What is the newest film that would make your top 10?

The Millennium trilogy.

 

Deadpool...
John Wick...

 

good one

 

Most recent? Probably CHILDREN OF MEN or BABEL.

The seamless action sequences in CHILDREN OF MEN were a real jolt the first time I saw it. How they managed to execute such lengthy, complicated choreography is beyond me.

 

Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)

 

Not sure about top ten, but here are several of my favourite post 2000 movies:

O Brother, Where Art Thou?
City of God
True Grit
Pan's Labyrinth
The Assassination of Jesse James
Let the Right One In
Lost in Translation
Confessions of a Dangerous Mind
Zodiac
Midnight in Paris
The Fantastic Mr Fox
Little Miss Sunshine
There Will Be Blood
And Your Mother Too
36 Quai des Orfèvres
Children of Men
Tell No-One
Letters from Iwo Jima
Inglorious Basterds
Open Range
13 Days
Mesrine
Spotlight
Hell or High Water
Michael Clayton
Mystic River
The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou
Submarine
The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada

 

The most recent films that might end up in my top ten (which is around fifteen films now) are:

"Shotgun Stories" (2007)
"No Country for Old Men" (2007)
"Tree of Life" (2011)

 

Hoop Dreams (1994) is hanging around my top 10. The most recent one that's no-doubt, gone-off-the-bat is The Sting (1973).

There have been plenty of objectively great films the past 20+ years but they don't seem to stay with me the way movies used to.

 

That’s close to how it is for me as well.

These films would be contenders, not exactly “new”:

Apollo 13 (1995)
Forrest Gump (1994)
Fargo (1996)
The Others (2001)
Vanilla Sky (2001)
No Country for Old Men (2008)
Shutter Island (2010)
Toy Story 3 (2010)

 

Maybe Baraka from 1992.

 

The Station Agent
Zodiac
Wonder Boys
The Skeleton Twins
Almost Famous

 

Recent.
Past few months ?

 

Bomb City (2017)
Ghost In the Shell (2017)
Ready Player One (2018)

 

Both are great films but Children of Men, technically, remains an astonishing achievement to me.
For me:
I thought "Age of Ultron" managed to be both a terrific bit of entertainment AND have some darker themes that were examined as well. I also like that they (as in the comic) didn't truly made Thanos a bad guy who does what he does just because he's evil. In HIS movie he's the good guy trying to save the universe from all of these pesky "heroes". A well developed and directed film. Definitely Captain America Winter Soldier would be on that list--it manages to capture the paranoid vibe of films like "Three Days of the Condor" and other 70's political thrillers while dealing with some interesting themes.

 

If I could ever choose 10 films ( doubtful) Crash would not be in it I suppose, but I love it and consider it essential. Good call.

 

Silver Lining Playbook...
Deadpool 1 &2
John Wick 1 & 2

 

any year...

 

crazy as it seems that one choked me up.

 

Yes, spectacular. If this was a question of the top 10 in different genres, this would be in the War genre. It was a compliment to James Jones's novel even with the changes. nolte was really good.

 

Mad Max Fury Road

 

Under the Skin (2013)

 

good slow burner!

 

Rogue One

Black Panther

 

I think, Coco.
