Best Movies of 2025
Our best-of-2025 list, ranked by audience rating rather than opinion. Homebound (7.9), Kesari Chapter 2 (7.9) and the Chinese animated hit Ne Zha 2 (7.9) sit just behind the top three: Mannu Kya Karegga, Dhurandhar and Kantara: Chapter 1.
It currently uses the same ranking as our Top Movies of 2025 page. Hindi, Telugu, Kannada and Hollywood releases appear together, so check the language on each title.
20 titles are currently listed on this page. Ranked by the IMDb user rating stored for each title, highest first. A very small release-date weight only breaks ties, so the newer film goes first when ratings match. Titles without a rating, including unreleased films, come after all rated titles, latest release first. This is not an editorial or box-office ranking.
