A Ranking Of The Best Films Of 2023

There's no getting away from the fact that 2023 was a strange year for film. The writers' strike and the actors' strike put a stop to movies for months. "Barbenheimer" fever gripped the nation in the summer. Pop stars took over the screens in the fall.* Everything was up in the air — but when we look back, we still got to watch a ton of excellent films. These are 2023’s very best movies.**


*The movies from Taylor Swift and Beyoncé did not qualify for this list as they are not narrative movies. Sorry!


**To create our list, we combined the ratings from IMDb, Metacritic, the Rotten Tomatoes Tomatometer, and the Rotten Tomatoes audience score for each film — multiplying the IMDb score by 10 to make the math work — and arrived at an average score for all of them. The movie with the highest average wins, with any ties broken by the IMDb score. Figures were correct as of December 5, 2023.
