Dream Scenario is one of the best of the year. What a unique concept that's never been shown before tackling issues of cancel culture, fame, social boycott, isolation and discrimination.
Genuinely shocked it didn't get "picked up" by movie fans and taken to wider popularity. The movie has everything and it's so funny as well.
@@ImpressionBlend Just watched this movie yesterday and I started having weird nightmares while sleeping. This movie definitely impacted me on a deeper level 🤯
Absolutely loved Dream Scenario. It's my favorite A24 film of 2023
It was my second favorite of the year after Maestro and I’m still debating which of the two is actually my favorite.
@@ImpressionBlendagreed 😊
Godzilla Minus One is so good! Probably my favorite theater experience of the year with that really intense sound design and especially atomic breath. Just absolutely stunned into silence!!!
Some of my favorite underrated/under-talked-about films of the year: Influencer, Fair Play, Are You There God It's Me Margaret, Bottoms, They Cloned Tyrone, Missing, and Saw X (I'm serious).
Fair play was pretty solid. I like Finestkind which just came out two weeks ago on paramount
My most underrated films of the year are “Monica” “Eileen” “Showing Up” “Of An Age” “The Creator” “Afire” “Sanctuary” “Gran Turismo” and now “Ferrari”
Beyond The Sea is BRILLIANT! I'm so glad you put it at number 1. I fee like people are not giving it enough credit. Amazing list as always!
This is the most underrated movie channel on youtube. Hope you get all the success you deserve. Great list as always🙏
Thank you so much!
Totally agree with "Beyond the Sea". Smart to categorized it as a movie. A very haunting conclusion and went is a added direction I did not think it would have.
My favorite thing about your channel, still to this day, is discovering underrated foreing movies. 😊 Happy new year!
Absolutely incredible video Marrianna. Really enjoyed this one. Awesome list. I definitely need to check out Godzilla Minus One. I’ve heard it’s absolutely amazing. Happy new year as well. Hope you have a great 2024.🥳👍
Interesting choices! Having seen Beyond the Sea, Dream Scenario and Blackberry, I agree with your selection, and am looking forward to watching the rest of the films you picked!
Daaaaamn! Those are some pretty alluring suggestions. I will need to check those out.
AWESOME video. Lots now added to my watchlist, and I agree wholeheartedly with the two I’ve seen: ‘Blackberry’ and your EXCELLENT #1 pick. Makes me want to rewatch it right now. Love your videos as always, and can’t wait for your Top 10 of the year
I always look forward to your year in videos like this. All very good titles mentioned, I would add a ton of international cinema to this though.
I always love seeing these type of lists from you. Really good picks! And I appreciate the love for The Iron Claw. Personally it was my favorite movie of 2023. Happy new year to you! ❤
Happy New Year to you too! Thank you for watching!
Your list was awesome! i can really feel your passion for movies and definitely want to see every one of them now
Every film you recommended here is now on my watch list. The details you share reflect an intelligence and love of cinema, not just movies. Happy, happy 2024!
I dissed your style of movie reviewing a while back, but I was wrong. You also get massive respect for having Blackberry and Godzilla Minus One on this list. You're definitely a cinephile.
Best wishes to you, and may you get to 100K subscribers.
Thank you! Happy New Year and best wishes to you as well!
Happy New Year to you as well! Thank you again for all of your great work!@@ImpressionBlend
Hi,
Thank you for this list. I am always surfing the net hunting for these kinds of films. It's great that people like you help give a louder voice to smaller under the radar films that might go unnoticed. I'm looking forward to watching your recommendation.
Thanks
Just watched The night of the 12th and it was great! Thank you for your recommendations for underrated movies… I don’t think I would have heard about movies like this or the vast of night if not for your videos. And everything that I have watched from your lists have been gems! Thanks for doing what you do! 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Loved your picks Marianna
Thanks. At the end of the year, I'm always looking for lists with a few movies that flew under my radar.
I really enjoyed the Irish language film, “An Cailín Ciúin”-“The Quiet Girl”-which I don’t think received the theatre distribution it deserved when it was released in Canada and the US back in March. I’m lucky enough to have an independent cinema near me, where I was able to see this beautiful, touching, and most memorable film about childhood, family, love and loss, and the effects of grief on our lives. It’s a bittersweet film that ends on a note of sadness, but also with a promise of hope, and it completely bowled me over emotionally the first time I saw it. I loved “The Quiet Girl” so much, I went back to see it three more times. I can’t remember the last time a film affected me so deeply. It should have won the Oscar for Best Foreign Film instead of losing out to “All Quiet on the Western Front” which, as good a film as it is, simply doesn’t measure up to “The Quiet Girl”. I think about this film every day.
yes, brilliant and very affecting film. I thought about it months after I had watched it which never really happens for me with any other movie.
Agree. Pure poetry. @@alzer6467
Its the best film I've seen in many years.
These are some great picks !
I’ve only seen a couple of them so far
And yes ! I want to be “emotionally stirred” when I’m watching a movie
i’m intrigued …. as long as it doesn’t makes me cry i’m def watching! congrats on your channel.
thank you for your continues content and recommendations
Several movies in this list that I had not heard of that I will definitely watch, thanks! 👌
I didn’t think Godzilla minus one was underneath it got a lot of love and attention ❤
Merci pour toutes ces recommandations! ❤Hello from France! :)
Finally, a list of different films; Thanks.
How To Blow Up A Pipeline is one of my top 15 for the year but I feel like nobody saw it! Very underrated film
Agreed, there were about 3 other people in the theater when I saw it
Great list of under rated gems, better than most main stream contenders, especially Blackberry.
My top three underrated were Theater Camp, Full Time and Sisu. I concur on your takes on Godzilla Minus One and Dream Scenario. Keep up the great work!❤
As the youngest of 5 brothers, I felt Chris von Erich's exclusion from The Iron Claw was a personal pet peeve. But still, a very intense and emotional drama.
Apparently they took him out because they felt that would just be too tragic.
I don't know if I fully agree with that being a reason to remove him, but I get it.
Love this list!
Thank you so much for the list! I needed something like this for today which I will be spending watching and catching up on movies :) Will watch the Black Mirror episode, which I had disregarded since so many people disliked this most recent season and it put me off. Watched Emily yesterday and I fully agree -- such a powerful and engrossing movie. One of my favorites this year!
Nicee. Gonna look Up for all of them
All of Us Strangers is another I've been wanting to see but isn't available yet where i live! You have me even more excited for it now.
I did see Dream Scenario in theaters though and loved
Gracias por divulgar muchas de estas películas que de ninguna otra manera nos enteraríamos!
Thanks for sharing this kind of films
I love it when you post ❤ happy new year 🎉
Aww thank you! Happy New Year to you as well!
Wonderful list!
A few movies I haven’t seen that I will be seeking out 💯
Thank you, Austin!! Happy New Year!
“BLUE JEAN” is one of the best films I saw this year, that not too many people have talked about.
It’s excellent
WHERE WAS THIS LADY, that was not in my youtube list or in my life??? Amazing list. Seen almost every movie. Going after the ones that I left in the way!
Great picks. I'll have to catch up on the ones I haven't seen.
One I want to throw out there is technically only a 2023 release because of NYFF, but I'm counting it. Bertrand Bonello's "The Beast." A French film starring Léa Seydoux and George MacKay. Set in 2044, where emotion is a threat to artificial intelligence, humans undergo a procedure to have all emotion erased by eliminating deep-rooted connections to past lives. So, the film takes place in 1910, 2014, and 2044 as a relationship between these two people is dissected through each period.
Thanks for all the great content in 2023, Marianna, and have a great 2024.
Thank you! Happy New Year!
I am DYING to see "The Beast", it looks like the kind of movie I would love, so definitely something I look forward to next year.
I've seen most of the films on your list and completely agree. I am going to make a point to see the remaining films. Some of my favorites from the Philadelphia Film Festival last October: Goodbye Julia, The Promised Land, The Teacher's Lounge, Green Border, Fallen Leaves, American Fiction, and The Old Oak.
I loved Blackberry and I'm glad it made your list.
Just watched it last night and enjoyed it. It did help to have some tech-splaining from my other half though.
Thanks for all the great content that you created for us in 2023 🤗
One more day till more fun videos from you to enjoy in 2024 🎉
Thank you for staying with me and always being so lovely in the comments! Happy New Year!!
@@ImpressionBlend You’re very welcome Marianna and I’m looking forward to having a fun filled 2024 with you 🤩
Happy New Year 🥳 to you!
I agree about Beyond the Sea, one of the highlights of the year, I was shocked after seeing it.
Great list! A few of those films I haven’t seen and I will definitely watch. Other films I feel that you may not have seen and you should check out are ‘Monica’, ‘Ferrari’, ‘Passages’, ‘Raging Grace’, and ‘Cat Person’! Amazing underrated films! 🎉
Mam what a underrated gem you are ... Plz try to make more of such content weekly 🙏
Happy New year 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you pretty girl,excelent recomendations,i missed 2,greetings from BOGOTA 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
The biggest hidden gem and personal favourite movie of the year for me was Linoleum. Have added The Five Devils and The Beasts to my watchlist. Thanks for the recommendations
My best friend and I wanted to see the Iron Claw so badly but my country decided to take it out of cinemas the weekend we wanted to see it! Luckily I’m travelling to the UK next week and it’s still in cinemas there so fingers crossed I can catch a showing.
Also, I just stumbled into your channel and it’s definitely one I’ll return to,.
I've watched a good number of 2023 best of lists and this one is by far the best...so refreshing to see a list full or foreign films and minus the comic book movies...
Been recommended Blackberry and The Iron Claw plenty, so I'll happily check them out. Godzilla Minus One was the last movie I saw in the theatre this year, surprised it came to my local, definitely one of my favourite movies this year, though I still want to see Past Lives and Anatomy of a Fall.
Glad I've seen some of your previous lists so I know you have pretty good taste. The only "film" I've seen on this list was the Black Mirror episode- have we dumbed it down that far? I've seen every episode of Black Mirror and I'm still waiting for them ever to really fully flesh out a concept. It's the New Years Eve of television- a lot of planning and always a dissappointing party.
I’m finishing the year reading John Truby’s Anatomy of Genre (after enjoying Anatomy of Story) there is so much to take in for both film study and StoryCraft studies. I’m LOVING Marianna’s video drops on my subscription timeline right next to Quotidian Writer.
Never even heard of ‘The Night of the 12th’ or ‘The Beasts’. Will 💯% VOD these. ‘Anatomy of a Fall’ is my favorite film of 2023. 🍿🍿🍿
I legitimately think this if the best list I’ve seen this year. I thought I was the only one that loved “Beyond The Sea” and “Emily”.
Wow I have to check out black mirror beyond. What a cast! Some of my faves
just saw beyond the sea. great !
Excellent no.1. Perfect final scene
Speaking of Black Mirror my favorite film length piece in the series was White Christmas with Jon Hamm. So bleak and yet felt real close to reality. I think it was season two, so not 2023. I like best feature length Black Mirrors getting season-end awards consideration. Great show, watched all seasons, all episodes this year. Would love more seasons
I'm gonna put in my list of top movies of 2023 next month. Waiting to watch the Zone of Interest and American Fiction.
This was a surprisingly good year for cinema
Priscilla & They Cloned Tyrone were super underrated in 2023
Check out Biosphere with Mark Duplass and Sterling K. Brown (and no one else). Simple concept (Two men trying to survive in the titular Biosphere after a cataclysmic event) that turns on its ear about midway through. Good, quiet movie, with great performances by the two leads.
I'm surprised I haven't seen The Five Devils. It even has one of my favorite Adeles in it. I'll check it out. Thanks
Some here that I haven't heard of, I'll add to the list. Thanks!
Some underrated films that I feel no one really talked about:
True Spirit
The true story about Jessica Watson who, at the age of 16, became the youngest person to sail solo around the world. But underneath it's really a celebration of nature and family.
Linoleum
A film about dreaming big and realising what life really is about.
Living
Based on a 1952 Japanese film, about a man coming to terms with the fact that being alive doesn't mean living.
No One Will Save You
A sci-fi horror that really surprised me with it's constant close encounters and almost no dialog at all.
Pinball: The Man Who Saved the Game
One of the most surprising films of the year for me, filmed as a mockumentary, it's funny, heartfelt, eyeopening and refreshingly honest.
does that 1952 Japanese movie happen to be Ikiru by Kurosawa?
@@drone124 Yes :)
Beyond the Sea now cued up for Sat night!
Wim Wenders’ “Perfect Days” is my favorite of 2023.
Gem of a movie, loved it! Give “Monster” (Kore-Eda) and “Of An Age” a try
Just watched the The Five Devils (Les cinq diables) absolutely brilliant film. The ending was very thought provoking.
I just subscribed because I like to feel things
Welcome! Happy New Year!
me too!
I’d like to include “Fallen Leaves” a romantic
gem from Finland, and “Fremont”, a beautiful moving tale about an Afghan immigrant trying to make the US her new home.
I wanted to love "Beyond the Sea", but it got a little tedious. I know that is kind of the point, but I lost interest when the writers introduced "why" David wanted to stay. It is such a rote explanation. I would have liked it more if he just fell in love with being alive and free and reaching a point where, after years of giving up on life, he did not want to give that back.
That said, I need to add SO many of the movies you named to my "must-watch" list. Thank you so much for this list, Mariana. I hope you have a wonderful 2024!
Idk if you watched Flora and Son but I thought that was pretty nice!
My top under the radar films this year were Return to Seoul and Riceboy Sleeps. Combined with Past Lives, they made for one heck of an emotional Korean trilogy of sorts. Riceboy Sleeps has one of the strongest emotional gut punches I’ve encountered in a long time. All three movies require tissues. Happy new year from Canada!
Riceboy Sleeps works on so many levels, I think it hits particularly hard for Asian males, but has a lot to say about masculinity in general, and being an outsider in a place you can never be anything else.
Riceboy sleeps is so beautiful! One of my favourite movies this year
Trenque Lauquen (2022, Laura Citarella)
Still waiting to see Anatomy of a Fall and The Zone of Interest but there should be more talk about Society of the Snow. An extraordinary film about this horrifying story, also based on a true story.
Hi I'm Steve. I like your channel.
Where were you, we've missed you, you've been away too long.But happy new year, hopefully see you more in2024.
'Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret.'
is my favourite underrated overlooked little gem of 2023.
Great 😊
It's frustrating that a lot of movies get released later around the world, I usually don't want to see them at that point. Why is it still like that in this day and age?
My number one underrated movie, is also my number one movie of 2023, Godzilla Minus One.
Another underrated movie is Sick Of Myself.
1- the starling girl
2- the year between
3- when you finsh saving the world
4- what happens later
Ahh, interesting #1. That haunted me. Hartnett says a lot in that final scene without saying anything.
There's a really charming film called "I like Movies", set in a VHS rental shop, that came out last year. Its fantastic. A witty and poignant film that's unfortunately gone under the radar of most reviewers.
I've heard of this one, actually! I need to check it out, thanks for reminding me
I'd love to watch Dream Scenario but is not here yet. I'm adding The Five Devils to my list now. 😊
I have to disagree on Beyond the Sea, though. I really enjoyed it BUT there was a massive plot hole that I just couldn't get past.
4:05 Isn't that the guy who played the farmer in the opening scene from Glorious Basterds?
Yup! That’s the one!
When Evil Lurks is definitely an underrated/obscure movie but considering it's a foreign/Latin American movie I'm not surprised.
Then there's The Sound of Freedom which was phenomenal. Disturbing as hell but gripping at the same time.
“When Evil Lurks” was pretty crazy, I agree!
The Bottoms, love at first sight, last call for Istanbul,
12th Fail from India should be on every must watch list this year.
I’m still mesmerized by how average the reviews for Beau is Afraid were. This stunning masterpiece alone made me loose a lot of interest towards movie critic platforms..
I really want every to watch Honk for Jesus, Save Your Soul, I went in last minute because the movie I was trying to see wasn't covered with my Regal unlimited, I was expecting a raunchy gross comedy and I was so shocked, It's a really great film and I want people to watch it. I also really want to see Dream Scenario and The Iron Claw
Putting a tv episode as #1 is crazy
Huh i thought i covered all good movies of this year and then there is she with gems
Excellent list, but I don't agree that Iron Claw, Godzilla and Dream Scenario are underrated. They are rated and praised high enough, even if they won't win awards.
Thank you! I include movies on lists like this that aren’t getting the viewership they deserve, so while they may be rated high by people who have seen them they are still under-appreciated from the audience size perspective.
Beyond the Sea was gut-wrenching, to say the least. Traumatizing as heck.
In My Mother's Skin is one of the underrated horror film this year
I would add "Ms Chatterjee vs Norway".
I did the biggest fan girl scream when I saw beyond the sea! Easily my fave of the season. Which unfortunately wasn’t that great. Wish BBC would take black mirror back.
Genuinely top 5 episode of the entire series for me, simply amazing!
THE HOLDOVERS , GOOD GRIEF
