Favorite Discoveries of 2022

If you don’t follow me on any other platform outside of this blog, you might not realize how many movies I watch each year outside of new releases—so many, in fact, that I wonder why I bother subscribing to any other streaming service when I increasingly spend the bulk of my time inside of the […]

Best Movies of 2022

2021 may have been the year we went back to the movies, but 2022 felt more like the year that movies were back. “Spectacle” seems to be the theme running concurrently through so many of this year’s releases. We got sprawling epics with meaty runtimes, starry casts, and vast set-pieces that demanded to be seen […]

Best Movies of 2021

2021 was a big year for movies. We returned to theaters (at least I did, after a full 14 month absence), and a number of films held over from 2020 finally saw the light of day. That’s not to say that things are back to what we used to know as normal, but as they’ve […]

Top 10 Movies of 2019

2019 is over, and you know what that means- it’s time to reflect on the best movies released this past year. Everybody under the sun may be making their “best of 2019” lists right now, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to miss out. You can check out my picks for what I believe to […]

Top 5 Movies of Summer 2019

We are now into the first week of September, and that means that the summer movie season is officially at its end.

Top 10 Movies of 2018

The end of the year is always hard for me, as it comes time to narrow down the 70 or so new films I watched this year into a list that reflects the ten best. 2018 didn’t come with as many films that I loved or personally connected with as past years have, but the […]

5 Best Movies of Summer 2018

When I have reflected on summer movies in past years, I’ve always found it hard to pick the best ones from the films I’ve seen, usually because there aren’t more than a couple that I believed were truly great. This year, however, my top five list was hard to narrow down because there were so […]

Predicting the 2018 Golden Globe Awards

The awards season is once again upon us, and today is the first major awards show of the year with the 75th Golden Globe Awards airing tonight. The Globes aren’t always a great indicator of what films will eventually win the Oscar, but they’re still fun to watch and predict, especially this year. Unlike last […]

10 Best Movies of 2016

2016 has come to a close, and as strange and often sad as this year was, at least we can say we got some great movies out of it. In fact, this was the first year I can remember that I struggled to fill my list of the year’s top 10 movies not because there […]
