Todd Field’s “TÁR” seems to be the critical darling this year, so it’s not that surprising to see it top this poll. Ditto Martin McDonagh’s “The Banshees of Inisherin” another critically championed film. Also, Ruben Ostlund’s “Triangle of Sadness” seems to be really loved over here — taste! Some of the more surprising inclusions included three films in the top 20 that received a bad rep from critics: “Blonde” (#9), “Babylon” (#10) and “Bardo” (#17). A critical reappraisal could occur for some, or all, of these in the coming years. RESULTS:
