Agreed on both. I was not expecting to like Maverick as much as I did. Second best movie of the year IMO.
2022 was a very good year for movies.
See any good movies lately?

Yeah, I'm not an original Top Gun guy, but Maverick is just a standalone fantastic movie.

I saw this over the weekend and just thought it was kinda meh. It tried to be a tearjerker but it just didn’t pull me in for some reason. I’d probably give it like a 5/10.

Probably not many slasher fans here, but I really enjoyed Scream 6! The scenes were drawn out and much more suspenseful than the previous movie.

Knock at the Cabin was super boring! 2/10, don't recommend.

I kinda feel like I need to go see the Super Mario Brothers movie. It appears that everyone else has...

Across the Spider-Verse is quite possibly the greatest Spider-Man movie of all.

Apparently, it's following in the mold some of last year's cinematic masterpiece, Everything Everywhere All At Once.

Dead Reckoning Part One is the longest Mission: Impossible film to date, but still a blast from start to finish. Fun.

Just looked at the trailer. Being a fan of the Toby McGuire stuff , it would
be impossible for me to turn the switch to animation. I am intrigued
about the Mission Impossible movie. Those have always been good rides.

Saw Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny over the weekend. Not on par with the first three but a lot better than Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

Wife and I going Tuesday to see it.
We watched Ford vs, Ferrari yesterday on DVD. Great movie. I particularly like the part where Henry Ford Jr. takes a ride in a GT40.

I didn’t have much interest until I checked out Into The Spider-Verse a couple of years ago and wondered why I hadn’t done so earlier. I think, at worst, Into/Across are the two best successive SM movies since Tobey was in SM and SM2 back in the day.

After watching Ford vs Ferrari for the second time, it raises a lot of questions in my mind.
1. Ford was not interested in racing LaMons , yet they already had a 289 CID GT40 prototype in England, they flew it in and Shelby was surprised.
2. Shelby is in charge yet, he wanted more HP and bingo bango another GT40 come in from England with a 427 CID in it? Again surprised.
3. Shelby goes to Daytona and what do ya know, there are three other GT40 teams there, supported by Ford, to compete with.
Great movie, yes. But there are a lot of holes in the story.

Me either and Bale did a great job portraying him I thought. He was a hell of a wheel man for sure and he went out doing what he loved.

I watched it in theaters so you have me thinking I’m due for a rewatch now.
I think they skipped a year of development in the film, Ford had two rough attempts in ‘64 and ‘65, I think they only showed the follow-up to one.
Ford did have Holman-Moody and one other factory team that year, I forget who. But there was some real intrateam rivalry with the sports car guys and the stock car guys (“******* NASCAR crew”) as well.
Some artistic liberties were taken for sure but I think it was the best big Hollywood attempt at a racing movie in a long time. Ken Miles was sort of lost to history so it’s great that someone took his story to the big screen.

Saw Mission yesterday, pretty good, lots of action. A little tedious at times but overall good fun movie.

Oppenheimer was riveting, gonna win a lot of awards. Christopher Nolan knocked it out of the park again and Ludwig Göransson put together a phenomenal score.

Finally saw it today. Riveting is a good word. It's remarkable that anyone can make a movie about such dry subject matter and have it feel like such a thriller. I'm not generally a fan of three hour epics, but the pacing is so brisk that I don't think it's overlong at all. Maybe the writing in a couple scenes is a bit pat and forced, but what a brilliant exercise in filmmaking. Murphy and Downey are astounding.

Got 45 minutes into The Flash before I had to turn it off.
Studios need to give "multiverse" movies a break.

Saw Equalizer 3, 3 weeks ago, just as good as the other 2. Hard to be Denzel
Saw Expendables 4 yesterday, good movie but, not as good as the other 3.

Watched Parasite over the weekend, I can see why it won Best Picture a few years ago. You have to read subtitles the whole time because it’s a Korean movie, but I thought it was really good and it definitely sticks with you.

I watched The Father starring Anthony Hopkins. That was tough to watch. A great depiction of Alzheimer's.
