The 10 Best Movies of the Last 25 Years, Ranked by Collider

"There's been a daunting number of great movies released over the past quarter of a century, with the period encompassing – as of 2024 – a period that dates back from the present to the very end of the 1990s. 1999 itself was a particularly strong year for cinema, and then the 2000s and 2010s kept the hot streak alive, so to speak. Even a pandemic and strikes in the early 2020s haven't entirely put a stop to great movies getting released in this first half of a still ongoing decade. Because of how many good movies there are, narrowing things down to just a small selection – intended to highlight the very best of the best – is something of a fool's errand, but fools have to do something to pass the time. Go easy on the opinion of one fool, and that fool's picks for the best movies of the last 25 years. By no means does such a small ranking imply there aren't countless other great films released during the period in question." - collider.com
