Hmm :hmmm: ...not perfect but, overall, pretty solid list.

Critics' Poll: ‘Mad Max: Fury Road' Named Best Movie of the 2010s

Roons scored three movies in Top 20 - not bad at all. A Ghost Story certainly needs to be ranked higher but it will need some time for that movie to be fully appreciated.

Same with me when it comes to Boyhood but, personally I'd put The Master even higher on the list :wink2:

Black Swan and The Favourite didn't even make it. What ?

Need to watch Margaret. Wanted to see it for a long time but for some reason I always postpone this.

Where is PATERSON?!!!

Agree about Black Swan.I love Margaret. Some critics mention Stories We Tell, Shame, Foxtrot on their personal lists<3

These kinds of lists show that Rooney does well to be picky

Shame is better than 12 Years. I’m kinda disappointed with Widows. :(

Paterson, Shame yes ! Jackie also - in my opinion the best biopic of the decade, super stylish and with gorgeous music (scene where Natalie practise speech in Spanish in front of mirror right before assassination is a thing of beauty). Poor Natalie, she isn't represented fairly on this list.

Yep, Widows was kinda disappointing (TV adaptation was better) but to be fair people maybe had too much big expectations for it. In the end it was only Ok for me, certainly the weakest effort from McQueen. I'd love him and Fassbender making collaborations again.

I saw A Separation from your list of the decade. It’s really great. Really grasp idiosyncrasy of a society. So many topics in a seemingly simple story. I had seen only The Salesman of him that I liked too
