I watched a lot of movies at home this year (87) and I feel like these movies get ignored as people only list current releases in their year-end lists. Well, I’ll be posting My Top Ten Movies Released In 2017 tomorrow. But I always enjoy this list slightly more. Once again, I watched some true older classics at home this year.
87 movies are too many to list but I do have the full list (ranked & rated because I’m a loser!) HERE if you really want to see them all plus which ones are at the very bottom (Lifeforce & The Neon Demon, FYI). So let’s talk about the 30 best ones!

See you tomorrow with My Top Ten Movies Of 2017 (released in the UK in 2017).
I love Sicario and Train to Busan!
You beat me to it! Those two are pure gold! Love ‘em
We really need more films like Sicario & Train To Busan. 😊
Me too! 😁 Fantastic films.
I think Rocky may need to go on my Blindspot list for next year. I’m not a big fan of boxing movies (I really disliked Million Dollar Baby and Raging Bull, for example), but Rocky is Rocky, right?
Train to Busan was great. I’m currently considering it for my own top ten of 2017. I don’t think it’ll place quite as high, but then I watched different old films so…
Yep! Put Rocky on your list for next year. There’s, like, almost no f*^king in the movie. Which is great. 😁 Raging Bull…. Ugh. I didn’t like that. But I loved Million Dollar Baby. Waaaaay more boxing in that than in Rocky. I promise. 🙂
I hope Train To Busan got a good ranking in the end. I WILL find out!
There are so many in your Top 10 I haven’t seen yet! Love that Rocky is number 1 though. I never expected to love it as much as I did.
Agreed! I never expected to like Rocky quite that much. Why didn’t anyone tell me there was SO little boxing in it?! Lol 🙂
I love your top 10. Sicario was amazing. I can’t wait for the second movie. Rocky is a classic favorite of mine. Million Dollar Baby ripped my heart out.
Yeah, Sicario isn’t at all the type of genre I normally go for but it was so GOOD. And I see why Rocky is a classic. And Million Dollar Baby ripped my heart out too, even though the whole story had been spoiled for me beforehand. 😦
I think Train to Busan deserved well to be so high. And I love seeing Dr. Strange way down on the list 😂
Train To Busan was great! Lol – I did like Doctor Strange! 30th out of 87 movies isn’t TOO bad… 😉

I have not seem most of your top 10. But I really liked The Wave and probably would have put it higher. I like that you have such a broad range of movie genres.
I really will watch most anything. lol. 🙂 I thought The Wave was pretty great. Certainly one of the better films I’ve seen in the disaster movie genre!
