Worst 10
10.Chips
Crass and unfunny.

Cringeworthy dialogue and performances.
7. The Snowman
The most disappointing of the year.
6. Suburbicon
George Clooney missed the mark.
5. Daddy’s Home 2
Mel Gibson.

Too much too quickly, DC didn’t spend enough time in the setup of their collaborative film.
3. Downsizing
Matt Damon’s second film on this list, in which he fails again to perform.
2. The Only Living Boy in New York
It felt like the longest film ever.
1.Fifty Shades Darker
You know why.
Top 10
10.The Disaster Artist
The James Franco dramedy was a touching surprise and last minute addition.
9. Thor: Ragnarok
Director Taiki Watiti masterfully took Thor in a brand new exciting direction - the only Superhero film to make this year’s list!
8.The Beguiled
Sophia Coppola directed an incredible film starring Elle Fanning, Nicole Kidman and Colin Farrell.
7.20th Century Women
Though released last year in the US, the April release in Australia makes this excellent Annette Benning film one of this year’s best.
6. Miss Sloane
Jessica Chastain and Mark Strong shone in this legal frama.
5. Get Out
Jordan Peele created a horror that mirrored society and it scared us all for the right reasons.
4.Personal Shopper
An exceptional performance from Kristen Stewart.
3.Lady Bird
Saorise Ronan is exceptional and Greta Gerwig’s script/direction is perfect.
2.Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
Wonderful characters and an exceptional plot make this stand out from the rest.
1. mother!
Devise among audience and critics, yet this biblical criticism hit all the right marks with incredible performances and a visually incredible aesthetic.
