David Ehrlich’s Top 25 Films Of 2025

It’s here! We’re big fans of David Ehrlich’s annual countdown videos that don’t just highlight the critic’s own top films of the previous year, but also shine a spotlight on some of the best moments across last year’s cinema. Ehrlich does a tremendous job incorporating music (from last year’s films) and scenes in such a way to create a truly engaging and exciting compilation.

In addition to it being a great video, it is also for an excellent cause. As Ehrlich writes:

this year's video is once again in support of the Palestine Children's Relief Fund. If you'd like to support their urgent efforts to bring food, medicine, and other life-saving supplies to the people of Gaza please consider donating here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/david-ehrlich-2026-video-countdown-fundraiser.

Please give if you can!
