Best Movies of 2019 Thread

[Snapolit1]

New movies only. . . . what's the best new movies you saw this year.

I'd say

Joker
Parasite
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
The Irishman

... probably in that order.

Midway had very good battle scenes, though the dialogue was a bit clichéd.

I went to two movies this year, the first time I had been in a theater in years. Downton Abbey and Ford vs Ferrari. Both were great. I plan to go back again in 4-5 years.

I really liked the anti-hate satire Jojo Rabbit! Peanut Butter Falcon was fun, as were Booksmart and Knives Out. Amazing Grace and the Linda Ronstadt movie were excellent, from the musical documentary category.

Linda Ronstadt doc was awesome! Def in my top 10. What a life. If you love pop music from the 70s find it.

I'm glad to hear that it's so good. I've been a Ronstadt fan for a long, long time.

The documentary doesn't air here until new year's day...so, I guess I'll miss some football...

Hi Steve

A big DITTO ! to what you said. My wife and I saw this 2-hour special last nite. We remember Linda Ronstadt starting with the late 1960's. An unbelievable multi-talented artist.
A documentary well done, and certainly worth watching.

Honeyland - a beautiful documentary
Parasite - heard the raves, saw it, still jumped up on me

The Irishman - haven't seen it (nor Roma from 2018) since I refuse to be extorted by Netflix. Suppose I'm just a fossil.
