| Inception | 2010 | 100 | 1 | |
| Amour | 2012 | 98 | 2 | (full review) - One of the most honest, emotional and moving films I've ever seen. A genuine, well-crafted drama that deserved to be a winner in Cannes. |
| Argo | 2012 | 95 | 3 | (full review) - I don't think there is anything I didn't like about this political thriller. Smart, engaging, funny and with top-notch performances. |
| Black Swan | 2010 | 95 | 3 | |
| Django Unchained | 2012 | 95 | 3 | (full review) - This is what I call badass! Profane, brutal, eccentric and highly entertaining. It's Tarantino's best work for years, an instant classic. |

| Whiplash | 2014 | 95 | 3 | |
| Zero Dark Thirty | 2012 | 95 | 3 | (full review) - I didn't expect anything less from Kathryn Bigelow. It's a spot on thriller again that kept me on the edge of my seat. Excellent filmmaking. |
| Beasts of the Southern Wild | 2012 | 93 | 9 | (full review) - This is a remarkable indie drama with Quvenzhane Wallis' mesmerising performance. Dreamlike and beautiful, an imaginative little story. |
