Having watched Dunkirk and being a fan of movies made of this era, I was actually not a fan of it. However, I did enjoy Darkest Hour.
I would have to see them all to choose, so I can only go with Dunkirk as I have seen this one.
Saw Darkest Hour. Good, not Oscars worthy for Best Picture.
I really liked Get Out.
Wow. The Darkest Hour! Is that REALLY Gary Oldman!?!?
Not on this list, but I liked Coco the most from 2017. :)
I loved Get Out, but I'm excited to see all the others as well. So many great movies this year!
My favorite movie would have to be a kids movie because I am always watching movies with my kids and I loved Inside Out... I know not really Oscar type movie LOL!
I would say the darkest hour
1993, Philadelphia, starring Tom Hanks and Denzel
Call Me By Your Name!
