Missing is a tensely enjoyable roller-coaster ride that had my eyes glued to the screen.

The Eternal Daughter might be 2022’s best film.

Knives Out set an impossibly high bar. Glass Onion vaults over it with rhapsodic ease.

The Menu is as delicious as it is vile, as mouthwatering as it is salacious.

The good news is that watching Enola run around Victorian London solving crimes, getting into trouble with Tewksbury, and in general making a fiercely independent feminist nuisance of herself remains a great deal of fun.

Bodies Bodies Bodies is a gnarly, uncouth, and suitably deceitful breath of fresh horror air.

I’ve seen a lot of bad movies in 2022. I have not watched any that made me so angry I wanted to start throwing things at the screen. Until now.

Where the Crawdads Sing is an old-school Southern melodrama told in big, broad brushstrokes. It wears its emotional machinations proudly on its sleeve.
