Letterboxd — Your life in film

Introducing an “all-time stats” feature for Pro and Patron members.

In which we go hunting for the most divisive films on Letterboxd, and find cool cats, Justin Bieber, Tommy Wiseau and the High School Musical franchise.

Steve McQueen’s 12 Years a Slave is the Letterboxd community’s highest-rated film; Tarantino’s Django Unchained is the most popular.

Following some lively debate about what qualifies as a horror film, we present the 50 highest-rated horror films of the decade, as voted by the Letterboxd community.

We dive into the Letterboxd stats to reveal the highest-rated, most obsessively rewatched films and directors.

Two Filipino indies lead the Letterboxd Top 25 at the 2021 halfway point, as the coronavirus pandemic continues to shake—and reshape—the film industry. Jack Moulton and Gemma Gracewood take stock.

The best films and directors of the decade, according to the Letterboxd community. As the 2010s stumble to a close, we release a collection of lists celebrating the best films and directors of the decade, and reveal your most underrated and overlooked gems.

Today Parasite overtook The Godfather as the highest-rated narrative feature film on Letterboxd. We examine what this means, and bring you the story of the birth of the #BongHive.

Letterboxd presents our community’s 25 top rated horror films of all time.

In the ten days since its release, Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight Rises has—unsurprisingly—occupied the top position in our Popular Films list, accompanied by its two predecessors in the second and third spots. With Marc Webb’s The Amazing Spider-Man rounding out the top four, this became the week the superheroes took over the asylum.

It’s that time of year, folks. We give thanks to you for your love of film and your support of Letterboxd by discounting our Pro and Patron memberships.

We’re proud to announce our fifth-annual Letterboxd Year in Review. Our hearty congratulations to Barry Jenkins and Moonlight on taking the top spot for 2016. After the Mad Max: Fury Road juggernaut of 2015, we began 2016 with no idea what film might win people’s hearts, and as much as we made no secret of our Mad Max obsession, we’re taking immense pleasure in seeing a low-budget movie with a diverse cast of mainly unknown actors and no franchise history…

Richard Linklater’s Boyhood tops our Year in Review, while Wes Anderson’s The Grand Budapest Hotel is the most popular film. 

축하해요 to Bong Joon-ho and the Parasite crew on taking the highest-rated spot in our 2019 Year in Review. Congrats also to Anthony and Joe Russo and the Marvel team on Avengers: Endgame finishing the year as the Most Popular film.

The keeper of the Official Letterboxd Top 250 on the day that Parasite “dethroned” The Godfather, the curious case of A Dog’s Will, and several Dutch filmmakers worthy of discovery.

Once again, our community has chosen a brilliant selection of films as the year’s best. Your ratings don’t lie, and for the data nerds at Letterboxd HQ, it’s our favorite time: when math and art combine to celebrate cinematic excellence. Thank you for another sublime year. Wakanda forever!

We’ve once again punched our calculator buttons and lovingly computed for you the fourth-annual Letterboxd Year in Review. It’s a representation of our community’s combined ratings as at January 1, 2016, and we’ve spent the past couple of weeks compiling and fine-tuning the review based on this data. Some rankings may have changed over the intervening period, but we do not adjust the review retrospectively (at the time we published the 2014 review, the highest-rated film had already been replaced…

We’ve compiled our ten highest-rated narrative films for the year so far to mark the midway point for 2017. With some big hitters still to come later this year, which films do you think will last the distance?

At the midway point for 2019 we can reveal the ten highest-rated narrative films for the year so far, as collectively decided by you.

Never mind the Best. What is the Most Rewatched Picture among the eight Oscar nominees for best film?
