2026 is shaping up to be one of the strongest movie years since pre-pandemic. Between a sci-fi instant classic, a horror sequel that delivered, an A24 record-breaker, and a summer blockbuster slate that looks absurd, there's no shortage of films to track.

Below is our tier list split into two sections: The Collection (movies released Jan–June, ranked by quality) and The To-Do (upcoming Jun–Dec releases, ranked by anticipation).
