2015 featured a stellar line-up of movies that had something for everyone; Inside Out, Mad Max: Fury Road, Ex Machina, Amy and Steve Jobs, among many, many others. It was a year of talented writers, directors and actors doing strong work, and people will be spoiled for choice when picking their favourite films of the year (sure, it was also a year that brought us Fifty Shades Of Grey, Mortdecai and Jupiter Ascending, but you cant win them all). Like every other year since time (well, cinema) began though, it also brought a range of good movies that will be forgotten about as time marches on. It doesnt matter if theyre low-budget indies or shiny blockbusters; once theyve been experienced, nobody will feel the need to rush back to them again. There's a number of reasons for this, ranging from being them solid but forgettable fare to being so emotionally draining that one watch is all that people can handle. Selected here is a group of really good films that for a whole variety of reasons will be left to gather dust in the file marked 2015.
10. Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation
Tom Cruise is back doing what he does best putting himself in mortal danger for other peoples amusement. Rogue Nation offered superior summer entertainment with a twisty plotline, great stunts and inventive action scenes. The movie also introduced a great new female character into the franchise, and the opening airplane stunt with Cruise just might be one of the most insane things ever captured on camera. Why Youll Never Watch It Again: A major part of the fun of Rogue Nation is watching how scenes will pan out in unexpected ways, and once you know how they do it a large part of the charm is gone. The film is designed as a breathless ride where the audience doesnt have time to think much, and a second viewing would doubtlessly have them questioning the logic of certain things and ruining it for themselves.
