Best and worst movies of 2025 from Beyond The Trailer and WatchMojo

Today's year-end retrospective doubles as the final Sunday entertainment feature of 2025. I begin with Beyond The Trailer's Top Ten Best Movies of 2025.

Top Ten Best Movies of 2025 today! Beyond The Trailer host Grace Randolph gives a review of her Top Ten Movies of 2025 including a breakdown as to why each one made the cut! Find out where Marty Supreme, Wicked for Good, Weapons, KPop Demon Hunters, Sinners, Superman, Materialists, One Battle After Another, F1 The Movie and The Phoenician Scheme land on this list!
I took a snapshot of Grace's top ten.


 For comparison, I'm embedding WatchMojo's Top 20 Best Movies of 2025.

From blockbuster franchises to intimate dramas, cinema delivered unforgettable experiences in 2025! Join us as we count down the films that reminded us why we love movies in the first place. Our list includes Paul Thomas Anderson's thrilling "One Battle After Another," Ryan Coogler's genre-blending "Sinners," Guillermo del Toro's "Frankenstein," and many more! Which film topped your list this year? From Marvel's comeback with "Thunderbolts*" to the emotional "Hamnet" with Paul Mescal, from the horror masterpiece "Weapons" to the animated sensation "KPop Demon Hunters," 2025 offered something for every movie lover. Did we miss any of your favorites? Let us know in the comments below!

WatchMojo also compiled a worst movies list. Follow over the jump for it.

As promised above, here are WatchMojo's Top 20 Worst Movies of 2025.

Cinema may have had a good run, but these films nearly killed it! Join us as we count down the most disappointing, unwatchable, and downright terrible movies of 2025. From big-budget superhero disasters to streaming catastrophes, these films left audiences wondering why they even bothered. Our countdown includes "War of the Worlds," "Snow White," "Star Trek: Section 31," "The Electric State," "A Minecraft Movie," and more! With everything from CGI disasters to vanity projects that wasted talented casts, these films proved that even with massive budgets, you can still produce absolute garbage. What was the worst movie you watched in 2025? Let us know in the comments below!
I also recorded WatchMojo's bottom twenty as I watched.

1. War of the Worlds
2. Snow White
3. Star Trek: Section 31
4. Hurry Up Tomorrow
5. Tyler Perry's Duplicity
6. The Electric State
7. Alarum
8. Love Hurts
9. The Old Guard 2
10. Him
11. A Minecraft Movie
12. I Know What You Did Last Summer
13. The Alto Knights
14. Fear Street: Prom Queen
15. Smurfs
16. Bride Hard
17. In the Lost Lands
18. Flight Risk
19. The Woman in the Yard
20. Captain America: Brave New World

Being the number one movie in North American box office and number four worldwide didn't save A Minecraft Movie from being listed here. I guess it deserved its snub at the Critics Choice Super Awards: "The critics must have disliked it for being dumb fun, but it's the kind of movie the People's Choice Awards would love and the Saturn Awards would nominate just to stick it to the experts." There hasn't been a People's Choice Awards since February 2024, so that part of the prediction will probably never come true (or false). We'll see if it earns a Saturn Awards nomination.

The video mentioned the Razzie Awards, which reminds me why I made this list. Last year's worst movies of 2024 from WatchMojo did a very good job of predicting the Razzies nominees, so I'm keeping the list to compare it with next year's nominees. Those should be entertaining.

That completes the final Sunday entertainment feature of 2025. Stay tuned for more year-end retrospectives through New Year's Eve.
