V for vendetta is my go to for a political movie.
Some thought that cartoonish villains taking over western countries while the rest of the world went to shit was far fetched but here we are.
That’s the thing you don’t know if the rest of the world did go to shit. That’s the point of fascist take over and propaganda they put out. “The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
Political: I, Daniel Blake.
Apolitical: Spirited away
The hunt for red October.
Sneakers.
Not saying ever etc… Just my favorites of the top of my head
Wag the Dog is my personal political favourite – still holds up well after all these years. It came out in 1997, just at the same time the Clinton/Lewinski scandal surfaced.
All art is political.
The only apolitical movie I can think of is plan 9 and that is pushing it
Best political, probably Kolkata 71. Parasite is also very good. Best apolitical, I have to go with Panther Panchali. It’s so hard to just choose one movie, my answer will probably change if you ask me again in a few days. A list of 20 might do it a bit more justice lol.
Dredd is incredible. Super underrated.

All the President’s Men is my favorite political movie.
