Top 10 movies from the year 2023

Everything with a (personal) Plot twist or mind f**k in the middle or at the end I watched!

(Complete personal view) This contains content that surprised me towards the end of the film/series (whatever) with the (for me) unpredictable twist. Sometimes it can also be content which just leaved me with an empty brain alone...

No guarantee for proper arrangement (everything is just a personal opinion)! This list is growing and expanding over time...

22

Everything "Sci-Fi/Fantasy" related stuff I watched!

For example, the official definition: Science fiction (sometimes shortened to sci-fi or SF) is a genre of speculative fiction which typically deals with imaginative and futuristic concepts such as advanced science and technology, space exploration, time travel, parallel universes, and extraterrestrial life.

87 2023 releases seen.

12 The Creator - While granted, it didn't do much original with the story. For me at least, it was solid world-building, that felt complete and I'll always have a bias to an original IP Sci-fi with a mid-budget that looked as good as it did. Because if you don't support them, enjoy the only sci-fi's we get to be more superhero stuff.

11 How to Blow Up a Pipeline - Small budget, felt real, good messaging without feeling over the top since all the characters had different motivations for the actions.

10 Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret. - The first of two coming-of-age movies, set in 1970/1 released in 2023. Heartfelt with some really top-shelf performances, Abby Ryder Fortson and Rachel McAdams.

9 Asteroid City - One that seemed to be quite polarizing, and while I understand why it might not make someone's top list, I have zero clue how it made some people's worst lists. If this is on your worst movies of the year list, you need to watch more things like Expenfourbles.

8 Sisu - Good by John Wick 4, hello Sisu for my top action movie of the year by a significant margin. Not too much to say, apart from its tight 91-minute runtime, loaded full of brutal Nazi murder.

7 Full Time - I saw a trailer for Anatomy of a Fall which it was labeled "The Most Tense Movie of the year", unfortunately for Anatomy of a Fall for me, that award goes firmly to Full Time. I had to pause the movie at a certain point because my nerves needed a break, only to see I was only 20 minutes into the movie. Phenomenal.

6 The Artifice Girl - Small budget, bottle sci-fi movie, tiny cast, tightly written. I am biased with this one, as I love those really small intimate, sci-fi movies set in 1-2 rooms with a small cast.

5 Leave the World Behind - Another one that I know was fairly polarizing, but I know my own biases to movies and games where the viewer/player has the same knowledge as the characters on screen. I went in completely blind to the movie, not knowing a thing, and loved it. Ending was the weakest part, but I also love Netflix making a movie about the pro's of owning physical media.

4 Godzilla Minus One - I like a lot of people were surprised by this one, not only was it a better Godzilla movie than the Western releases, it had a human side that for the first time for me, made me care and invest into those human characters.

3 The Holdovers - The second coming-of-age movie set in 1970/1 to make my list. I adored this movie, it felt like an instant classic, and while there was some obvious nostalgia bait, what they also remembered to do, was tell a good story, with great characters and great performances.

2 Oppenheimer - This was always going to rate pretty high for me as I enjoy that period of history, Space Race, Atomic Race, Cold War etc so getting to see an incredibly produced biopic, all star cast with top tier perfomances.

1 Killers of the Flower Moon - Honestly surprised me that it took top spot, since I first finalise what's on my list and then work out ordering. This one just kept creeping up, didn't love it as much when I walked out of the cinema but it was one that I just kept thinking about long after.

Godland
Anatomy of a Fall

Guy Ritchie's The Covenant

Who is the enemy here? Is this a satiric black mirror on our reality or just a good movie.
