Well, "is it just me or, is it getting crazier out there"? The dialogue from the Joker is too amazing. the story of a villain played by Joaquin Phoenix who might just clinch an oscar with this performance is a masterpiece and the best comic book movies of all time.

A fantastic movie of 2019 with an incredibly talented cast and with the addition of original humour which is rare to see. You can say that it is the funniest high-school movie of this year. I would encourage everyone to watch the movie and laugh their heart out. The main lead Olivia Wilde made her debut with this work. The movie is open to new things and the audience too welcomed it. There's no doubt why this movie is one of the best in 2019.
5. Parasite

It is full of twists, shocks and dark humour. It brilliantly captures the human greed and discrimination on screen. The movie has many powerful plots which could not be guessed easily. It's so realistic that you will say it's the real story of my life. Not a single scene wanders from the storyline which tightly focuses on its characters at all times. Overall it's an emotional movie with an excellent storyline.
6. The Farewell
This one with its universal theme and a pinch of humour in it cuts across culturally diverse audiences. Everyone in the movie did brilliant acting all around and the screenplay is combined with lo-fi music. It depicts the traditional differences between Chinese and American medical practitioners. You will cry through the movie and laugh too as it resonates even with the relationship with your elders in the family who are having a hard time. It is a complete family movie.
7. Uri - The Surgical Strike
The movie is full of energy showcasing how the Indian Army deals with the terrorists who try to infiltrate in India. There are moments which will give goosebumps, make you laugh, will moist your eyes but surely make you feel immensely proud of our national heroes and their achievements. Actor Vicky Kaushal is brilliant as Major Vihan Shergil he is a ruthless Army officer on the battlefield and a gentleman off the field. The action scenes are well shot combined with the sound effects and VFX makes it more effective. Last but definitely not the least, it gave us our pep dialogue ‘ How is the Josh?’
8. Kesari
What a scintillating performance by our Akshay Kumar, it was one of his careers best performance. It was a brilliant attempt by Anurag Singh to recreate the historical drama on the big screen where it is well-directed and well-presented. The story is based on the real-life battle fought in Saraghari between 21 soldiers of 36th Sikh Regiment of British Indian Army and more than 10k Afghan tribesmen. tribesmen. The plot itself incites curiosity even if you are not an ardent history lover.
Every single scene of the movie is so convincing that you do not have the opportunity to raise doubts if something like this could have actually happened. All the characters depicted have an emotional side of their own. Their individual s stories inter-related with the main plot makes you connect with them on an altogether different level. The end is too strong and emotional. It is a must-watch.
9. Super - 30
A really inspirational movie by Hrithik Roshan and a much-awaited one. "He will become the King who has calibre" sums up the effort of Mr Anand who wishes to make students coming from slums to get admissions into the most prestigious colleges of India into the IITs.
The brilliant mind of Anand and the student's curiosity of learning things from everything in their daily life to crack one of the toughest entrance exams to get into IITs is a must-see. The movie gets you a glimpse of the education crisis in India and how it has become a booming business. How Anand Kumar rose to the occasion by becoming an excellent teacher is the story of Super 30. The movie has made us emotional, eyes moist, laughs out loud, angry, and inspired.
10. Gully Boy
No doubt it is one of the best movies of the year. The film is about the inspiring journey of a young boy Murad played by Ranveer Singh. It highlights a struggling journey where the boy succeeds in the end to become a rap artist. This is an inspirational movie based on the real-life struggle and success of street rap artist Divine and Naezy. The screenplay is praiseworthy and typically different than other movies. The movie needs to be heard, watched and experienced in a true musical sense. It is a must-watch movie of the year which gives the lesson of following your dreams no matter where you come from.
The movies have had a great run in 2019, let’s see if 2020 could be any better.
