It’s a little frightening that the start of the millennium was now 25 years ago. Time is an illusion, as the saying goes. However, all these years later, many movies released in the year 2000 have left a significant impression on the world of cinema, and I’m here to celebrate the best movie of that era Even if I must admit, I saw these flicks years after their initial release. I turned 5 years old in 2000, and was watching little beyond Disney VHS tapes at that time.
My round-up of the best movies from 2000 includes one of Christopher Nolan’s first features, a comic book movie that set the stage for the juggernaut the superhero genre would become in the decades to come, and a dystopian battle that makes “The Hunger Games” look like a friendly competition in comparison. These movies may now be old enough to buy a beer or rent a car, but they remain must-watches even in 2025.
