4. The Insult (2017)
R | 113 min | Crime, Drama, Thriller
After an emotional exchange between a Lebanese Christian and a Palestinian refugee escalates, the men end up in a court case that gets national attention.
Director: Ziad Doueiri | Stars: Adel Karam, Kamel El Basha, Camille Salameh, Diamand Abou Abboud
Votes: 18,103 | Gross: $1.00M
It sounds like the setting of a “Curb Your Enthusiasm” episode: Two men from different cultural backgrounds exchange harsh words about an inconsequential issue that gets blown out of proportion, then deal with the fallout that just keeps coming. But Ziad Doueiri’s “The Insult” is anything but a cringe comedy. The Lebanese filmmaker’s followup to his masterful drama “The Attack” is a fascinating, parable-like exploration of the tension between two facets of Lebanon’s Arab community and the cross-cultural ramifications implied by their ridiculous feud. While it doesn’t quite justify the sprawling courtroom antics or the blunt metaphor they entail, the movie nevertheless provides a profound look at the effect of historical trauma on modern Lebanese society.
5. Black Panther (2018)
PG-13 | 134 min | Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi
T'Challa, heir to the hidden but advanced kingdom of Wakanda, must step forward to lead his people into a new future and must confront a challenger from his country's past.
Director: Ryan Coogler | Stars: Chadwick Boseman, Michael B. Jordan, Lupita Nyong'o, Danai Gurira
Votes: 837,972 | Gross: $700.06M
Ahead of summer’s all-star Avengers blow-out, Marvel will first drop this Black Panther stand-alone adventure directed by Creed’s Ryan Coogler and starring Chadwick Boseman, Lupita Nyong’o, Michael B. Jordan, Danai Gurira, and Angela Bassett, among many others. Its great trailers suggest it may be the most daring effort from the superhero studio yet.

6. The Party (I) (2017)
R | 71 min | Comedy, Drama
Janet hosts a party to celebrate her new promotion, but once the guests arrive, it becomes clear that not everything will be going down as smoothly as the red wine.
Director: Sally Potter | Stars: Timothy Spall, Kristin Scott Thomas, Patricia Clarkson, Bruno Ganz
Votes: 21,038 | Gross: $0.75M
7. Loveless (2017)
R | 127 min | Drama
A couple going through a divorce must team up to find their son who has disappeared during one of their bitter arguments.
Director: Andrey Zvyagintsev | Stars: Maryana Spivak, Aleksey Rozin, Matvey Novikov, Marina Vasileva
Votes: 35,571 | Gross: $0.57M
Russia has always been a cold and dreary place in the cinema of Andrey Zyvagintsev, who has dealt with family grievances against a backdrop of social commentary ever since his 2003 debut "The Return." But it's an especially domineering fixation in "Loveless," which couldn't have a more accurate title. The director's fifth feature (and highly anticipated followup to his masterful "Leviathan") follows the travails of a couple on the verge of splitting up, and the devastating impact that decision has on their 12-year-old child, who decides to flee. They spend most of the movie searching for him, but "Loveless" focuses less on the mystery than the grim circumstances responsible for it. While not the same league as "Leviathan," Zyvagintsev's latest slow-burn look at anguished people tortured by problems beyond their control displays his mastery of the form. A bleak, disquieting drama sustained by its performances and tone, the movie is such a haunting experience that it remains absorbing even when it doesn't go anywhere.
8. Annihilation (I) (2018)
R | 115 min | Adventure, Drama, Horror
A biologist signs up for a dangerous, secret expedition into a mysterious zone where the laws of nature don't apply.
Director: Alex Garland | Stars: Natalie Portman, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tessa Thompson, Benedict Wong
Votes: 361,849 | Gross: $32.73M
Alex Garland (Ex Machina) wrote and directed this sci-fi-horror film about a biologist who ventures into an environmental disaster area to search for her missing husband. Early buzz is strong for this ambitious project—and with a cast that includes Natalie Portman, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tessa Thompson, Gina Rodriguez, and Oscar Isaac, we understand why.

9. Red Sparrow (2018)

11. Foxtrot (II) (2017)
R | 113 min | Drama
A troubled family must face the facts when something goes terribly wrong at their son's desolate military post.
Director: Samuel Maoz | Stars: Lior Ashkenazi, Sarah Adler, Yonatan Shiray, Itay Exlroad
Votes: 8,061 | Gross: $0.62M
"Foxtrot" spends its first half hour as a bleak drama about distraught parents mourning their dead son, and then it becomes something entirely different. Israeli director Samuel Maoz's brilliant followup to his debut "Lebanon," which took place within the confines of a tank, deals with a very different kind of confinement — being imprisoned by an ambivalent world, and forced to deal with whatever random tragedies it chooses to dish out.
Yet despite its dreary overtones, Maoz pierces his milieu with flashes of perceptive satire, an animated interlude, and a touching, romantic finale, all of which adds up to a wonderfully unexpected hodgepodge of insights into intergenerational Israeli frustrations.
12. Gringo (2018)
R | 111 min | Action, Comedy, Crime
GRINGO, a dark comedy mixed with white-knuckle action and dramatic intrigue, explores the battle of survival for businessman Harold Soyinka (David Oyelowo) when he finds himself crossing the line from law-abiding citizen to wanted criminal.

Director: Ava DuVernay | Stars: Storm Reid, Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon, Mindy Kaling
Votes: 47,807 | Gross: $100.48M
Ava DuVernay (Selma) takes the reigns of this big-budget Disney fantasy film, an adaptation of Madeleine L’Engle’s book about a young girl, her brother, and her friend’s odyssey into space to find her father courtesy of three mystical figures. With Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon, Mindy Kaling, Chris Pine, Michael Pena, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, and Zach Galifianakis leading the charge, it seems primed for box-office triumph

21. Lean on Pete (2017)
R | 121 min | Adventure, Drama, Sport
A teenager gets a summer job working for a horse trainer and befriends the fading racehorse, Lean on Pete.
Director: Andrew Haigh | Stars: Charlie Plummer, Amy Seimetz, Travis Fimmel, Steve Buscemi
Votes: 13,953 | Gross: $1.16M
A searching, violently unsentimental coming-of-age drama about all the things we have to offer one another, Andrew Haigh’s “Lean on Pete” isn’t the kind of heartwarming indie that its opening moments might lead you to expect. In fact, the further this story bends towards any sort of preciousness, the more unforgiving it becomes. In other words, the film is par for the course for the writer/director behind cinematic gut-punches like “Weekend” and “45 Years.” Adapted from the Willy Vlautin novel of the same name, this ambling neo-Northwestern begins in earnest when Charley comes across a local racetrack on one of his early morning runs. Entranced by all the pretty horses, he catches the attention of surly trainer Del Montgomery (Steve Buscemi), who offers to throw him a few bucks for some help at a race a few towns over.

Director: Lynne Ramsay | Stars: Joaquin Phoenix, Judith Roberts, Ekaterina Samsonov, John Doman
Votes: 127,716 | Gross: $2.53M
Winner of the Best Screenplay and Best Actor awards at 2017’s Cannes Film Festival, this revenge thriller from writer/director Lynne Ramsay (We Need to Talk About Kevin) stars Joaquin Phoenix as a hired killer who unearths dark secrets while trying to save a girl from a life of prostitution. All the elements are in place for a top-rate genre effort.
Joaquin Phoenix stumbles through every scene in Lynne Ramsay’s “You Were Never Really Here” as if he overslept, dashed out of bed, and accidentally rushed into the abandoned set of a film noir, then forgot what he was supposed to do. The results are thrilling and frustrating, often within the constraints of a single scene. It’s an enticing challenge for the writer-director to develop a stylish mood piece out this flimsy material, adapted from a Jonathan Ames novella as a series of textured moments. The movie is an elegant homage to a mold of scrappy detective stories that often collapses into a concise pileup of stylish possibilities.

Votes: 89,572 | Gross: $1.21M
Panos Cosmatos’ 2011 Beyond the Black Rainbow is one of the decade’s truly great genre films, a trippy sci-fi nightmare that has to be seen to be believed.

Given that Lucasfilm fired its original directors (The Lego Movie’s Phil Lord and Christopher Miller) mid-production and replaced them with Ron Howard, this origin story for Han Solo (played by Alden Ehrenreich) is one of 2018’s biggest question marks. And, probably, also one of its biggest hits.

Steve McQueen’s last film (12 Years a Slave) won Best Picture at the Academy Awards; for his newest endeavor, he’s collaborating with Gone Girl author Gillian Flynn for a thriller about four women who decide to finish the heist that led to the deaths of their criminal husbands. If that weren’t enough, he’s assembled what’s arguably 2018’s best cast: Viola Davis, Elizabeth Debicki, Michelle Rodriguez, Cynthia Eviro, Colin Farrell, Daniel Kaluuya, Liam Neeson, Robert Duvall, Carrie Coon, Garret Dillahunt, Jacki Weaver, Brian Tyree Henry, and Jon Bernthal.

Directors: Christopher Radcliff, Lauren Wolkstein | Stars: Alex Pettyfer, James Freedson-Jackson, Emily Althaus, Gene Jones
Votes: 2,837
Creepy, slow-burn portraits of alienation and discordant relationships have been a recurring motif in these filmmakers' other shorts: Christopher Radcliff's “Jonathan's Chest” involves a teenager confronting the abrupt reappearance of a brother with a mysterious past, while Lauren Wolkstein's “Social Butterfly” finds a thieving interloper wandering through a house party and pretending to know its hosts…the journey there is compelling enough to make it worth the investment, offering further confirmation of two directors keen on bucking expectations, and likely to keep it up as they continue to hone their talent. “The Strange Ones” isn't a giant step forward for the pair, but it's just enough to prove they have the chops to take one.
70. Blame (I) (2017)
Not Rated | 100 min | Drama, Mystery, Thriller
A drama teacher's taboo relationship with an unstable student strikes a nerve in her jealous classmate, sparking a vengeful chain of events within their suburban high school that draws parallels to 'The Crucible'.
Director: Quinn Shephard | Stars: Quinn Shephard, Marcia DeBonis, Elizabeth Howell, Carlyle Owens
Votes: 3,251
Filmmaker Quinn Shephard didn't go to film school — instead, she made her own. The New Jersey native was just 15 when she came up with the idea for what would become her feature directorial debut "Blame," a modern high school-set take on Arthur Miller's classic play "The Crucible." Seven years later, Shephard is at the Tribeca Film Festival with the film, one that she not only stars in, but also wrote, directed, edited and produced. At 22, she's reached a benchmark that usually takes most filmmakers a few more years of work.
The film follows Shephard as high school outcast Abigail Grey, who returns to high school after a mysterious incident the year before, only to form a taboo bond with her new drama teacher (Chris Messina). As their relationship blossoms in very unexpected ways, Abigail's nemesis Melissa (Nadia Alexander) observes from afar, continually threatening to bust the entire situation wide open (a witch hunt? maybe).
71. Django (2017)
PG-13 | 117 min | Biography, Drama, Music
The story of Django Reinhardt, famous guitarist and composer, and his flight from German-occupied Paris in 1943.
Director: Etienne Comar | Stars: Reda Kateb, Cécile de France, Bea Palya, Bimbam Merstein
Votes: 2,032 | Gross: $0.05M
“Django” deserves credit for refusing to fit its subject into the straightjacket of a survival tale, and Reda Kateb’s expressive turn — much of which is captured in close-ups — provides the story with a richness that the writing struggles to achieve on its own. A huge percentage of the movie is devoted to scenes of Reinhardt plucking at his guitar, and Kateb sweats out so much of his character’s essence that each number feels like an extremely revealing monologue; either the actor trained his ass off, or he and Etienne Comar have raised the bar when it comes to finger-picking fakeness.
72. A Fantastic Woman (2017)
R | 104 min | Drama
Marina, a transgender woman who works as a waitress and moonlights as a nightclub singer, is bowled over by the death of her older boyfriend.
Director: Sebastián Lelio | Stars: Daniela Vega, Francisco Reyes, Luis Gnecco, Aline Küppenheim
Votes: 27,284 | Gross: $2.02M
The result is a rare movie about a trans person that — for better or worse — feels of its time, and not at least a half-step behind. The casual (and then not so casual) prejudice that Marina has to put up with from Orlando’s family is completely believable, as are the pockets of space where she’s able to simply be her own person, whether during her shifts as a waitress or just sitting alone in her car, anonymous amidst the traffic. Daniela Vega plays her character with the steady resolve of someone who knows that they bring out the worst from strangers, and the rookie does a remarkable job of negotiating a heartache that she’s told she isn’t entitled to feel, delicately sliding between love and blankness, and rage. I suspect she’s drawing upon first-hand experience.
73. Double Lover (2017)
Not Rated | 107 min | Drama, Romance, Thriller
Chloé, a fragile young woman, falls in love with her psychoanalyst, Paul. A few months later she moves in with him, but soon discovers that her lover is concealing a part of his identity.
Director: François Ozon | Stars: Marine Vacth, Jérémie Renier, Jacqueline Bisset, Myriam Boyer
Votes: 13,669 | Gross: $0.17M
"What the hell am I looking at?" That's the question most viewers will likely ask themselves during the opening moments of François Ozon's ("Swimming Pool") latest film. Following the opening credits sequence, in which a severe young woman's face is revealed as her bangs are snipped away from over her face, Ozon cuts to an extreme close-up of something pink and fleshy and soft as gauze. Is it the soft tissue of a human brain? The camera begins to zoom out. The inside lining of an open mouth? The camera zooms out even further, until… the young woman's clitoris comes into focus at the top of the frame, as do the gynecological devices that are prying her vagina open. It's a hilariously explicit way of starting a movie, even before Ozon punctuates the moment with a match-cut to the girl's eyeball, cementing the relationship between her sex and her psychology.
74. The Cage Fighter (2017)
Unrated | 81 min | Documentary, Action, Drama
A blue-collar family man breaks the promise he'd made to never fight again. Now forty years old, with a wife and four children who need him, Joe Carman risks everything to go back into the fighting cage and come to terms with his past.
Director: Jeff Unay | Stars: Vernon Beach, Callie Carman, Delanee Carman, Joe Carman
Votes: 275 | Gross: $0.00M
The feature-length debut of director Jeff Unay, “Cage Fighter” hails from a tradition of intimate cinema verité that encompasses so many details from the lives of its subject that it may as well be a scripted drama. Shot over the course of three years, the movie captures every facet of Joe Carman’s tiring life: His domestic struggles with his second wife, who suffers from a bone disease; the legal problems he faces when his first wife threatens to take their children out of state; the denigration he receives from his crude, alcoholic father; Carman’s own uneven attempts to be a good parent. It’s a constant pileup of dead ends. With all these pressures barreling down on him, Carman finds some modicum of comfort at the gym, where he endures grueling training sessions and routinely subjects himself to painful, messy brawls in front of screaming crowds. The showdowns make for riveting performances that provide Carman with an outlet for his frustrations and raise the possibility that he has a death wish.
75. Thoroughbreds (2017)
R | 92 min | Comedy, Crime, Drama
Two upper-class teenage girls in suburban Connecticut rekindle their unlikely friendship after years of growing apart. Together, they hatch a plan to solve both of their problems-no matter what the cost.
Director: Cory Finley | Stars: Olivia Cooke, Anya Taylor-Joy, Anton Yelchin, Paul Sparks
Votes: 46,439 | Gross: $2.83M
Set in the affluent suburbs of Connecticut (the word "Greenwich" is somehow never spoken), "Thoroughbred" unfolds like "American Psycho" meets "Heathers" as directed by a young and extremely class-conscious Park Chan-wook. Picking up where "Equus" left off, the story begins as a teenage girl named Amanda (Olivia Cooke) returns to society after euthanizing her family's horse with savage indifference. The incident seems to have caused a bit of a stir amongst the local kids, but it's hardly out of character for the pretty high school senior, who is all but incapable of experiencing human emotion and vows to "Steve Jobs her way through life." She doesn't have Asperger's or borderline personality disorder — she's been tested for both — she just can't feel anything.
76. Final Portrait (2017)
R | 90 min | Biography, Comedy, Drama
The story of Swiss painter and sculptor Alberto Giacometti.
Director: Stanley Tucci | Stars: Geoffrey Rush, Armie Hammer, Tony Shalhoub, Sylvie Testud
Votes: 6,073 | Gross: $0.46M
Working with “The King’s Speech” and “The Danish Girl” cinematographer Danny Cohen, Stanley Tucci paints this world entirely in greyscale, crafting a visual aesthetic heavily reminiscent of French street photography of the era. Indeed, it is no chance of luck that our most endearing photos of the real Giacometti were shot by Henri Cartier-Bresson, one of the leading figures of that movement. Though the film is all surface, that surface is precisely the point. Watching “Final Portrait,” you get the feeling as if a Robert Doisneau photo had opened itself up you, and for an hour and half, invited you inside. As a bit of art-house escapism, that it is a trip well worth taking.
77. Chappaquiddick (2017)
PG-13 | 106 min | Biography, Drama, History
Depicting Ted Kennedy's involvement in the fatal 1969 car accident that claims the life of a young campaign strategist, Mary Jo Kopechne.
Director: John Curran | Stars: Jason Clarke, Kate Mara, Ed Helms, Bruce Dern
Votes: 14,606 | Gross: $17.40M
John Curran approaches the material with a pointed perspective that lays bare all of Teddy’s worst impulses and tragic obsessions. “Chappaquiddick” is just as consumed by the various theories as to what scars mark the Kennedys as America has been for decades, but Curran confidently layers on the various forces – reputation, legacy, hubris, family – that push and pull Teddy not just from choice to choice, but moment to moment. Joe Kennedy (Bruce Dern, perfectly calibrated as ever) looms most immediately over the plot, a felled giant who literally whispers terrible ideas into Teddy’s ear, but other ghosts haunt every moment. From Bobby and Jack’s deaths to his crumbling marriage, his lack of desire to be president and his wish to be his own man, Teddy can’t get out from under the weight of the world, even though he remains convinced that he’s still got some sort of special Kennedy compass guiding him. It mostly guides him woefully astray.
78. The Rider (2017)
R | 104 min | Drama, Western
After suffering a near fatal head injury, a young cowboy undertakes a search for new identity and what it means to be a man in the heartland of America.
Director: Chloé Zhao | Stars: Brady Jandreau, Mooney, Tim Jandreau, Lilly Jandreau
Votes: 20,649 | Gross: $2.42M
You can't fake "The Rider." Chloe Zhao's lyrical docudrama blends fact and fiction into an intimate portrait of American masculinity at large and a solitary cowboy trying to find his way back to the only life he's known. Utilizing a cast of non-actors — most of whom are tasked with playing versions of themselves, in a story pulled from their lives — Zhao's film derives its power from the truth that both drives it and inspires it, and the final result is a wholly unique slice-of-life drama. Zhao first made waves with her 2015 feature debut "Songs My Brothers Taught Me," a festival favorite set on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota that tracked the bond between a pair of Lakota siblings. It's also where she discovered young rodeo cowboy Brady Jandreau, who makes his debut in "The Rider" as an on-screen version of himself in the worst period of his own life.
79. Zama (2017)
Unrated | 115 min | Drama, History
Based on the novel by Antonio Di Benedetto written in 1956, on Don Diego de Zama, a Spanish officer of the seventeenth century settled in Asunción, who awaits his transfer to Buenos Aires.
Director: Lucrecia Martel | Stars: Daniel Giménez Cacho, Lola Dueñas, Matheus Nachtergaele, Juan Minujín
Votes: 7,144 | Gross: $0.20M
Few films have done more to unite the international film community than “Zama.” The minutes-long opening titles list over 20 different production companies and regional supports. The nominally Argentinian film is a joint venture between nine other countries as well, and the end credits name figures as diverse as Danny Glover, Pedro Almodóvar, and Gael Garcia Bernal among the many other who jumped on to help this project through a troubled, many year production. Finally complete, Lucrecia Martel's film promises to be significantly more divisive. Technically an adaptation of Antonio Di Benedetto acclaimed modernist novel, "Zama" reads just as much like an open declaration of war against the line that separates form and content. The source text told the story of an 18th century magistrate driven to madness while waiting for his next post; the film forces the viewer to go mad right there with him.
80. Flower (I) (2017)
R | 90 min | Comedy, Drama
A sexually curious teen forms an unorthodox kinship with her mentally unstable stepbrother.
Director: Max Winkler | Stars: Zoey Deutch, Kathryn Hahn, Tim Heidecker, Adam Scott
Votes: 10,427 | Gross: $0.33M
Max Winkler’s “Flower” is nothing if not a coming-of-age story, but it’s explicitly clear from the very first scene that the film’s teen characters have already lost their innocence a long time ago. We open in the front seat of a cop car, as 17-year-old Erica (“Before I Fall” star Zoey Deutch, acing another tricky lead role) gives a dispassionate blowjob to a uniformed police officer. Not that she doesn’t enjoy giving head — Erica has a sketchbook filled with immaculate drawings of every penis that she’s ever put in her mouth — but, like just about all of her sexual encounters to date, this hook up is purely transactional. It’s a simple grift, and one that’s never played for titillation: Erica uses her jailbait charms to seduce the pants off whatever skeezy men she can find in the San Fernando Valley, her friends pop up out of the bushes and capture footage of the statutory rape on their iPhones, and then they kindly escort their marks to the nearest ATM for a tidy payout. It sounds criminal, but Erica thinks of it more like vigilante justice that’s been seasoned with some light entrapment.
81. Disobedience (2017)
R | 114 min | Drama
A woman returns to her Orthodox Jewish community that shunned her for her attraction to a female childhood friend. Once back, their passions reignite as they explore the boundaries of faith and sexuality.
Director: Sebastián Lelio | Stars: Rachel Weisz, Rachel McAdams, Alessandro Nivola, Anton Lesser
Votes: 36,074 | Gross: $3.48M
Sebastián Lelio's "Disobedience" is a beautiful, fraught, and emotionally nuanced drama that wrestles with hard questions about the tension between the life we're born into and the one we choose for ourselves. The title alone suggests a holy status quo, as well as a biblical impulse to spurn it. A lesbian love story that's set in a community where unmarried men and women aren't even allowed to touch each other and the patriarchy has made itself divinely unimpeachable, the film uses the preordination of sexuality as a lens through which to confront the strictures of faith and the role they impose on self-identity.
