The Accountant
Shot Caller
Papillion
Killing Them Softly
American Sniper
Sicario
Joker
Moonlight
Equaliser
Equaliser 2
Warrior
The Drop

Not all would be in my top 10 but I haven't got time atm to go through. Ah just remembered

Warrior
The Drop

I'd put them in instead of Joker and Equaliser 2. So I'll cheat and add Focus, The Gambler and Mississipi Grind round it off to top 15.
 
Whiplash?

you lost me on that one. Start again. Haha joking that movie is gold. I'd have to put that in there too. Top 10 is way too hard for any movie thing you really need like a top 20-30 and an all time list has to be top 50.

Also. I'll tell you a joke. A paranoid schizophrenic walks into a bar:tearsofjoy:




great movie. Once again, starring who? The great Tom Hardy. * he's A-Grade.
 
The American


I like that movie. Clooney is a brilliant hit man. Love that it's set in Italy too *. On that note, All the Money in the world I thought was a *en ripper.
 
Point Break 2015 is pretty cool but nothing compared to the 1991 one.

Body was on another level in that one. Patrick Swayze has portrayed some absolute rippers in Point Break, Ghost, Road House, Dirty Dancing among others. The more time passes the more I see what a gem '' Body '' was in Point Break.

Way ahead of his time. Decades.

Yeah I feel this, my shortlist of 32 movies was way more satisfying (chronological):

I like seeing peoples top 10s though. Over the sample size of a decade it reveals a lot about personal taste, as opposed to the end of year lists which tend to have more overlap.

Yep. Agreed.


Moneyball now that is a good movie.
 
Drive deserves a mention from me. I forgot about that until now but someone else mentioned it.



Gosling get an Oscar in that? He deserved one.
