The Best Movie of 2023

Опубликовано 15 декабря 2023, 15:01

Considering 2023 was a year that saw some real lows for the movie industry – specifically the near-complete shutdown of Hollywood for months due to the writers and actors strikes – it also had some moments of genuine affirmation for fans of the cinema who have been fearing that the good old act of going to the movies may be on its way out. From Five Nights at Freddy’s to Taylor Swift’s music doc of her Eras Tour to two of our nominees for Best Movie of 2023, Barbie and Oppenheimer, there wound up being some legit “you gotta see these movies at the movies” moments this year. But what was the Best Movie of 2023?

It’s always a tricky thing picking our Best Movie nominees for the IGN Awards each year, because while we are aware of, and in some cases adore, the more hoity-toity arthouse fare that critics groups may go for during the inevitable EOY awards rush, we are also lovers of movies of all kinds – superhero movies, horror movies, sci-fi movies, and perhaps best of all… Keanu Reeves movies! However, these types of films don’t always get the level of recognition they deserve in other year-end round-ups or at awards shows. But they’re an integral part of what keeps the Hollywood machine ticking, and we at IGN can’t live without them.

So our picks for the best film of 2023 range that very gamut and beyond, from the latest Martin Scorsese epic Killers of the Flower Moon to the return of Miles Morales and his friends in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. From Christopher Nolan’s biopic about the man behind the A-bomb to the culmination of Baba Yaga’s four-film odyssey, John Wick: Chapter 4, we have tried to represent our favorite films from across the spectrum. And then there are the long shots that we loved, like Asteroid City, Joy Ride, Poor Things, Talk to Me and The Boy and the Heron.

But what is IGN’s Best Movie of the Year? Let’s get into it…
