There are still a few movies to be released (https://www.movieinsider.com/movies/2024), but it’s still probably a good time to have a look at the best movies from 2024 and discuss them.
There will be similar threads on [email protected], and probably [email protected]
Feel free to comment with the movies you liked the most, ideally one comment per movie so that other people can chime in and discuss.
Dune 2: Villeneuve knows how to make a film feel BIG and significant. The second part topped the first for me. Only Walkens role was kinda disappointing.
The Substance: This one took me by surprise. I thought I wouldn’t see any more bangers this year but I just watched this a week ago and loved every second of it!
The Zone of Interest: Such an interesting and effective concept. Hard for me to talk about it due to the topic but very recommended to watch.
Furiosa: Does not beat Fury Road but is pretty close! Fun, loud, explosive!
Promised Land: Mads, I will work on your land for free.
Longlegs: While it fell down a bit in the third act, it was a great film with a very cool performance by Cage.
The Holdovers: An oldschool Christmas movie that warms the heart (it was released January in Germany)
Honorable mentions:
Young Woman and the Sea: Very inspiring and great performance by Ridley.
Inside Out 2: Doesn’t get close to the first film but the depiction of an anxious attack hit home for me.
