2. Everything Everywhere All At Once

Multiverse movies are all the rage right now, and while the MCU has undeniably cornered the market on mega-budget multiversal stories, Everything Everywhere All At Once proves the greater creativity possible on a smaller budget without the restrictions of a cinematic universe.

Somehow produced for a mere $25 million, this dizzying absurdist sci-fi comedy is one of the most inventive and unexpectedly heartfelt Hollywood creations of the last few years.

Led by an Oscar-worthy Michelle Yeoh as the embattled, universe-hopping protagonist Evelyn, this is a monumental achievement purely for managing to weave a multiverse story that's completely cuckoo bananas and yet makes total sense with a full-hearted emotional core.

You've never seen a movie like this before, and hopefully it'll resonate enough with the mainstream to sustain momentum into 2023's awards season.
