The Best Movies You (Probably) Didn’t See in 2018
Over 700 movies were released theatrically in 2018, and that doesn't even scratch the surface. When you factor in the many home video and streaming debuts and international films that didn't get an official release in the states, there's no way everyone had time to see them all. But that's what we have critics for!
We've compiled twenty of the most impressive motion pictures that got overlooked by the mainstream, for one reason or another, and which deserve to find a big audience all for themselves. We've got beautiful and eloquent dramas, blisteringly funny comedies, ultraviolent thrillers and eccentric genre-bending musicals, and an adorable kids film about a dog, just to cover all our bases.
