The post 10 Best Movies of 2018 So Far appeared first on Entertainment For Us.
]]>Games Night
Competitive couples go head-to-head in a game which gets a little to real too quickly. Funnier than expected.
Avengers: Infinity War
It brings together just about every superhero we’ve seen in the franchise and was the Marvel event of the year. The visual effects and CGI are off the charts and we were on the edge of our seats from start to finish.
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
The emotional, brutally honest drama was nominated for seven Oscars and is currently rated an impressive 92% on Rotten Tomatoes.
A Quiet Place
It is a new shade of horror, taking the action outside of the haunted house and into a post-apocalyptic world. It makes silence sound terrifying.
Hereditary
It was dubbed as this generation’s exorcist and for good reason. Throw away the horror cliche handbook and expect a gripping and thrilling psychological horror show.
Lady Bird
A heartfelt and uplifting coming of age movie with a unique flavour.
The Death of Stalin
A satirical comedy of an entirely different species to Deadpool 2, but really quite brilliant.
Annihilation
A surreal and unsettling sci-fi horror which intrigues you both visually and psychologically.
Deadpool 2
The most ridiculous and hilarious movie of the year so far.
Black Panther
Black Panther took the box office by storm and is considered by many, including Rolling Stone, to be the best movie of the year so far.

]]>Lady Bird
This year’s Lady Bird tells the story of an edgy teen trying to find her way through adolescence while retaining her unapologetic individuality.
Perks of Being a Wallflower
Based on the best-selling novel by Stephen Chbosky, Perks of Being a Wallflower is a beautifully believable and heartwarming movie about a group of misfits fighting their individual battles, but coming together as a group in the US in the 90’s.
Almost Famous
William Miller runs off with a rock ‘n’ roll band when he’s 15 to pursue his passion for music journalism. The best bit about his journey? He actually calls in to check on his mom and manages to live the rock ‘n’ roll dream without giving into the temptation of alcohol or drugs.
16 Candles
Molly Ringwald stars as a love-stricken teenager in this John Hughes classic.
Adventureland
One final summer and one impossible-to-get mysterious girl. It’s everything a classic coming-of-age movie needs.
Sing Street
Cosmo accidentally starts a band to get the attention of Raphina, the aloof model that stands outside his school waiting for someone to notice her. The soundtrack alone makes this movie worth the watch.
Moonlight
Last year’s Oscar winner and a powerful tale of adolescence and adulthood.
Dazed and Confused
We couldn’t not put it on here. It’s one of the most quotable movies of all time and it’s full of high school nostalgia.
Ferris Buller’s Day Off
The feel good movie of the last century.
Love, Simon
This year’s most recent coming-of-age story, which for the first time in mainstream media revolves around the life of a gay teen. Emotional, uplifting and one of the best movies of the year so far.

]]>The movie is set in Sacremento, California in 2002 and follows the journey of Christine McPherson (Saoirise Ronan), who has given herself the name “Lady Bird.” She’s a pink-haired rebel, and her wicked wisecracks add an enjoyable touch of humor to the movie.
Arguably one of the most special aspects of the movie is the sincerity of its treatment of the relationship dynamic between Lady Bird and her mom (Laurie Metcalf). Interactions are tense and reflect the emotional rollercoaster of adolescence but are also touching and dazzlingly sensitive.
The movie also sensitively explores the subject of class and appearances. Lady Bird captures the heart of the teenage rebel, who is apologetically herself but is still fighting that last piece of adolescent insecurity in her struggle with her own self-awareness.
The performances are beautiful and capture the characters with a unique understanding. The cinematography is stunning at times and the peculiar details of the movie add to its exquisite charm. Overall, the movie is a lovely exploration of human dynamics and relationships, which connects with Lady Bird’s superb character to create a true coming of age masterpiece.
