The 2. 0 Best Films Of 2. From the ridiculous to the sublime, as part of our ongoing year end coverage, we recently looked at the worst films of the year, but we wouldnt want to rest on a negative note for too long, so there was only one way to go from there to The Playlists Official 2. Best Motion Pictures of 2. Traditionally, weve run separate lists by separate staffers, but this year, we also wanted to try something a little different. So for the first time ever, editors, staffers, contributors and contributing writers were polled on their top 1. The Playlists top twenty. Its always worth noting that with Playlisters based everywhere from L. A. to Berlin, not everyone sees everything at the same time, and as we closed polling this past weekend, its possible that wed have seen certain movies yet to hit wide release climb higher given the passion from the few who saw films like Mommy, Selma and A Most Violent Year, those in particular could have ended up further up the list. But nevertheless, its been a fascinating process to watch the poll take shape especially with the runaway number one film, which took almost twice as many points as its closest competitor, and we think weve ended up with a list that represents the site as a whole. Theres still plenty more year end coverage to come, and there have been quite a few Best of the Year features already which you can check out here. But for now, take a look at the top 2. The RoverIf one takes The Rover on its own methodical, minimalist terms an existentialist fable that burrows deep into the moralism of its corrupted, barren landscape its hard to deny that writerdirector David Michods sophomore effort wholly accomplishes what it sets out to do. Stripping away all narrative complexity to the point of abstraction, the character study really breathes, but in such a completely different way to Michods triumphant last feature Animal Kingdom, that after just two features and a few shorts, Michod has us convinced hes the real deal. Featuring a stunningly grizzled, grimy lead performance by Guy Pearce, easily one of our favorite working actors, and an impressive turn from Robert Pattinson who is growing as a performer with every film, its a movie that pulsates beneath the surface and in the long silences between dialogue and outbursts of violence. And its starkly beautiful to look at and to listen to, eschewing revelations and plot twists to deliver its deceptively simple story through mood, tone and atmosphere. Read our review. SelmaIts amazing what filmmaker Ava Du Vernay has accomplished over such a short filmography youd never guess that Selma is only her third feature length drama. The story of Martin Luther King Jr. Selma to Montgomery in Alabama a pilgrimage that led to the landmark passage of the 1. Voting Rights Act Selma is deeply moving. And yes, its an important film, but one of such intelligence, craft, dignity and empathy, that any cynicism you may have about its motivations will quickly disappear. Alive and vital, Selma eschews traditional stuffy biopic notes, with David Oyelowos elegant performance proving effortlessly genuine. And the picture provides a warm, lived in look into MLKs life that is full of human dimension, while also being vividly shot by Bradford Young the years MVP director of photography for Selma and A Most Violent Year, who imbues every frame with a textured authenticity and intimacy. Selma may check off all the Oscar boxes its emotionally stirring, inspirational, crowd pleasing, powerful and socially relevant but if Best Picture has to hit these criteria, let Selma take it for all the right and honest reasons.

Either way, this soulful, humanist triumph might be more worthwhile than anything you pay to see in theaters this year. Read our review. MommyIn any other hands, Mommy wouldnt work. The sci fi ish prologue is unnecessary, the movie runs too long, and the opening twenty minutes may well be a deal breaker for some. But theyd be giving up on one of the most excitingly fresh, unapologetic directorial voices of the moment in Xavier Dolan and missing out on what ultimately becomes one of the most beautiful, goddamn heart bursting movies of the year. Breakout Antoine Olivier Pilon is the wild, unpredictable, ADD heart of the movie, in which a teenager, fresh out of juvie, returns home to live with his mother Diane Anne Dorval. But hes too much to handle, and so an unlikely alliance is formed with Kyra Suzanne Clement the neighbor who gives Steve care and guidance, while Diane earns their keep. This is almost beyond soap opera, an all levels to ten tribute to the heart breaking ferocity of the mother son bond marked by three stunning performances. Dolans use of music has never been better, with two sequences in particular providing swooningly gorgeous, unexpected audiovisual pairings, and lest you think the Academy ratio is a gimmick from the young filmmaker, its a choice that ramps up the intensity in a film where the emotions threaten to leap off the screen and eat you whole. Mommy, much like Steve, is wild, reckless and flawed, but like Diane, thats why we love it to death. Read our review. IdaGiven that it went rather overlooked on the festival circuit at the end of 2. Ida grow over 2. Foreign Language Oscar. Pawel Pawlikowskis return to his native Poland, its a small, personal and beautifully formed little gem, focusing on novice nun Anna Agata Trzebuchowska, whos astonishing for a first time actor, who discovers that shes actually Jewish, and sets out with her aunt the equally astonishing Agata Kulesza to look for her parents grave. It sounds bleak, and with its stark Bressonian black and white Academy ratio framing, seems like it could look that way too, but its a film of great warmth and power. For such a brief film just 8. Its a staggering achievement, and were delighted to see so many take it to their hearts. Read our review. The Grand Budapest HotelWe hope the Academy doesnt forget this delightful Wes Anderson film come Oscar time, because for our money, its easily one of his best films to date, and one of 2. With a spring release that was rewarded with deserved critical and financial success, it felt for the better part of 2. Grand Budapest. And for good reason its funny as hell, with an against type turn by Ralph Fiennes as a dandy, possibly bisexual and ultimately heroic hotel manager thats award worthy without being obvious. The gorgeous music by Alexandre Desplat is a large part of the films success, with the score like the film constantly on the move, always one step ahead of the audience, jumping from genre to genre screwball sex comedyprison breakquasi World War IIstories within stories. Art directed with trademark Anderson perfection and nostalgia, its simply one of the most flat out entertaining films of this year, even with an ending thats so beautifully sad. Well, weve gotten reviews of the first 2 parts, so to complete the trilogy, heres my review of Buzzsaw Butchers 2 Part 3. After the recap of what preceded part 3. Its hard to look at the movieor any of Cassinis hauntingly beautiful imagesand not think of something appropriately morose for its Grand Finale. October 2, 2014 Phoenix, AZ Who am I From time to time, most ponder that question. Am I a writerRead our review. NymphomaniacEntertainment Weekly can suck it. By now we all know theyve chosen Lars Von Triers symphonic sex saga Nymphomaniac as the very worst film of the year, which hurts our brain. You may have to be down with Von Triers peculiar interests in order to truly savor both volumes of Nymphomaniac, but that they are boisterously alive and creatively ingenious pieces of work is undeniable.
