Below, we collect every year-end Top Ten list published by major film critics and publications. This page will be updated throughout December and January whenever new lists are published; be sure to check back frequently.

Added in this update (12/27): Boston Herald, Chicago Reader, Chicago Sun-Times, Den of Geek, The Dissolve, Film.com (consensus), The Hollywood Reporter, In Contention (Lodge), New Orleans Times-Picayune, Newsday, NOW Magazine, The Playlist, Salon, Salt Lake Tribune, San Francisco Chronicle, Seattle Weekly, Sioux City Journal, Slashfilm, Time Out New York, USA Today

Below is our updated running tally of the films most frequently mentioned by individual critics on their year-end Top Ten lists. Note that if a critic ranks more than the standard 10 films, we will not include films ranked 11th or worse. In case of a tie for first or second, each film will receive the full points for that position. Our points system works as follows:

• 3 points for each 1st place ranking
• 2 points for each 2nd place ranking
• 1 point for being ranked 3rd - 10th, or for being included on an unranked list

Individual critic top ten lists

Below are the 107 individual top ten lists published by the film critics regularly included in Metacritic's score calculations, as well as a few extra lists from additional prominent film sources. Some critics merely list ten films without ranking them in order; such lists are displayed below, without numbers, in alphabetical order.

Two-dimensional analogy of spacetime distortion generated by the mass of an object. Matter changes the geometry of spacetime, this (curved) geometry being interpreted as gravity. White lines do not represent the curvature of space but instead represent the coordinate system imposed on the curved spacetime, which would be rectilinear in a flat spacetime.
