Best 2020 Movies

What makes a great Movie?

There are many theories, of course. Some say that a film is great if it makes a lot of money. Others say that greatness is measured by the number of Oscars a film has won.

Still others argue that a movie is great if it has stood the test of time or if it has changed the way other movies are made. But I think all of these definitions are only partly right.

I believe that a film can be considered great only if people like to watch it, over and over again. After all, making movies is an art form and the purpose of art is to please the senses and the mind.

Thus, a movie should be evaluated based on its entertainment value — the degree to which it engages its audience and generates excitement.
