I saw a lot of movies this year, and I really liked a lot of them. Maybe I'm going soft in my old age. In any event, here's a list of my faves in a vague sort of order.
Birdman Innovative vision
Snowpiercer Visceral gut punch
Boyhood Indie brilliance
Interstellar Epic grandeur
Alan Partridge Classic comedy
Jodorowsky’s Dune Mad passion
Selma Longest standing ovation I’ve seen in a theater
Big Eyes A subtler, more mature Burton
Gone Girl Hollywood at its most satisfying
Mr. Turner I love Mike Leigh
Force Majeure Swedish ski trip from hell
Obvious Child Fun indie with a bit of bite
Mood Indigo Gondry creates a wondrous and frightening world
Regarding Susan Sontag Words matter
The Punk Singer Punk goodness
Chef Sweet Indiewood bordering on cloying
Citizen Four Required viewing
We Are The Best Punk cuteness
Grand Budapest Wes Andersony
The Imitation Game A bloodless war movie for braniacs
Los Angeles Plays Itself Not as great as the hype promised, but well worth it
Life Itself Not as great as the hype promised, but well worth it
