Koimoi’s Audience Poll: Though the Bollywood movies did some unimaginable things in 2018 at the box office, there were many very good Hollywood movies too. Few did well; few were ignored because of its reach.
We bring the best of the best for you to decide which the ultimate one is. Let’s go through a few of the best Hollywood movies of 2018.
Black Panther:

Director Ryan Coogler takes a similar path as Eric Pearson (Thor: Ragnarok’s writer) of exploring a superhero flick beyond Marvel’s cinematic universe. Pearson was hugely successful in doing the same but somewhere Coogler takes the script too seriously. He surely delivers the twists & turns which Marvel fans are not used to. But in this process, he drags the story in between.
Avengers: Infinity War:
Avengers: Infinity War is about this monstrous evil Thanos who’s on a quest to obtain all the six Infinity Stones. The accomplishment of this mission will give him the power to destroy half of the world and rule the other half. There are movies whose stories can be explained in a single line and this is one from them. But the catch is there’s a whole universe established behind that single line. Every of 20 odd major characters is interdependent on each other. Every one of them has parallel tracks running with the others & the makers nail it in avoiding any sort of confusion. They prove how this isn’t any league, these are Avengers and mind you they’re entertaining.
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom:
The Fallen Kingdom carry forward the proceedings from its predecessor, 3 years later since the Jurassic World was destroyed by the dinosaurs. “These creatures don’t need our protection, they need our absence,” says Benjamin Lockwood in a scene that defines the entire plot in a single line. Colin Trevorrow, who helmed the 2015 instalment of Jurassic World, has co-written the script of the Fallen Kingdom with Derek Conolly (Kong: Skull Island).
Incredibles 2:
A little bit similar to The Incredibles, even this one starts highlighting the fact that how superheroes aka supers are illegal. Despite being prohibited, we know how our concerned Parr family loves to eliminate the bad guys. Director Brad Bird has cooked the same dish, using the same ingredients but it tastes mouth-watering different altogether. He smartly has retained everything that worked for the part 1 adding some refreshing elements to make this one stand out.
Mission: Impossible – Fallout:
As it was predicted by the hardcore fans of the series, we see Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) getting a self-destructive message about the mission he’s about to hop in. We are introduced to a group of terrorists called as Apostles. Christopher McQuarrie has levelled up the way M:I movies are narrated. What started with Rogue Nation, continues with Fallout & thanks to McQuarrie for keeping the franchise in a zone where it’s not been a mockery.
