Director: Damien Chazelle

Written by: Damien Chazelle

 

It won 3 Oscars last year and received an outstanding reception from both critics and audiences, Whiplash is at #55.

 

RT Consensus: "Intense, inspiring and well-acted, Whiplash is a brilliant sophomore effort from director Damien Chazelle and a riveting vehicle for stars J.K. Simmons and Miles Teller."

Traffic.jpg

 

Director: Steven Soderbergh

Written by: Stephen Gaghan

 

Erin Brockovich might not have made it to the list, but Soderbergh still manages to get into our list with his 2000 crime film Traffic.

 

RT Consensus: "Soderbergh successfully pulls off the highly ambitious Traffic, a movie with three different stories and a very large cast. The issues of ethics are gray rather than black-and-white, with no clear-cut good guys. Terrific acting all around."

you should be happy that it even appeared on the list, I mean, people didn't even nominate it to the prestigious 3rd Annual BOFFY.

That is because the rules weren't properly defined and people sent in ballots in alphabetical order. :P

Surprised. 2000 film. Grossed 124+ million domestic, nominated for 5 Oscars and won 4 (Director, Supporting Actor, Editing Adapted Screenplay). Ensemble of several well-known actors.

Director: Duncan Jones

Written by: Nathan Parker

 

Much like Locke previously, Moon relies on its central performance, and the payoff is a #53 spot on the list.

 

RT Consensus: "Boosted by Sam Rockwell's intense performance, Moon is a compelling work of science-fiction, and a promising debut from director Duncan Jones."

 it's because a lot of people didn't get a chance to see it most likely.

WHIPLASH made the list? :mellow:

One of the trends I noticed while compiling the list was that films that are closer in people's memory ended up higher on their lists. 

 

Anyway, Whiplash is a fab film, I have no complaints :)

Edge+of+Tomorrow+All+You+Need+is+Kill+Po

 

Director: Doug Liman

Written by: Jez Butterworth, John-Henry Butterworth, Christopher McQuarrie

 

The Biggest Movie Star In The World makes his third appearance on the list, in the time-loop sci-fi Edge of Tomorrow.

 

RT Consensus: "Gripping, well acted, funny and clever, Edge of Tomorrow offers entertaining proof that Tom Cruise is still more than capable of shouldering the weight of a blockbuster action thriller."
