The year 2021 has come to an end. This year did feel like a return to a standard release calendar, at least compared to 2020.
Amid different variants of coronavirus that hit the world the whole year, movies still had a role to play in helping people get through this difficult year. These are the best movies of 2021:
Spider Man
Spider-Man: No Way Home was released on 17th December has earned 180 billion worth of business done so far.
Dune
Starring Timothée Chalamet as reluctant “messiah” Paul Atreides, Dune turned Herbert’s carefully-crafted world into a surprisingly coherent story about colonialism, predestination, and…spice. The film is a technical masterpiece — everything felt cinematic.
Black Widow
The Marvel Cinematic Universe has featured some great cars over the years, from Tony Stark’s Audi R8 in Iron Man to the Lexus LC 500 in Black Panther. In Black Widow, the 2022 BMW X3 M40i stars in an action-packed car chase set in Budapest. With Scarlett Johansson’s Natasha Romanoff and her bickering sister Yelena played by Florence Pugh behind the wheel, the X3 is initially chased by a female assassin on a bike before Taskmaster joins the action in a massive tank smashing through cars that get in the way.
Fast & Furious 9
The Fast & Furious franchise is famous for its gravity-defying stunts, but Fast & Furious 9 is the most far-fetched film in the franchise yet. Centering on a family feud between Vin Diesel’s Dominic Toretto and his brother Jakob played by John Cena (who has conveniently never been mentioned up to this point), Fast & Furious 9’s action sequences are more absurd and ridiculous than ever before.
No Time to Die
Daniel Craig’s final Bond film, the long-delayed No Time to Die features more Aston Martins than any other Bond film, from a modern DBS Superleggera to a classic V8 Vantage from The Living Daylights. A prototype of the Valhalla hypercar also makes a cameo appearance, but it’s the iconic DB5 that steals the show.
