Despite a tumultuous year for the film industry, with box office revenues down 19% through June, cinema continues to captivate audiences. However, the decline in ticket sales has led to a shift in the types of movies being released, giving independent and foreign productions a chance to shine.

This list of top 2024 releases, in alphabetical order, features a diverse range of films that are worth experiencing. From grand epics to intimate stories, these movies showcase the best of what Hollywood has to offer.

Bikeriders, directed by Jeff Nichols, is a standout in the “bros just being cool” subgenre, starring Tom Hardy, Austin Butler, and Jodie Comer. The film’s stunning performances, black leather jackets, and nostalgic soundtrack make it a captivating ride.

Civil War, directed by Alex Garland, is a timely and thought-provoking dystopian thriller that poses important questions about the role of media and government. By leaving these questions unanswered, the film’s silence speaks volumes.

Dune: Part Two, directed by Denis Villeneuve, is a highly anticipated sci-fi epic that features stunning visuals and impressive performances from Timothee Chalamet and Zendaya.

Ghostlight, directed by Keith Kupferer, is a small but powerful film about grief, forgiveness, and the healing power of art. With a stellar performance from Kupferer, this movie is sure to leave audiences emotional.

Horizon: An American Saga — Chapter 1, directed by Kevin Costner, is a sprawling epic that sets the stage for the next three chapters in the Horizon series. With its stunning visuals and ambitious storytelling, this film is a must-see.

La Chimera, directed by Alice Rohrwacher, is a whimsical and Felliniesque Italian grave robber story that features a standout performance from Josh O’Connor.

Love Lies Bleeding, directed by Rose Glass, is a provocative and sexy neo-noir that fuses elements of body horror, sensuality, and grime. With a star-studded cast, including Kristen Stewart, Katy O’Brian, and Ed Harris, this film is a must-see for fans of bold and daring cinema.

Honorable mentions include Furiosa, The Fall Guy, Snack Shack, Ezra, Lisa Frankenstein, Hundreds of Beavers, The First Omen, and A Quiet Place: Day One.
