auteur’s dream projects, like “Roma” and “The Irishman,” but the bigger budgets don’t necessarily make for better movies.
- “The Two Popes” Jonathan Pryce and Anthony Hopkins both deserve Oscar nominations as the impressive pair of papal protagonists who make Fernando Meirelles’ crackling two-hander the season’s most unexpected delight.
- “Girl” A tender, thought-provoking coming-of-gender story, this stunning Belgian drama puts audiences in the shoes — or rather, the ballet slippers — of a teenager in transition.
- “Marriage Story” Noah Baumbach made a big stink when Netflix bought “The Meyerowitz Stories,” only to become a convert when it went on to become the most widely seen movie of his career.
- Tell Me Who I Am. Tell Me Who I Am isn’t the first film (or the first story) to grapple with the effects that a lie can have on someone. Those lies can be weaponized to thwart a superhero, or they can be used to justify horrific actions sanctioned by the government.
- High Flying Bird. High Flying Bird tells the story of a sports agent caught in the crosshairs of an NBA lockout who tries to end it on his own. A strong script from Moonlight screenwriter Tarell Alvin McCraney and a leading performance from André Holland make a potentially insider story compelling, and the film takes on the NBA’s long history of exploiting Black athletes in the process.
- The Irishman. In The Irishman, an elderly Frank Sheeran (Robert De Niro) reflects on his relationship with Jimmy Hoffa (Al Pacino), the union leader who famously went missing (and who Sheeran admitted to murdering late in life).
- After Maria. After Maria follows three women living out of a New York hotel. Forced to flee their homes in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria, the women are about to be displaced once again, this time by FEMA.
- The Irishman. Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, Joe Pesci. 168 votes. In the epic crime saga The Irishman, Frank Sheeran (Robert De Niro), a labor union leader and hitman, recounts his life's journey through the murky waters of organized crime.
- Always Be My Maybe. Ali Wong, Randall Park, Michelle Buteau. 526 votes. In the vibrant rom-com, Always Be My Maybe, childhood pals Sasha Tran (Ali Wong) and Marcus Kim (Randall Park), navigate love's rocky terrain.
- The Highwaymen. Kevin Costner, Woody Harrelson, Kathy Bates. 343 votes. Former Texas Rangers Frank Hamer and Maney Gault join forces to try and capture notorious outlaws Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow.
- Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile. Zac Efron, Lily Collins, Haley Joel Osment. 562 votes. In Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile, the sinister world of Ted Bundy (Zac Efron) unfolds.
