Two films released in 2018 have already made it onto the Rotten Tomatoes list of the best 100 movies ever, along with 13 films released in 2017.

The review aggregator website's top 100 is a rotating list of the top films with more than 40 critic reviews, ranked by their "adjusted score", where each critic from their list gets one vote each.

It makes for a list that differs greatly from other similar lists - like that of IMDb's - and throws up some interesting questions for film fans.

Is Wonder Woman really better than 12 Angry Men, Seven Samurai and The Good, The Bad and the Ugly?

Is Dunkirk really the best war movie ever made?

Is Thor: Ragnarok really better than Apocalypse Now?

Are the two best Star Wars movies ever made really The Last Jedi and The Force Awakens?

Is Paddington 2 really better than The 400 Blows?
