These are the top Malayalam movies of 2023. Because a lot of times we need the perspective of multiple people to come to a meaningful conclusion, I have started this new approach to list the best films in Mollywood that came out in 2023. You can also browse my other lists here: http://www.imdb.com/user/ur34967775/lists.

The best Malayalam films of 2023 as selected by eminent critics. This list takes into consideration the reviews and ratings by Nowrunning.com (multiple reviewers), Lensmen Reviews (Aswin Bharadwaj S), Film Companion (multiple critics), The Firstpost (Anna Vetticad), The Hindu (S R Praveen), and New Indian Express.

These top 2023 Malayalam films are updated every other week and are ranked on the basis of their aggregate score, which is a mean value of all the ratings given by the critics. Because not all films are reviewed by every critic, a title is added into this list only if it has been reviewed by five or more people/publications (including me). So, in essence, all Malayalam films releasing between January 2023 and December 2023 (in theatres or OTT) will be considered by these seven critics + me.
