10 Best Films Of 2016 Picked by HOF Crew

A year ago, High On Films was just an idea waiting to be conceived. I feel so ecstatic now as we have turned our varied film taste and opinions into one long world of wordplay. We have written, argued and talked about every single fable that is thrown towards us in the name of cinematic artistry. Despite the times when we struggled to go through the films that were deliberately a slog, we have managed to stand again on grounds of films that were magical in every sense of the word. After sitting down to pick our favorites, it was difficult to bring the number of best films down to a bare minimum. But we battled and narrowed down our collaborative favorites in a list that follows.

Fire At Sea [2016]: An Elegiac Reflection on the Unimaginable Agony

Fire At Sea [2016]: An Elegiac Reflection on the Unimaginable Agony

In “Fire At Sea” aka “Fuoco Ammare”, Gianfranco Rosi uses the language of cinema to reinforce a tranquil as well as a turbulent reality.

This documentary/docu-drama contemplates a desensitized tragedy through an unforgettable, humanistic perspective.

The 25 Best Films of 2015

We’re halfway through 2015, with July almost arriving, but I waited to finish watching all the possible good films of 2015 before I come up with a list that I totally find justified for my own taste. Here is a comprehensive list of the Best Films from 2015. Do not go bonking if you don’t see Son of Saul , The Revenant on the list or Spotlight in the Top 10. I loved both the films, and they ‘may’ deserve all the critical praise and love from the audiences but I didn’t find them better than other films that topped them.
