I was lucky enough to be able to see more movies than ever before in 2018, and write about almost every single one of them. It’s been a fantastic experience, and I (thankfully) enjoyed far more movies that I saw than I disliked. Unfortunately, there were still plenty that I never got the opportunity to see, including several that you’ll find on many others’ top films of the year lists. I can only choose out of the ones I’ve seen, so here are my personal favorites. Feel free to share your own list, and I hope you had a great time at the movie this year. I know I did.
