Like last year, here are my top 25 film recommendations out of all the feature films I watched during 2025. In total I watched 106 films (including 4 rewatches), down from 143 last year. My target is generally 104- which is two (new to me) watches a week, which I like to think is a manageable amount. My film watching this year definitely ebbed and flowed, with some periods of watching several a week, including more than one a day, contrasting with large stretches of not watching any for weeks at a time. I hope to be more consistent with it this year, but of late I’ve been finding it hard to make the time for it for various reasons.
Anyway, without further ado, here is the list! This is in no particular order. The title of the film is in bold, followed by the the date which it was made according to IMDb (in brackets) and then the name of the director(s).
