Top 10 films of 2015

Finally it's here, my overdue top 10 film list of 2015. I've only done this now, because there was a bunch of 2015 releases out in the cinema in January that I wanted to see before making the list. (although there are still a quite a few others I want to see). Now 2015 was a pretty solid year for films, though there hasn't really been that many standout releases compared to 2014 but it has still been more solid overall.
This years list has been one that I've actually found difficult to sort and it's the first year in a while where I haven't had a definitive film of the year, so the order of these films may not be definitive, but they are still my current ten favourites of 2015.

Honourable Mentions
Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation
The Hateful Eight (in 70mm)
Kung Fury
Sicario

10. SPL II: A Time For Consequences

 A sequel in name only, I absolutely loved this, A chaotic Martial film, filled with great action and melodrama and Tony Jaa!

Room (2015)

One of this year's Oscar contenders, Room is a strong emotional drama filled with tense moments, sad moments, dark moments and happy touching moments. It's solid emotional core made possible through strong central performances from Brie Larson and Jacob Tremblay, though the rest of the cast also do a good job, with some of it's side characters having very interesting traits that adds to the films overall depth. It also some interesting cinematography especially when trying to show Jacobs point of view on things.
Admittedly some of it's dialogue is a little hokey and it arguably tries a little too hard to pull at your heartstrings but film works and is a genuinely great drama with a big heart. Just remember if a stranger asks you to help with his sick dog...you should probably say no. ****
