Watched The Substance last night and felt the farcical come comedic NYE theatre scene ruined what was on track to be a brilliant movie

Memoir Of A Snail needs more love.
Okay, going with the criteria of things that came out in one way or another in 2024:
1. Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World - one of the funniest films I've ever seen, and one of the most genuinely brilliant insights into the current state of things. Just absolutely nails it.
2. The Zone of Interest - a masterpiece that almost a year since I saw it still haunts me. Again, a perfect encapsulation of the state of the globe in 2024.
3. Last Summer - prickly film that has stayed burrowed in my mind since seeing it.
4. Evil Does Not Exist - a beautiful film. Ryusuke Hamaguchi is one of my favourite film makers working today.
5. No Other Land - a stunning documentary that's sadly very underseen.
6. All of Us Strangers - I've never heard as much sobbing in a cinema as I did watching this. Incredibly moving, a beautiful little film.
7. Furiosa - covers some of Fury Road's familiar ground but, hey, I adored Fury Road. Such great action.
8. About Dry Grasses - similar to Last Summer, a very prickly film that challenges the audience and doesn't provide easy answers.
9. Trap - such a fun ride. Nobody does it like M Night! Astoundingly good Josh Hartnett performance.
10. La chimera - I've always liked Josh O'Connor and I'm glad he had such a breakout year.
