The Best Films & Quotes of 2025
I felt like cinema returned to kind of magic in 2025. The pandemic slowed down the film industry a little, I felt like a lot of the films that came out over the last few years weren't all that good or they were more Marvel rubbish. I suppose I don't like crowd pleasing movies, films that companies produce because they know they have a built in audience and will entertain. I don't fall into either of those categories and worse I find 95% of their films boring. When I watch film I am looking for it to seduce my eyes and makes me think. I am looking for the magic.
These are the films I loved in '25 and they are totally quotable.
