To clarify it's not the best films made, it's the best films to win the best film category at the Oscars.
But even so I can safely say I will never go and watch a film that is highly rated by this journalist.
In the top 20 we have;

The Shape of Water
Nomadland
12 Years A Slave
The Hurt Locker
and at 1 and 2
Parasite
Moonlight.

All of which I would categorise as ok and let's be honest you'll watch a re run of Bullseye before watching any of them again

I like The French Connection and think it is a great film but number 3???
Gone With The Wind which admittedly has dated and isn't particularly my cup of tea anyhow is 88th out of 93.

Just watched Nomadland, all I can say is the others must have been bloody awful.

I watched it last night, that’s 2 hours of my life I’ll never get back.
That’s the third Oscar Frances McDormand has won after her seventh nomination.
She won for Fargo which was ok.
She was nominated for Mississippi Burning which was a great film but I’d forgotten she was in it tbh.

The other Oscar nominated roles were Almost Famous, North Country, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri and Nomadland.
I’d sponsor someone to sit through any of them twice
