Bring out your best jazz hands, because we’ve got a list that’s all-singing, all-dancing, and mostly fun (thanks Les Mis)! Every expression of the musical movie is present in this cavalcade of the 100 best-reviewed: the classics (Singin’ in the Rain, An American in Paris), the mostly moderns (La La Land, Hairspray), the MGMs (Singin’ in the Rain, An American in Paris), the Astaire & Rogers (Top Hat, Swing Time), intimate indies (Once, Dancer in the Dark), and stuff for the kids (Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang). We kept this countdown to live-action musicals, so nothing animated except for the partially so, like Mary Poppins. And though we included the grand Judy Garland version of A Star Is Born, we kept the new one off because, well, Lady Gaga told us to. Even she doesn’t think it’s a musical. Other than that, if the film was Fresh with some light feet and golden voices whose songs are key drivers of the plot, it was up for inclusion. After that, we ranked them all by Adjusted Tomatometer.

So with Mary Poppins Return hitting theaters, we’re bringing in the big showstopper: the 100 Best Musical Movies of All Time!

Straight from the book of the same title, an essential list for film buffs and more casual movie lovers alike. Titles are ranked here based on when they appear in the book, which is divided by the genres Action/Adventure, Comedy, Drama, Horror, Musical, Romance, Science Fiction & Fantasy, Mystery & Thriller, War and Western, then further organized by year released.

Since 1943, the Golden Globes have been celebrating the biggest, brightest, and starriest movies of the year. Now, we take every Golden Globe Best Motion Picture winner — including the categories for Drama, Comedy/Musical, and that brief period of unadulterated hedonism during the 1950s/1960s when Musical and Comedy were separate — and sort them all by Adjusted Tomatometer! And now we’re all caught up with Green Book and Bohemian Rhapsody taking home the big two in 2019!
