FILMS OF 2015

FILMS OF 2015

So here it is my list of the Top Ten Films of the Year. Followed by my Bottom Ten Flops of the year and then if you're interested where they all ranked in descending order. 2015 wasn't a huge year for me and cinema visits, I only managed a paltry 80 visits of which 7 were multiple viewings of the same films and one was a re-issue of a classic old film and so doesn't rank in the Top Ten because if it did it would be in 6th place.

2015 produced more 10/10 films than any year I can remember and started off fantastically, however the summer proved to be a big disappointment and the year struggled to end on anything truly satisfying apart from Star Wars: The Force Awakens. I can't tell you how gutted I am not to use my trademarked slogan: The Farce Awakens which I'd written in anticipation of the film being terrible, much like I did with the dreadful prequels which I christened: The Phantom Denis, Attack of the Clowns and Revenge of the Pissed. Ah well.

Anyway, without further ado, here we go.
