It’s always such a bummer to see the same crop of movies wind up on everyone’s top ten lists, so it pleases me to no end to find this year’s batch of mid-year lists featuring such a wide array of titles. Jordan Peele‘s Us is the one constant throughout, but aside from Steven Soderbergh‘s High Flying Bird (four lists) and Alex Ross Perry‘s Her Smell (three lists), there’s not much more overlap here.
Take a look below for all our picks and be sure to let us know what your favorites of the year are so far in the comments!
