In 2022 it felt like moviegoing came (almost) all the way back (for the seemingly dwindling number of people who were willing to go into the theaters). As the year winds to a close, we’re sharing lists of our favorite films we’ve seen (so far).

As per usual, I was cramming in as many movies as I could so I had a chance to actually create a top ten that is accurate and I’m pretty proud of. That being said this is totally relative to each individual, but hopefully it’ll give you a place to start when you’re looking for some fantastic films to spend your precious time watching. I’ve got comedy, action, supernatural fun and even a frightening, energy barfing behemoth; so whatever your mood or taste, there’s something here for you.

Looking back at the movies that were released since January 1, I can’t say that I saw every movie that was on my to-watch list (and I’m still trying to get in as many as I can before midnight on 12/31) but I think there were some definite highlights. These are ten films that I loved for one reason or another. The forceful showing of speaking truth to power in Argentina, 1985, All the Beauty and the Bloodshed, and Holy Spider. The action sequences in The Batman and Everything Everywhere All at Once. The exploding farts of Jackass Forever. Of all of the years in movie history, 2022 was definitely one of them.
