Ranking December 2015's Movies From Worst To Best

By Jack Pooley /

10. The Lady In The Van

RottenTomatoes Score: 92% (7.2) Box Office: Again proving the financial viability of movies aimed at the grandparent crowd, the $6 million drama has stormed to an impressive $13.7 million so far, and is still yet to open wide in the U.S. Verdict: While it's surprisingly unfocused and isn't exactly an exhilarating watch, Maggie Smith has been earning rave reviews for her work here, finding a role perfectly suited to her signature cantankerousness. On one hand it might all seem like something Smith could sleepwalk through, but the unexpectedly surreal flourishes and affecting narrative keep it from feeling too familiar. In short, if you're a Maggie Smith fan, you can't miss it really.
