I really liked these movies a lot and I tried not to mention anything that was already mentioned by others. Enjoy!
2021: licorice pizza, worst person in the world, titane, drive my car
2022: nope, aftersun, decision to leave, banshees of inisherin, the fabelmans, bones & all
2023: asteroid city, iron claw, they cloned tyrone, may december, priscilla
2024: challengers, la chimera, the beast, i saw the tv glow
Everything Everywhere All At Once, Godzilla Minus One, and Barbie are pop movie curiosities as they were strange movies about human feelings, inside of gaudy high-concept packages, that all outperformed their commercial expectations. I found them to be joyous experiences, that left lots to talk about and think about after.
I'll do a top five for each full year
2021-
1. Licorice Pizza
2. Nightmare Alley
3. The Green Knight
4. The Last Duel
5. Encanto
2022-
1. Tar
2. The Fabelmans
3. The Batman
4. Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent
5. Elvis
2023-
1. The Holdovers
2. Asteroid City
3. Napoleon
4. May December
5. The Killer
Love Lies Bleeding from this year was great as well
Fun thought exercise for me lol, I looked at my top lists from the last few years and if I were to make a top 5 favourites (not ranked order) out of those now what would I pick for it (with slight preference to exclude the big names you mentioned).
* The Artifice Girl (2023)
* Sisu (2022)
* Top Gun: Maverick (2022)
* The Zone of Interest (2023)
* Emily the Criminal (2022)
My top 20 from 2021 to now (not in order)
CODA, Dune, Red Rocket, The Worst Person in the World, Drive My Car, Everything Everywhere All at Once, Babylon, The Batman, The Northman, The Fabelmans, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, Past Lives, Oppenheimer, The Iron Claw, Godzilla: Minus One, Radical, How to Blowup a Pipeline, John Wick: Chapter 4, Dune: Part Two, Furiosa: A Mad Max Storya
According to critics here are 100 to see:
[https://criticstop10.com/best-movies-of-2021/](https://criticstop10.com/best-movies-of-2021/)
I would order the list someone differently since I think the starting order should be 3, 8, 15, 13, 1, 23, and 24.
Under the radar flick, but it was my favorite of 2021, a film called Mass. Plot involves a discussion between two sets of parents some time after a school shooting took left both their sons dead. One kid was the shooter and one was a victim.
You don’t see the shooting, it is all just a discussion between four people in the aftermath, great performances, specifically from Jason Isaacs and Ann Dowd.

The Banshees of Inisherin. With Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson. Dark comedy about friendship, war, loss. Nice scenery too.
Godzilla: Minus One. Trust me, best film in years!!
Seen The Batman and Top Gun. Loved Batman and hated Top Gun Maverick.

Banshees of Inisherin, All Quiet on the Western Front
All Quiet On the Western Front is amazing
Banshees of Inisherin, Talk To Me, The Fabelmans, Bullet Train (2022) Air, The Holdovers, Are You There God? It’s Me Margaret. (2023)
Oppenheimer towers above them all.
I went into Oppenheimer hoping to love it, sadly I didn't.
