Your top 3 films of 2017

[metalguru]

Florida Project
Blade of the Immortal
Daphne

Thought it was a bit of a poor year for films. Probably off to see the Disaster Artist today.

 

[Maltin]

Fifty Shades Darker
All Eyez on Me
The Dark Tower

 

[Virtual Blue]

Fifty Shades Darker is one of the most subversive films ever made. It's the Taxi Driver of this generation - or better.

All Eyez on Me, so good, I can't wait for the sequel.

The Dark Tower is on par as The Green Mile.

2017 - great year for films.

Not sure of the cinema release as I live in the sticks, but it only came out on dvd/blu-ray officially in November.

[D'wards]

Three films I watched all made a break for my top 3; The Florida Project, Lady Bird and Three Billboards outside Ebbing Missouri.

All fantastic. All of them telling very female stories. I'm generally not a fan of forced diversity or the Bechdel test - a good film is a good film. Dunkirk is a prime example where Bechdel is totally meaningless.

But these films had no agenda with regards to identity politics- they were just great with excellent performances.
Greta Gerwig especially has a bright future- she has risen out of the mumblecore genre to make great human drama comedies, reminiscent of 70s Woody Allen
