The Big Short 2015
Love McKay and hate to say it, but I gotta go with the grouchy leftist takedown:

Ad Astra 2019
I think I might like this movie if I had Daddy issues, or a hard-on for space, but alas, I have neither, so I just couldn't get into this one.
Don't get me wrong the performances are strong and the visuals are beautiful, but the worldbuilding of this imagined future was all over the place and the plot just wasn't gripping enough.
I will say the soundtrack was so soothing it literally lulled me to sleep in a full theater.
