RT: CRITICS PICK THE BEST MOVIES OF THE LAST 25 YEARS
show list info
RT description: In celebration of Rotten Tomatoes' 25th anniversary, we asked critics to submit their top films and TV shows released in the past 25 years!
Critics' top movies since the Tomatometer's inception reflect various titles and tastes; each represents the state of the industry and popular culture, from timeless classics to technical feats. They include iconic award-winners like Parasite and Mad Max: Fury Road. Beside those are hits from beloved directors like Barry Jenkins, Quentin Tarantino, Jordan Peele, the Wachowskis, and the Coen brothers. Epics like The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, Black Panther, and Paddington 2 also share their ranks.
Here's how it worked: We sent out a survey to individually approved Tomatometer critics, asking them to choose (in no particular order) their top five movies and top five TV series released in the last 25 years. Then, we tallied their votes, narrowed down the most popular 25 titles, and voila! We have our lists.
