Sunday afternoons have their own particular energy, unhurried, slightly nostalgic, perfect for films that take their time. Thrillers with real tension, the kind that makes you hold your breath without realising it. All from the 2000s, a decade that produced some of the most ambitious and original films in recent memory. Films that rewrote the rules and influenced everything that came after them.
