Best Movies of 2023

The story of the year is Barbenheimer. On July 21, Warner Bros. released Greta Gerwig's Barbie (2023). It was on the same day that Universal released Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer (2023). It was meant to be the most extreme form of counter-programming. In terms of themes, styles, genres and target demographics, the two films could not be more opposite. Yet, an online phenomenon sprung up that combined the two films and even compelled audiences to see both either on the same day or same weekend. The marketing push was intense and the results were incredible. Instead of hurting each other, the two films ended up helping each other. Barbie opened with $162 million, which was the biggest start to a film directed by a woman. It's totaled $636 million, which is the highest domestic take of the year. It since went to gross over $1.44 billion worldwide, making it the biggest box office for a film directed solely by a woman and putting it in the Top 15 of all-time. Oppenheimer
