Matrix, The (1999)

  • Popular
  • 1999, Lana Wachowski, Lilly Wachowski, USA
  • 5 Comments

A landmark ‘90s sci-fi masterpiece with that rare combo of style and substance—two decades later, it loses none of its sobering philosophical inquiry.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 5 out of 5.

Soul (2020)

  • Docter, Pete, Popular
  • 2020, Pete Docter, Pixar, USA
  • Leave a comment

It doesn’t always cohere with a creative concept that sometimes overreaches, but this is Pixar at its most existential, exploring the meaning of life at the crossroads of passion, purpose and living. 

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 3.5 out of 5.

Inside Out (2015)

One of the very, very best in the Pixar canon, and that’s saying something.

Up (2009)

  • Docter, Pete, Popular
  • 2009, Pete Docter, Pixar, USA
  • 6 Comments

Pixar matures considerably with this delightful offering, despite an unimposing villain and a climax that feels too rushed.

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 3.5 out of 5.

Monsters, Inc. (2001)

  • Docter, Pete, Popular
  • 2001, Pete Docter, Pixar, USA
  • 6 Comments

One of Pixar’s best efforts, and still one of their most conceptually imaginative pictures to date.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

  • Popular
  • 2020, Patty Jenkins, USA
  • Leave a comment

Not as inspiring or thrilling as the first movie, this largely serviceable sequel has some interesting ideas that take too long to unpack and could benefit from a tighter edit.

⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 3 out of 5.

Wonder Woman (2017)

  • Popular
  • 2017, Patty Jenkins, USA
  • 1 Comment

The film’s radical nature hides within its safe, formulaic underpinnings in what is DC’s finest superhero movie since Nolan’s ‘The Dark Knight’ trilogy.

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 3.5 out of 5.

Dark Knight Rises, The (2012)

  • Nolan, Christopher, Popular
  • 2012, Christopher Nolan, USA
  • 2 Comments

Despite being the ‘weakest’ installment of Nolan’s ‘Batman’ trilogy, you won’t see a more epic and satisfying finale than this.

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4 out of 5.

Dark Knight, The (2008)

  • Nolan, Christopher, Popular
  • 2008, Christopher Nolan, USA
  • 3 Comments

Still the most accomplished superhero movie of the 21st century – a thrilling, endlessly fascinating treatise on good versus evil, and everything in between.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4.5 out of 5.

Batman Begins (2005)

  • Nolan, Christopher, Popular
  • 2005, Christopher Nolan, USA
  • 3 Comments

Perhaps the deepest film, philosophically speaking, of the trilogy, as Nolan delivers a compelling entertainer that asks not who but what Batman is.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4.5 out of 5.
