Not sure I remember a Top 10 in 2015 thread, so. . .

I have seen 20 films released in theatres last year so far, a little lower than usual.  Looking over the BOM 2015 charts, I see 36 films which grossed over $500,000 which I'd see if they were showing down the block today.  The highest grossing film I have not heard of (or have no recollection of) is "The Perfect Guy," which ws released in September, and made a little over $57M in North America.

I may yet see "Anomalisa," "45 Years," "Carol" and "The Lady in the Van," among movies still in theatres here.

I found "Sicario," "Inside Out," "Spotlight," "Brooklyn," "Room," "Ex Machina," "The Big Short" and "It Follows" completely absorbing.  "Lambert & Stamp." too.  I enjoyed "Mad Max: Fury Road," and I respect its commitment to on-location shooting.  I respect the commitment "The Revenant" made to this principle, too, but I enjoyed it less.  For all of its interest in immersion, I thought its first 15 minutes were its best, and otherwise felt restless. My top 10, then, would include...

Sicario

Inside Out

Room

Brooklyn

Ex Machina

Spotlight
