As I did last year, this is going to be two lists. The first is the Best Films of 2014 (So Far), which is a pretty small list as I've only seen 10 movies that were first released this year. This is the Top Five, with links to where I've written and/or talked about them.
1. The Grand Budapest Hotel (Wes Anderson)
2. The Midnight After (Fruit Chan)
3. Journey to the West (Tsai Ming-liang)
4. Boyhood (Richard Linklater)
5. Pompeii (Paul WS Anderson)
The other list is the Best 2013 Films of 2014 (So Far), which includes all those movies that were first released last year but only made it to a general audience venue in the US in the past six months. These are all officially part of the 2013 section of my year-by-year rankings, but you may find them on the 2014 lists of the temporally confused or negligent.
1. La Ășltima pelĂcula (Raya Martin & Mark Peranson)
2. The Missing Picture (Rithy Panh)
3. Only Lovers Left Alive (Jim Jarmusch)
4. Blind Detective (Johnnie To)
5. The Immigrant (James Gray)
6. Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons (Stephen Chow)
7. Stray Dogs (Tsai Ming-liang)
8. The Wind Rises (Hayao Miyazaki)
9. A Spell to Ward Off the Darkness (Ben Rivers & Ben Russell)
10. Under the Skin (Jonathan Glazer)
