ur list?
Also, a decade is 10 years...and I'm surprised u didn't add epic movies like Inception


Also, I'm surprised you didn't add Oldboy...or haven't you watched it? The original one... Oldboy 2003


To me, Oldboy 2003, Inception 2010 and The Handmaiden 2016 should definitely be among and not just honourable mentions
Bourne ultimatum as honourable mention
I love the handmaiden movie, but it will be in my top 30, and I haven't watched the oldboy movie soooo... Maybe I can change my mind

Little Women (2019).. This was a very brilliant movie i must..I very solid adaption of Louisa May Alcott Classic....Greta Gerwig did excellently well writing this for screen and directing as well..and to think she's the partner to Noah Baumbach (who made one of the best movie of last year) tells me theatrical greatness runs in that household..

And Saoirse Ronan is phenomenal...so young an actress...so artistically gifted.

A solid 8/10 and my Fav scene below grin
She was amazing, one of the best actresses of her time

Terminator: Dark Fate 6/10

Killing off a major character of the franchise just to have Linda Hamilton's Sarah Connor in the movie was a dumb move. They basically rendered the value of Terminator 2 useless.
And the T-800's character change is just dumb. How was that supposed to make sense at all?
The strong point of the movie was the fast-paced action. Just that.

What Happened To Monday? 8/10

This movie's been playing hide-and-seek with me for a while, so I was really happy that it absolutely delivered on the goods. Noomi Rapace is a damn, good actress in my book. Her portrayal of the Settman siblings took me on an emotional rollercoaster.

The villain wasn't really a villain to me. I mean, there wasn't a lot of difference between her and MCU's Thanos. Just realists trying to enforce tough, ruthless methods to deal with an impending apocalypse.

Willem Dafoe is one of those actors that just pops into a movie to troll everyone else with how good he is. Not up to 20 mins of screentime and mans still managed to impress.
Really glad I finally got to watch this.

Unlocked 7.5/10

A solid action flick with a nice complex plot, even if the twist was rather cliché.
Noomi Rapace being good as usual, and this is the first movie I'm seeing Orlando Bloom not in a medieval costume.
Action scenes were pseudo-realistic and gritty. Cinematography was good, no excessive use of shaky cam. And the dialogue was great.
I especially loved this scene

Ford v Ferrari 9.5/10

One of the things I'm really glad about is that I didn't know a lot about the historical events or the characters going into this movie. This way, I was able to fully experience every emotion the movie tried to invoke; the anger, the frustration, the tension, the fear.

I know Christian Bale is one of the best actors alive, today, but sometimes I forget just how bloody good Matt Damon is too. Both of them elevated this movie to the level of classic.

The crew did a stellar job, as well. With the cinematography, setting, editing, detail to history. Also the casting and dramatization for screen was done tastefully.

Funny enough, this movie wasn't really on my last year's list and I just chanced upon it. Thank God for that.

P.S: Seeing the Coca Cola spot and remembering just how old the company and the product is just made me wonder whether Nigeria has any such company with a product that has been a Nationwide staple for decades, talk less of globally. We really have a long, long way to go.

Also, if you people that watched it, told me Jon Bernthal was in this movie, I would have fvckin downloaded it ages ago.

Lol. Samuel Jackson's most notable role around 2010-2019 is starring as Nick Fury. Quote me if I'm wrong though. I haven't seen a lot of his movies from the period of 2010 till date. His best movie to me was Pulp Fiction (1994).. Aah, Lemme not even get started on that one grin.
Modified: Yes, I remember some good movies around 2010-2019. But don't know if it's among the best.

The Banker
Hitman Bodyguard
Unthinkable

The Hateful eight
Kong Skull Island
Shaft

He beat at least 80% of those overrated actors you put on the list hands down, no contest!

You are obviously new to movies.

I have lost count of movies where the plot and everything was criticized but the actors' performance were critically acclaimed.



Is it his job to write the script?
I am talking about his performances in the aforementioned movies.
I am less concerned about box office figures.
