In the age of franchise and remake movies. I love and appreciate every A24 film (good or bad). I love that A24 is putting out original creative films. Really saving art of film.
I agree!
A24 is the future of the industry
hereditary in "oh okay" and midsommar on "that was a lot".... those are elite to me as a long time horror fan. Ari aster is such a good director and screenwriter! Hope you enjoy "Beau is afraid" from the same director when it comes out.
I’m sooo excited to watch beau is afraid!!
preach
Midsommar is a long pretentious self serving ego centric extravanganza with stupid characters and unbelievable relationships.
I don't think shes a big horror fan coz Hereditary...Midsommar and Lighthouse are some of the best horror movies made in recent times
I'm a horror fan and for me Midsommar and Hereditary are super overrated.... don't know why, but both movies didn't influence me as much, as they did for a lot of people.
Some A24 movies I love that weren't mentioned are Marcel The Shell, Close, Climax, Ex Machina, A Ghost Story, Saint Maud, C'mon C'mon, Bodies x3, Under the Skin, EEAAO, Aftersun, X/Pearl and In Fabric
Also your Elite tier is *chefs kiss*
I included most of these but had to cut down the list when it came to film the video cause it was sooo many 😭 maybe i need to do a part 2!
@@cinemoniwe need a part 2 asap!!!
I love Ex Machina, had no idea it was an A24 film
When a studio sweeps the SAG, you know they're on 🔥
@@cinemoni a part 2 would be awesome!
Such a variety of interesting movies from A24! From disturbing horror like Midsommar to more fun horror like Bodies Bodies Bodies and beautiful drama like Minari! This will be great 👍
Yeah they are so good at choosing great movies from so many different genres
Thank you for showing some love to "20th Century Women." I've always felt that it should have received some more recognition, the performances and writing were strong across the board. Sadly, it seems to be mostly forgotten now.
Agree! It def needs more recognition
Mike Mills movies are great but 20th century women is kinda his worst imo. Beginners is probably the better one to start, and c'mon c'mon is my favorite of his. Joaquin Phoenix playing a cool uncle is everything.
TRINA WHY HAVE YOU COMMENTED ON LITERALLY EVERY RUclips VIDEO I HAVE VIEWED. GOD I'M SO CONFUSED- stranger things? seamus? dear kristin? FJ? THIS? random videos?
shi was ass
@@cambry4932 Haha, yes, I'm EVERYWHERE at this stage! Great minds certainly think alike, right?! 😉😁
No one EVER EVER talks about the movie Waves(2019). It’s truly my favorite A24 film along with EEAAO. Like I could watch that movie so many times. It a movie about a black suburban family and just dealing with grief and wow. It’s just such an underrated and fantastic gem and I’m sad no one ever talks about this film when talking about A24 films.
it is sooooooooooo good
fuck yeah
I was brought back to your channel due to the RUclips algorithm, and just finished binge watching all your movie related videos. I absolutely adore your taste in movies, and I just went on a spree of adding your recommendations to my watchlist! You have the sweetest personality, and deserve so much more recognition for the content you do 🫶
Aw thank you so much!!🥹💜 I appreciate it
The Lighthouse and Uncut Gems are better than anything you put on top... to each their own I guess :)
The lighthouse isn't just the best A24 film but one of the best movies ...EVER
It’s fun to see everyone’s opinions on where they would put certain movies! Tbh those are just not my type of movies but I can definitely understand why a lot of people loved them. I appreciate the filmmaking aspects and performances in both though! Very well crafted films.
@@alejandromangieri1495 i don't think you know what entitled means + you're wrong
but the oc was just a lighhearted discussion it wsn't that serious
i adore the lighthouse, its one of my favourite movies ever
absolutely loved this! I added some great new titles to my watchlist thanks to this video. We definitely need a part 2!
Glad you liked it!💗🫶🏼
Just last night I watched ‘The Last Black Man in San Francisco’ because you had recommended it. It was so unusual, charming, and visually beautiful. Thank you so much for your recommendation! ❤️ I may not have watched it on my own, as I tend to be obsessed with historical films. I am so glad that I watched it!
So glad you enjoyed it!! 💜 it’s truly a hidden gem
@@cinemoni it is not stfu.
I'm really wondering how Past Lives is going to rank when it comes out - it looks exactly to my taste! Also it's been a weird day is so thank you for your calming vibe and aesthetic.
I an dying to see it! Also hope u feel better 💜
Brendan Fraser's performance was the best thing about "The Whale." The film itself was just so so, in my opinion, but he elevates it to new levels. I hope that he gets the Best Actor Oscar, or if not him, then Austin Butler.
Yes! He was definitely the highlight
Por fin que encuentro a alguien que es objetivo con la película, ya que la peli no es muy buena, pero Brendan Fraser está muy bien en su actuación!
I respect your list! My Elite A24 list includes Minari, The Whale, Midsommar, The Farewell, Hereditary, Ex Machina, Good Time, and Everything Everywhere All At Once! I’m rooting for EEAAO to win the Oscar 🙏🏽
Great picks!!
love love hearing your opinions ahh, i'd adore a part 2!
Thank u! I’ll try to do one soon
Oeh I actually loved Uncut Gems! The pacing is insane but that's what I loved so much about it, also the 2000's vibes were so fun:)
Going to film part 2 soon! What A24 movies should I include?
definitely pearl!
Ex machine, everything everywhere all at once, good time
Mid90s!
The farewell :)
Saint Maud, Aftersun
A24 has been killing it with almost every release, and I’d add Aftersun to Elite tier, and Everything Everywhere All at Once too. I haven’t seen all the movies you’ve categorized at Elite, but I’ll definitely add them to my watch list. Thanks for the video! Will help me skip mid movies and find new favorites for sure!
I agree! I would’ve added those to elite for sure. And i’d say don’t skip the movies in the lower categories because you might really like them! We may have different tastes that’s all :)
Always so insightful Monika!!
🥰🥰🥰
Loved this. I think this is one of your best videos!
Aw thanks!!
Awesome, Now I got my recommendations to watch some of A24 films this weekend!
Yay!!
I love that The Florida Project is right where it should be. You described the film so well, too. Such a beautiful film. I just love it. My all time favorite. And I think the ending is perfect and beautiful.
Did you see C’mon C’mon? The only film other than The Florida Project to evoke tears from my eyes. Again, just a beautiful film. And powerful. You’ve got to see it if you didn’t.
And did you see Aftersun? It requires analysis after and at least two viewings, but also a must see! On first watch I was a bit underwhelmed, frustrated, and unsatisfying. It definitely was a “Why?” film for me at the time. But after some analysis (and a couple helpful RUclips videos), it made sense. And I really appreciated my second viewing. And without knowing, the film and its characters got under my skin in a way that I don’t think any film has before. I just can’t shake it, even many months later. And there are a couple songs from the film, anytime I hear them now, immediately I’m back in that place with those characters feeling those feels. It’s a must see, but also a must see, analyze, and see again. Ha. Elite tier for me now.
Hereditary and The Lighthouse are elite tier for me as well, but I can get them not being for everyone. I can tell horror isn’t really your genre. 🤣
All in all, excellent video. I really enjoyed your commentary on these films. It reminded me I NEED to see Eight Grade still, too! Your video catapulted it up towards the top of my list. 🙂 I had forgotten about it!
Thank you so much! Yes I absolutely LOVED c’mon c’mon and aftersun. I’ve talked about both in a lot of my videos so I didn’t include them in this one but I def need to do a part 2!!
for a part 2 i would recommend: when you finish saving the world, it's jesse eisenberg's directorial debut and it's got julianne moore and finn wolfhard in it & i think it's fantastic. i would be curious to see where you rank it!
Omg i still gotta watch it!
i needed this!!
Lifelong horror fan here and I’d add Hereditary to the Elite slot for my rankings. Easily raised the bar for the genre. Toni Collette gave a legendary performance.
Toni Collette was incredible and SO TERRIFYING
its ight
Yes please do a part 2!
Love your vibes cinemoniiiiiii
Love youuuuuu
🌟 I have the biggest crush on your fashion sense. ❤️ Love how you balance cutesy and smart without either being too risqué or too boring. Your curls definitely adds to your ease in pulling these off 😎
Thank you so much!💕
Love your categories.
My main disagreement would definitely be on "The Lighthouse". A24 released "The Witch" 3 years earlier and when I finally got around to it, my respect for the filmmaking and for Anya Taylor-Joy's performance couldn't change the fact that the story didn't 100% grab me. In sharp contrast I was grabbed from frame one by "The Lighthouse" ... the moody atmosphere is balanced so well by how trouser-shittingly silly the two characters are. I wanted to know what the hell their deal was, and even though the ending was ambiguous, it felt right and it left me satisfied.
On the whole your rankings made sense. "Moonlight", "The Florida Project" and "Lady Bird" will always be god tier to me.
I defitnitely understand the lighthouse love! It just wasn’t my cup of tea i guess
I loved every A24 movie i saw: EEOAA, The Whale, mid90's, Hereditary, The Disaster artist and The Witch.
Love your videos! You should do a full review of The Whale!
Hmm i just didn’t feel very attached to it, it was a bit forgettable so idk if I would want to talk about it for a whole video hehe
I was hoping you would talk about
in fabric, its so weird, funny and unnerving, I love it.
Besides Uncut Gems, which I love because I like feeling anxious watching a movie, I agree with every other position.
Oh but even though I love Lady Bird and also consider it elite, Eighth Grade is the one which should be called THE coming-of-age movie. Awesome ranking :)
ow noooo uncut geeems 😔😔😔😔 but thanks bc you talking about a24, appreciate it, nice vid :)
For those who LOVE to be deeply disturbed by scary art/movies - hereditary is such an incredible movie. I still think about it all these years after I saw it in theaters. I didn't realize moonlight was a24! That movie lives in my brain rent free for sure! It should go down in history as one of the best movies of all time imo. Midsommer is also a good movie! You do really need enjoy being deeply disturbed by something that is TRYING HARD to scare you. I don't personally think it's as great as hereditary but, you will deff like it if you enjoy scary movies.
On the same page with a lot of these apart from Uncut Gems and Lighthouse, two of my favourites!! I fully understand why someone would not be able to get into them though
I understand why people love those 2 for sure!
Part 2 is up now! Includes movies like EEAAO, Aftersun, Under the silver lake, Ex-machina, etc… ruclips.net/video/qzApMPvfWqw/видео.html 📼
The A24 films I’ve seen usually goes into one of two categories, either “wow that was such a masterpiece” or “interesting but too weird and too slow” and it all usually depends on if the ambiguous ending hits or not… anyways here’s my top 10:
10. The Witch
9. Minari (I expected to be a bit bored watching this tbh, but it was truly beautiful and it was so emotionally gripping)
8. Hereditary
7. Moonlight
6. Eighth Grade
5. Ex Machina
4. Aftersun (Watched it last week and the more I think about it the sadder it makes me, which is a good thing I guess?)
3. The Lighthouse (I knew it’d be weird, but I didn’t expect it to be so weirdly hilarious. Loved it)
2. A Ghost Story (I barely ever cry watching movies, but this one had me bawling in existential dread)
1. Everything Everywhere All At Once (An all timer for me, I truly felt like I was watching cinema history when I first saw it in the theatre)
Honourable mentions: Lady Bird, Midsommar, The Lobster, It Comes At Night and Climax
Great list!! Aftersun is def one of my favorite movies lately and veryyy high in my a24 rankings
Great video! I would love to see a NEON tier ranking in the future!
Ooo that would be fun!
This was a great list. I like how much your taste in movies lines up with mine. That way, if you recommend a film, I can be pretty certain that I’m going to enjoy it.
Glad you enjoyed it 🫶🏼
your elite list is sooo elite actually - taste!
I loved the video! ♡♡♡
Thank youu💗
Hey I am half way into watching your video and I am enjoying it HOWEVER I have a bit of advice for your next ranking video. I suggest putting the film title in text maybe before you show the clips or something bc ALOT or the times I missed you saying the title or didn't hear it at all. Just a lil advice
Such a great tier list, still a lot more to go and i cant wait to see your opinion!
Definitely need to do a part 2 since i couldn’t fit a lof of them into this one!
i LOOOVE A24 so this video is amazing, definitely gave me some new recommendations
I don’t agree with a few of your rankings but it is a very respectable list. Hopefully part 2 will include Mid 90’s and Ex Machina!
Every Yorgos film I see never clicks with me the first time, or I just think it was 'fine', then they don't leave my mind, I watch them a second time, and I become obsessed. The Lobster was definitely one of them. The Favorite I liked but didn't love, and now I think it's a masterpiece. I love Sacred Deer more with each viewing. Dogtooth was always my favorite when I first saw it before knowing anything about him. Now I get his wavelength and can't wait for whatever he does next.
American Honey is my absolute favorite a24 film
Uncut Gems is one of the greatest movies ever made
I love both 20th Century Women and The Bling Ring.
Cinemonika uploads a video: no one

A REAL ONE🫶🏼🥹
I feel like the whole point of uncut gems was to make you feel the anxiousness of being in NYC. To which, it did a fantastic job of!
I honestly can't believe ive been watching A24 since they very first started with movies like Spring Breakers & Under The Skin & Tusk , i never knew it blew up so big as a film company till just recently a few years ago when Ari Aster & Robert Eggers started becoming famous & known to everyone by name & also I randomly saw both of their first films (The Witch & Hereditary) also when they first came out before they became known to most ppl !!!! Guess that makes me a OG fan , now I feel special
Btw , u still did a A-D tier list u just named them different 😂
& The first thing i actually thought when i saw u was how much u look like Sofia Coppola !!!! Don't know ur race but u look just like her when she was a kid!!!!
Amazing content ❤😊
What? I've only ever heard of people liking The Lighthouse. Genuinely have not read a single negative comment apart from this video. Also I definitely don't have the same tier list but that's cool, we all have our own tastes. Personally I love something absurdist and insane with striking cinematography so something like Moonlight, Ladybug, and Minari, whilst being very good movies in their own right, are a little too drama and slice-of-life focused. Would love to see a part 2 with Pearl, X, Everything Everywhere (obviously), and maybe After Yang because I think you might enjoy it.
I totally agree about Uncut Gems, ANXIOUS AF
I forgot how to breath while watching it
Marcel the shell with shoes on is number 1. The end.
I like your categories😂
If uncut gems made you anxious then they succeeded. Cause that was the point of the movie, to put yourself in the shoes of Adam Sandler's character and force you to see every bad decision he makes. Good time also by the Safdie's (and also by A24) it's a perfect example of this, eventually you realise is their signature lol
Yea definitely succeeded! I just can’t take it lol 😭
i agree with your list, but for me midsommar and hereditary are elite too. i don't love love the story of either, although i do like them, but the cinematography and powerful acting is what puts them up in elite for me. toni collette and florence pugh both deserved emmys / oscars / golden globes for their performances like WOW.
Toni Collette definitely deserved more awards recognition! She was incredible
I respect your opinion but lighthouse and uncut gems are masterpieces
Muy útil la lista. Gracias!
Why put Uncut Gems in 'why?' just because it made you anxious? Or do you also think it's just not a good movie? I think even though it's a nailbiter, it's top class. Also they weren't making fun of 'The Room' it was more of a hommage and retelling of a ridiculous but amazing true story, that's based on the book the disaster artist, it's just a story that deserves to be told again on the big screen.
You ask alot 'why' movies are made, but doesn't seem you first research why it actually has been made before posting a video on the internet about it..
The Whale that high up meanwhile The Lighthouse is on the bottom... is crazy
The Whale is a great movie but the Lighthouse should definitely be up there too
@@davidlynskey4143 The Whale was bad. Only good thing about that dumpster fire of a film was Brendan Fraser's performance
would love to see under the silver lake in part 2!
Green Knight is so underrated. It's a fantastic film. Glad to see it on your list!
Also, A ghost story. What a gem that film is.
Green Knight hits a weird spot in my psyche its very Interesting
Robert Eggers made The Lighthouse because it’s the greatest movie ever! An absolute masterclass in every aspect of filmmaking. I do however understand how some people don’t like it.
I do agree with how masterful it is, he’s an incredible filmmaker
Wow, That was fun even if I disagree with some of those. I'm not gonna comment too deeply on the subject because I really love A24 movies a lot. They always make my favorite movie by far and when I don't like/enjoy the movie there usually at least is some fun discussion to be had with them so if I comment on everything you'll end up with a 6000 words or more thesis on their movies. I'll only point out my biggest opinion difference is with midsommar, it just is one of my personnal favorite. The cinematography was amazing, the whole concept of creating a horor movie set in brigth daylight was so creative and a nice change of pace from all the darkness we usually get from that genre of movie it was unsettling in the most delightful wayand very eerie I loved every second of it and what to say about Pugh's performance it was simply magnificent. Well sorry for the rant I was just voicing my opinion, anyway great topic to talk about and just all around great video
I agree with everything you said about midsommar! I just find it a bit too disturbing for me but as far as cinematography, storytelling, performances it was incredible
I still to this day do not get the hype behind ladybird
Whatttt it's such a great movie!!!!!
@@vanditaharmalkar7889 legit nothing happens in it :( I want to enjoy it but I just don't
maybe its just not ur kind of movie and thats alright
I get it it’s not for everyone but it’s one of my faves 💜
i think it's because the story is a coming of age story but in a more melancholy way. that's okay not everyone will enjoy it but i liked it
My own version of your A24 tier list, with a couple of extra films added in:
ELITE - Moonlight, Hereditary, Uncut Gems, Aftersun, Lady Bird, First Reformed
WOW THAT WAS GREAT - The Last Black Man in San Francisco, EEAAO, Eighth Grade, Midsommar, The Lighthouse, Waves
OH OK - The Whale, The Green Knight, Pearl, It Comes at Night, The Disaster Artist, Minari, The Lobster
THAT WAS A LOT - X, The Humans, The Florida Project, 20th Century Women
WHY? - The Bling Ring
You should watch First Cow, clearly the best A24 movie. So peaceful and calm😢
I highly recommend Good Time if you want to have a stressful time
Uncut Gems is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a long time. Specifically the editing and the script. It is like Howard Hawks dialogue or Robert Altman x 100. Which fits the aesthetic of east coast in general who naturally overtalk each other all the time. It fits so well with Howard Ratners character who is constantly dealing with 5-8 problems everyday and is stressed out. I’m probably crazy but the film is like therapy to me 😂.
if u loved it and want more NY definitely check out Good Time or their earlier film, Heaven Knows What (free on RUclips)
@@wisco9er536 Seen both and they are all great love the Safdie Brothers
I really love Short Term 12
Hey, not an A24 movie but since you like weird films that are not very typical I suggest you to check out Burning (2018) its a korean film. One of my favorite films of all time and a film that stays with you months after you've finished watching it.
Burning is one of my favorites too 💗
I agree with Uncut Gems, i liked Adam Sandler's performance but that was about it. I too had to keep pausing the film but it wasnt an anxious thing it was a distraction thing and if i can get distracted whilst watching a film i always put it in meh. It didnt really grab me even in the bits it was supposed to but each to thier own
I mostly agree with the list but I particularly have different views on 'The Lobster'(it ranks lower on my list) and Uncut Gems(on my list it'd have ranked 'Elite').
NAHH i still cry about the whale and it made me devastated in every possible way anything ever could.
Ngl i definitely cried at the end
you have the best intro ever
Thank you💗🫶🏼
The "oh okay" tier is 3 of my favorite movies of all time lol
What horror movies do you find elite if not Hereditary and The Lighthouse Monika?
Jordan Peele’s Nope is a recent one I find is absolutely brilliant
@@cinemoni Ayy, that's good, I love that film and I think why it works is because it is so original and unique ❤
I HATED Lady Bird, and I'm usually not that difficult to please, so I really don't understand - and I'm really curious, if anyone has time - as to why so many people loved it
So many people loved it so i think it would be better to ask, why did you hate it? 😄
A24 and Netflix movies are dominating the Oscars,time has really changed..
hereditary an midsommar beling lower than elite is insane to me
I respect your opinion but i really like Hereditary, Midsommar,The Whale and uncut gems i think they are elite.
I don't like Saint Maud i think it was okay
Wbu do you like it?
It's a crime that c'mon c'mon and after un aren't on this list! but anyways, i loved your ranking!
I included them but had to cut the video down and since i’ve talked about those 2 movies a lot in the last year i took them out :(((
midsommar totally f*cked me up
Usually any horror film by A24, minus a few like It Comes at Night, would be top tier for me. Hereditary especially, it’s one of the best horror films I’ve ever seen. I’ve never experienced a level of uncomfortable dread and sadness from any other horror film like I did with Hereditary. The cinematography is gorgeous, the script is creative and disturbing, the acting is Oscar worthy.. You can’t ask for a better horror film, or just a good film in general.
aww i was waiting for waves
I love your makeup 😄🌼✨
Thank youu💗💗
I haven’t seen a lot of A24 movies. I would put Minari in “Wow that was great” and Lady Bird in “Oh okay”.
We need more Frances Ha representation!
I never see anyone mentioning the a24 movie Waves, like did no one watch it or does no one like it because its my favourite a24 film basically
Eighth grade in elite whilst hereditary was “ok” and uncut gems ranked the lowest 💀💀💀
I really liked ur list except with the horror movies haha , but I understand it’s just isn’t ur thing . Anyway , great video
The beginning of your video is so cute
Thanks!💗🥹
What did you think of After Yang ?
LOVED IT one of my favorites from last year
I wonder where The Iron Claw would fall into the ranking system.
Good time and uncut gems are great
I don't know why but I just Agree with the lobster position. But I guess is that I'm not in to Euphoria mindset.
Nahhh, Midsommar and Hereditary are elite
