15 Best Movies Of 2020 (So Far)

Intense, pulpy, and charged with sharp social commentary, this colourful slice of neo-noir from China is one of 2020's hidden cinematic gems.

A tight and twisty mystery centring around a small time tough who (maybe intentionally, maybe accidentally) killed a cop, this tense thriller opens on a windswept rendezvous with an enigmatic woman who isn't who she seems. Isn't that always the way with these stories?

Suffused with the same satirical wit which runs through many of this list's offerings, this neon-drenched film noir is a testament to the flexibility of the genre as it updates the setting and characters to reflect very modern concerns without losing any of the edge and intensity expected from hard-boiled thrillers.
