 LIST WEEK RULES  RECAP:

- It doesn't matter what year the film was made as long as I saw it for the first time in 2024.

- I have to watch the film in it's entirety for it to make a list


Now it's time for the main event, THE LIST YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR! The BEST films I saw in 2024. I absolutely loved these films that appear on this list and I can't recommend them enough, hopefully if you haven't seen them you give them a chance! Let's begin!!!



20. I LOST MY BODY (2019)


A captivating and tragically beautiful film go and watch it if you haven't already.




19. MARGIN CALL (2011)


A stock market drama that is intense and bleak, the ending wraps this film up nicely.




18. THE BEEKEEPER (2024)


This was an awesome popcorn flick full of action, definitely a fun hour and a half. 




17. A QUIET PLACE: DAY ONE (2024)


My first experience with the Quiet Place franchise and it was great.





16. DANTE'S INFERNO (2007)


I absolutely love animated films that are aimed at adults and the older demographic, This film in particular is so unique, set out as a puppet show this film was so entertaining it has a lot of charm.





15. BOY KILLS WORLD (2023)


A bonkers film full of action and gore this movie is a great piece of cinema to turn your brain off too.





14. GEORGE WASHINGTON (2000)


A coming of age drama that reminds me of the film "Stand By Me", There is a certain kind of innocence that comes with this film that slowly dismantles itself, leaving you not knowing how to feel when it's all said and done. Incredibly powerful.






13. DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE (2024)


The team up that everyone wanted and it delivered on everything it said it would be. Deadpool's MCU debut was a complete success.





12. ABIGAIL (2024)


I went to go and see this film thinking it was going to be a forgettable horror film and it ended up blowing me away with how good it actually was, can't recommend it enough.






11. ALL DOGS GO TO HEAVEN (1989)


Really loved this movie, it was a heart warming story full of emotion.






10. GLADIATOR II (2024)


This movie was a blood and soaked spectacle and I expected nothing less, ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!?! yes, yes I was.





9.  ALIEN: ROMULUS (2024)


This film was a real return to form for the Alien franchise and I can't recommend it to you enough. 






8. THE APPRENTICE (2024)


A well acted, all round gripping film Sebastian Stans performance is a real highlight as he doesn't try to over do it.






7. THE SADNESS (2021)


Hands down the best zombie film I saw this year, the amount of over the top blood shed was so satisfying.




 6. BEAU IS AFRAID (2023)


I can't do any justice as to how bonkers this film actually is, please go and watch this for yourself.




5. TRANSFORMERS ONE (2024)


The people who made this film are clearly huge fans of the Transformers franchise. Transformers One is full of heart and big on the emotional impact. the script, voice acting, animation etc. is just perfect. Transformers One is a movie for young and old alike.





4. NEFARIOUS (2023)


I thought this was going to be a B movie and when I sat down to watch it I was completely blown away. Sean Patrick Flannery stole the show as the big bad and carries this movie on his back.





3. BONES AND ALL (2022)


This movie draws you in and holds you there and in a way it's mesmerizing. The chemistry between our two leads made it feel like you were actually there in the moment with them. It fills you full of emotion right up until the soul crushing end.



2. ROBOT DREAMS (2023)


This film builds you up and breaks you down. There are life lessons in this film that everyone should learn, the animation was fantastic and worked so well with the story they were trying to tell. Loved it and definitely recommend.


1. THE WILD ROBOT (2024)


I put off watching this film when it came to cinemas for so long. I eventually caved and in the final weeks of its theatrical run got myself a ticket. I knew I wouldn't like the movie going into it. I had never been so wrong about a film in all my life. It pulled on the heartstrings hard and was fantastic so fantastic that it takes out the top spot on my best films list PLEASE go and see this film it's worth your time and you won't be disappointed.

THE TOXIC AVENGER (1984) REVIEW

  A pure master-class in 80s schlock! Buckets of gore, the hammiest of acting and a story that is completely over the top, what more do you ...
