The best film of 2025!

2025 has been a great year for films, but it has never really struck gold yet up until now. "Sinners" being THIS good was not on my bingo card, and I bet no one saw this coming. Thankfully, Coogler delivered one hell of a film. "Sinners" follows twin brothers Smoke and Stack, who return to their Mississippi hometown to start again, only to discover that an even greater evil is waiting to welcome them back.

First off, I must discuss the story. I loved what Coogler created here! Exploring the blues and injecting it with a dose of horror was one cool mix! It was beautifully explored and extremely well-told in my opinion. It's not just a regular horror film about vampires. It's more than that, and this is what elevated the film for me. The way it mixes action, horror, and music blew me away! Coogler continues to prove why he's one of the best directors of our generation, and this is, in my opinion, his magnum opus. On that thought, I would recommend everyone to watch this in IMAX. Watching it in this format is THE only way to truly experience the film. One scene in particular that explores the history of the blues blew me away. It was surreal and sent goosebumps down my spine!

Last but not least, I have to praise the cinematography here. Autumn Durald Arkapaw did a phenomenal job here! This is one of the best-looking films of the year, and it's insane how beautiful it is! Moreover, I must praise Ludwig Göransson, who composed one and delivered one hell of a score. It's transcendental and simply beautiful! Lastly, I must praise the performances here. Michael B. Jordan continues to prove that he's a more than capable actor in the industry, and I wish he gets offered more roles like these. Having to play twins with 2 different personalities is not an easy task, and B. Jordan did it in the best possible way. Praise should also go towards Hailee Steinfeld, Miles Canton, and Jack O' Connell for also delivering some phenomenal performances. Overall, "Sinners" is not only one of the best films I've watched but also the best film of 2025, and it'll be hard to top this one!
