1994 - Burnt by the Sun ( Russian film about Stalin's purge of an army General post WW2 )
1995 - Casino ( A gangster film. I like it much better than Goodfellas)
1996 - Bastard out of Carolina ( About child abuse. Poor little Jena Malone ! )
1997 - Lolita ( Jeremy Irons is superb as Humbert Humbert )
1998 - Meet Joe Black ( Anthony Hopkins shines and the film though flawed is glorious )
1999 - Election ( Little Miss Type A Reese Witherspoon kills it in this film )
2000 - The Dish ( Gently amusing but affecting film about the moon landing )
2001 - Gosford Park ( A great film about dirty doings in an upstairs downstairs situation )
2002 - The Bourne Identity ( About as perfect as an action spy thriller gets )
2003 - Intolerable Cruelty ( Funny film about a couple of dirty rotten scoundrels )
2004 - Junebug ( Amy Adams is great as the girl who was left behind )
2005 - Winter Passing ( Zooey Deschanel as a girl with parental neglect issues )
2006 - The Da Vinci Code ( A bit silly but beautiful and a nice ' What if ?' film )
2007 - Persuasion ( A superb TV movie based on the Jane Austen novel )
2008 - In Bruges ( Black comedy about gangsters making a mess of things )
2009 - Orphan ( Isabelle Fuhrman knocks it out of the park )
2010 - Never Let Me Go ( Carey Mulligan is breathtaking in this joyless melancholic film )
2011 - Drive ( In a way there's not much to it but for some reason it is memorable )
2012 -
2013 -
2014 - Maleficent ( I like this film. Lana Del Rey's Once Upon A Dream is to blame I think )
2015 - Star Wars The Force Awakens ( Daisy Ridley is a star and it's a good film )
2016 - The Blackcoat's Daughter ( Kiernan Shipka plays creepy very well )
2017 -
2018 -
2019 -
2020 - Gretel & Hansel ( A visually beautiful film with a very dark subtext )


I watch films mostly on Blu-ray and DVD so the later the year the fewer films I have seen.

“I watch films mostly on Blu-ray and DVD so the later the year the fewer films I have seen. “

I know what you mean here. I started to make a list but I had too many blank years 2000 plus.

reply

Yes it's becoming more pronounced as some films and shows have their Blu-ray DVD release put off for longer periods of time or perhaps won't be released that way at all.

reply

I loved Casino too. People who say it's the same movie as Goodfellas make me want to punch a wall. The story of the fall of the mob in Vegas is different than the one we saw in Goodfellas.

reply

Joe Pesci was brilliant in Casino.
