    2. Inside Out
    3. Kingsman: The Secret Service
    4. MI: Rogue Nation

    Does Mommy count? Figured it was 2014.

    Ex-Machina, It Follows, Montage of Heck, and Mommy are really the only ones I've enjoyed.

    It's one of those weird ones. Had a fall run at the festivals but it didn't hit actual theaters until late January. I also had it on my 2014 list, but I'll keep it here too.
    last four:
    black widow - 8
    zero dark thirty - 9
    the muse - 7
    freaky - 7
