This week on the InSession Film Podcast, we discussed our Top 30 Movies of the 21st Century! With hundreds and hundreds of great films over the last 25 years, narrowing this down to a Top 30 was extremely challenging. But also a ton of fun. We had a great time, not just formulating our lists, but discussing the movies that made the cut and why they landed at the spots they did. There were some surprises, some inevitable crossovers and some picks that long time listeners would come to expect given our deep love for these movies. With that said, what would be your Top 30?
Here are the movies that made our list. Be sure to listen to the show as we discuss these films and why they made our list.
