Ranking The 2026 Best Picture Oscar Nominees

5/2/26

I love movies and I love awards season and I love lists, so naturally I had to make a ranking of all the films nominated for Best Picture at the 2026 Oscars. I wouldn't call myself a cinephile, more like a movie enthusiast at best, so obviously take everything with a grain of salt and preferably watch all of these movies to make your own opinion; at the end of the day, even though I didn't love or even like all of them, I would still argue that they're all good and should be appreciated for all the talent and artistry that went into creating them. Also, I am not always very objective in my critiques and spend a lot time yapping how I felt and how a movie affected me; this doesn't mean that I am the ultimate arbiter of art, it just means that this is my blog and I know a bit more about my thoughts and feelings than I have technical movie knowledge :)
