Best Movies of 2021

-
In what was yet another crazy and uncertain year, 2021 was still able to provide us with some excellent movies across all mediums. There's been a few that I've possibly missed over the course of the year but in my opinion these are the ten best movies of 2021:

10. Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings

09. Ghostbusters: Afterlife

08. The Power of the Dog

07. No Time to Die

06. The Suicide Squad

05. Tick, tick...BOOM!

04. Spider-Man: No Way Home

03. A Quiet Place Part II

02. Zack Snyder's Justice League

01. Dune

The Best Movie of 2021

Dune was so good that I needed more of it's world and I got the book for Christmas. The movie stuck with me for weeks with it's excellent cast, stunning visuals and swelling score. Denis Villeneuve has quickly became one of the best directors currently working and I absolutely can't wait for the sequel in 2023.

      Does 'Promising Young Woman' count as a 2021 film?

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse

UK Release Date: 12 December 2018  Certification: PG  Director: Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey, Rodney Rothman  Cast: Nicolas Cage, Kimiko Glenn, Jake Johnson, Zoe Kravitz, Shameik Moore, John Mulaney, Chris Pine, Liev Schreiber, Hailee Steinfeld  Rating:   94 % I'm also a huge fan of Spider-Man on the PS4. Review: One of the greatest strengths of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse is the animation. The style means the movie is the closest thing to a comic book. All the Spider people have different animation styles - Spider-Ham looks like something from Looney Tunes, Peni Parker looks like Anime, Spider-Noir is black and white and Miles looks like he was lifted straight out of a Marvel comic. The only thing I didn't like about the animation was the way  Kingpin was portrayed - he was very wide. I don't mind the animators sticking to his comic book appearance, but really, he didn't have to be that huge! There have been a ...

UK Release Date: 30 March 2018 Certification: PG Director: Wes Anderson Cast: Bob Balaban, Bryan Cranston, Greta Gerwig, Jeff Goldblum, Scarlett Johansson, Harvey Keitel, Bill Murray, Edward Norton, Koyu Rankin, Liev Schreiber, Tilda Swinton Rating: 65% Toby Dogge enjoyed Isle of Dogs too. Review: For an animated movie Isle of Dogs boasts an incredible cast, with acting legends like Jeff Goldblum and Bill Murray, to up and coming stars like Koyu Rankin and Greta Gerwig.  In Isle of Dogs , Wes Anderson relies upon a stop-motion animation technique that he first used in Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009) to create a story that is both sombre and heart-warming at the same time. The movie is about a Japanese boy called Atari, who’s parents pass away in an accident. He goes to live with his uncle who is the mayor of the fictional city, Megasaki. The mayor banishes all dogs to Trash Island and the remainder of the movie tells of Atari's daring rescue mission to save his dog,...
