Reel Dialogue's Best of 2025
The ups and downs of the year
The cinematic landscape of 2025 has been a testament to Hollywood's resilience. Following the aftermath of last year’s strikes, studios faced a noticeable hobbling in producing content, leading to some challenging seasons. Yet, amidst this new reality, several films have truly stood out—both on the big screen and at home. The Reel Dialogue team is eager to share our highlights, and we want to hear yours! Reach out to us to share your personal favourites of the past year.
The Changing Tides of Hollywood
As we eagerly await the full repercussions of the Netflix/Warner Bros. merger, the industry's release strategy is clearly in flux. This year confirmed that the best cinematic experiences are no longer confined to one platform: Some of our top-rated films were found on streaming services. The cinema, however, still provided many excellent and memorable offerings.
