My favorite movies of the 2010s

This list was much harder to make than my favorite movies of 2019. I was able to get it down to 15 and that’s how many Chris Coyier did, so I figured that’s great.

It was especially difficult because movies released earlier in the decade have the advantage of nostalgia and repeat viewings. I might revisit this in 5 years to see how my opinions change.

old man Wolverine and young Laura 15. Logan

Daniel Kaluuya sits with eyes wide and tears streaming down his face 14. Get Out

Owen Wilson walks in front of a painted Paris streetscape 13. Midnight in Paris (I know Woody Allen is horrible and I debated putting this here. But this movie made my heart ache like not many before or since.)

Sam and Suzy 12. Moonrise Kingdom

the cast of Baby Driver in front of a car speeding down the Atlanta highway 11. Baby Driver

a young boy surrounded by supporting characters including Adolf Hitler 10. JoJo Rabbit
