The Best Movie you watched in 2016

Forget the critics and their art house picks for Best Movie of the Year. Which movie YOU pick as the best one you watched in 2016?

Mine was a no-brainer for me:

 

These Days, REED Doesn't Go to the Theatre More than 1-2 Times a Year, if That...Best Movie he Saw in 2016 is an EASY Choice...









REED:hammert:

 

I really like this movie called Victoria, I think it's from 2015 but I saw it a couple of weeks ago. It's about a Spanish girl partying in Berlin and hooking up with a German guy and his buddies, and then things take a sinister turn when one of them has to return a favour for a local gangster. It's notable for having been filmed in a single, continuous shot.

Might like it: Noblefart, Anthony, lb4lb, SliceNdice

Won't like it: panchyprsss

 

As funny as it sounds, I only sat down and watched one movie this year. It was at work and it was actually the worst movie I have ever seen in my life. Ben Stiller and Drew Barrymore were in it. It was supposed to be a comedy but it was about as funny as terminal cancer. It think it was called "Duplex."

I did see part of "Straight Outta Compton" and it was really good but I need to see the whole thing. I have always liked NWA and the solo work of Eazy, Ice Cube, Dre and MC Ren.

 

Batman vs Superman. Dawn of Justice.

 

Embrace of the serpent or i, daniel blake. Granted they were the only two i actually went to see

 

Sounds good

 

Well you said it

 

Yeah I think for me it was Captain America Civil War and if that's true it's really sad. Although admittedly I didn't see nearly as many films this year as I normally do.

 

I have a bad memory for year end lists: I wanna say "Calvary", though that probably came out a year earlier.

I also enjoyed "DeadPool", though I've gotta admit I must not have seen too many good movies if that heads the list.

 

I watched the best reviewed film of the year, Love & Friendship based on the Jane Austen novel 'Lady Susan' and after 40 minutes I turned it off. When a movie viewing feels like a freaking CHORE, you know that this art house bore is not for you. :nono:

My second best viewing of the year was The Jungle Book ​the most fun I had watching a family movie in years!

 

I, Daniel Blake.

MTF

 

Zootopia, i guess :dunno:

 

¨Where are you taking me?!¨
(exclaimed out loud to a Great White Shark)


I am, of course, talking about the unintentionally hilarious ´The Shallows´...

 

Rogue One


TFK

I, Daniel Blake - 'A middle aged carpenter who requires state welfare after injuring himself, is joined by a single mother in a similar scenario'


Wow.
Winning.

I thought it was good.

 

That's not in doubt.
The thing with Ken Loach movies (for me at least) is....they're so gritty and urban and indicative of modern working-class life that they become hard to watch.

 

Calvary came out at the start of 2014 ::

 

I watched Hell or High Water over the weekend. Very solid movie. Not a classic, but a good movie. One of the better movies of the very mediocre 2016.

 

Well shit, I SAW it in 2016.............I think......could have been 2015....maaaaaybe 2014.

I can tell you one thing. It was no "Point Break". :nono:
