Best English movies in 2018

List of some of the best english movies I have seen this year! (No particular ordering)

1. Upgrade :

One of the best movies I have seen this year. The action sequences are so exhilarating that I wish there was a sequel already. This is the only sci-fi movie worth mentioning this year (sorry Annihilation).

2. Ralph wrecks the internet :

Wreck it Ralph is one of my all time favourite animations. The sheer amount of imagination this franchise packs is amazing and the new installment just pushes the limit further. I am amazed at how much detail went into making the internet setup like the data packages sent across, user personas maintained, search engines, tweets, etc. But what really stood out for me is that the film packs a great message of handling friendships when your life is changing. I personally lost several friends because I couldn’t handle their life changes. Well, its never too late I guess.

3. Game night

This is a complete fun filled entertainer. It delivers exactly what you would expect from this genre. The real shiners are of course the lead cast Rachel McAdams and Jason Bateman. Who knew they could scorch the screen with their funny side.

4. Searching :

Another good thriller I have scene this year. The concept is refreshing and the execution is flawless. The fact that they switch from Windows to MAC in the 2000′s is a testament to the goodness of the execution. There is not so much mystery in the whole story but the movie as a whole is just worth the time.

5. Crazy rich asians :

Henry Golding! Eeeeee! That boy is just HAWT. It has great story too but Henry Golding! As for the movie, pure rom-cam just set in a different culture. But as long as that boy is on screen, I will watch anything, so.

6. A quiet place :

Another good thriller with great execution. Personally, what I loved most about the movie is the lifestyle itself. I mean, listening to radio all day eating raw food and laying still and not making any noise just seems like an amazing daily routine to me. I’m just saying, I could live comfortably in these settings you know.

7. Bad times at el Royale :

This movie trailer looked like it is gonna be a treat for Chris Hemsworth fans! So, I went into the movie expecting to see the shirtless almighty. As I was waiting for him to appear, I realized how crazy awesome this movie is. It was just riveting from the beginning and was unsettling by the end. The movie really stands out for its ambiguity and symbolism. All in all, great story telling and amazing cast. Do not miss it at any cost.

8. Mission Impossible: Fallout :

Tom cruise and Henry Cavill in one movie! I would just watch it even if its worse than a super bowl commercial. And this movie has some amazing action sequences. It isn’t the best spy movie ever but it is good enough to make this list.

9. Hereditary :

I wish I hadn’t seen this movie because it has so many disturbing sequences. Oof. It is Donnie Darko meets The Boy meets Insidious.In any case, it is a terrifying movie and you should not miss it because is a life experience.

10. Johnny English strikes again :

Funny! Really funny! Mr. Bean did it again. The scene with the VR headset where Johnny interacts with real world thinking it’s a game is just phenomenal and will make you giggle uncontrollably whenever you remember it. Or is it just me?

11. The spy who dumped me :

Cute Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon are cute. This movie packs so much punch in terms of feminism and oppression and it is all cleverly disguised under this sarcastic tone of situational comedy that it is amazing. It reminds me of the Melissa McCarthy 2015 film Spy and if you liked that movie, you will love this.

12. Eighth grade :

This is a really good movie on account that it is very realistic and makes you really uncomfortable by reminding you of your own awkward teenage years. You see the protagonist win these small and trivial milestones and yet you are so proud of her. It’s just really good. The fact that it is scripted only makes it all the more precious. I just couldn’t believe that awkward teenager was in someone’s head and it got translated from script onto screen.

13. Love, Simon :

Ooh, this is such a nice movie and a great book. More than the love track, I love all other tracks like the friendships and the parent-child relationship. I think they are the core of this character who then stands on these strong relationships and goes on grab another good relationship.

14. Set it up :

A netflix original with some great content. Another rom-com of course but the premise and the actors just make it stand out. Definitely worth a watch if you like Glen Powell because he is just so underrated.

15. Tully :

Another one of Charlize Theron’s acting master pieces. As a mother of three, Tully is the heartbreaking story of a mother who struggles to keep her sanity when she can’t find time for herself with everything happening in her life.

16. Dumplin’ :

I put this movie on the list because it helped me discover this whole new genre of Dolly Parton and cross-dressing. It is a cultural experience of sorts and you should have it.

17. Sierra Burgess is a loser :

The only reason this movie is on this list is because of Noah Centineo. That boy is yum and can be consumed only through these Netflix teen flicks. None the less, enjoy him.

18. Isle of dogs :

Haven’t seen the whole movie yet. But heard it’s really good and then there is Wes Anderson too. So watch it and let me know how you feel about it.

19. Avengers Infinity war :

It has become customary to watch these installments in summer and wait for the next one to come out year after year. But if you have invested in 18 movies before, what else are you gonna do? I blame RDJ for this burden.

20. Black Panther :

Hooray! I am at the end of my list. And I don’t mean to belittle Black Panther in any way. It was just as great as any other super hero movie released this year. I sure wish to see many more of the Wakandan supremo in the future.

Some more honorary mentions: Deadpool 2, A simple favor, Spiderman into the spiderverse, Destination wedding, etc.
