    I went to a theater with my girlfriend to see “The Batman” but we couldn’t catch the time and the only movie that was available at the time was “Everything Everywhere All At Once” so we went in it completely blind. No trailer or anything. Best decision we’ve ever made!

    My best friend and I saw it completely blind on purpose. The only thing I knew about it was the two people specifically recommended that I see it. I was intrigued so I didn't look it up at all, and when I told my friend she hadn't heard of it either and came with me. It was so meaningful to both of us. Best theater experience of my life.

    Everything Everywhere changed my life. It represents a pivotal moment for me. I saw it almost a month after my mom passed away and it helped me process my grief. I saw so many reactions to EEAAO on KZread where people were like “I need to call my mom and say ‘I love you’” when the film ended and I sat there thinking that I won’t be able to do that for the rest of my life. In a world filled with noise, I knew that the memories and the precious moments I had with her represent what matters most. Our lives are the memories we make along the way and I had to say goodbye to my mom but I will cherish the few special moments in my life with her and see her in my dreams. Moreover, Everything Everywhere helped me - as a gay man - understand how unconditional her love was for me despite what may have initially been disappointments she had about the direction my life has taken. What a tremendous experience that film was.

    This movie touched me deeper than any movie I've seen. My son told me to see it. At the end I was sobbing, and I didn't quite know why. The mother's fierce love for her daughter, and being able to meet and match her daughter's power directly, was one reason. Another was the scene of her defeating the people on the staircase - with kindness geared towards their deepest desires and needs. So many of the themes were profound. And at the same time it was crazy chaotic. Amazing. Take good care. 💕

    Huh, it's funny that with such a subjective art form that I interpreted the rock scene so differently. For me, it represented the temptation of nonexistence (leading to the Bagel later) - to trade the chaos for stillness at the expense of life, but her mother pulled her away from being a rock for a purpose. Everything Everywhere All at Once really resonated for me as being a deeply anti-nihilistic message while at the same time acknowledging the emotional reality of nihilism and how living can feel so overwhelming, which made it all the more powerful. It was as if the Daniels were holding our hands and saying "yes, that feeling is real. Exist anyway. Connect with each other anyway." That was such a deeply important message right when I think people needed it the most. I sobbed when I watched it. I think they succeeded, and damn it caught me off guard.

    that was my interpretation as well and what youve said about the Daniels essentially bringing this simple yet grand sense of comfort within all of this chaos- i had not been able to feel that before. not really from anyone or any form of media. as someone who has been struggling with my mental health for years now it felt like the movie was able to touch upon many layers upon layers of perspectives that ive come to adopt and it helped me feel acknowledged and seen for once, a kind of genuine validation i truly feel grateful for. i also thank Thomas for this because his video on the movie came to me as a wonderful preface before finally being able to give a head on dive into EEAAO.

    Discovering your channel has been one of the best things to happen to me this year. I finally got around to seeing Burning after all your very many attempts to get your viewers to see it. Watching Burning, it amazed me how you spoke about it so many times and in different contexts and yet you managed to not give away any hint to how the plot of the movie ended up going. It's an incredible thing, to be so chatty about a movie you love and still giving nothing away. For 2022, it has really been an amazing year for movies. I've been doing a lot of catching up in the past month after spending the first 11 months watching movies from the 20th century, some of which I got from your channel. So much more to come in 2023. I love the gift that is cinema.

    Yes! Thank you for taking the words right out of my mouth and thank you Thomas! Burning, and Thomas' thoughtful breakdown of the film changed how I look at films, especially acting. I have been a self proclaimed film buff for most of my life, and that all changed following his thoughts on Burning, as well as the movie itself. I have never watched a film the same since and I realized quickly that my idea of being a film buff was nothing more than being able to lightly criticize films and be a wealth of facts regarding production and cast. I also fell in love with cinema again, after a very long break. Side note: Banshees and Nope are my two favorites from this year. I have watched those two films more since their release than I have seen new movies in the last five years.

    I dont know what youve been smoking to think this was a good year for film, but Id like some. The only movie on this list that was any good was Everything Everywhere All At Once and thats basically a remake of the movie "The One" from 2001 with worse action and a mindnumbingly dumb family subplot where 5 minutes in you already knew that it would end with the mother giving her depressed daughter a hug. This was the worst year in cinema in the past 50 years at least, and its not going to get any better next year because hollywood is creatively bankrupt, all the good writers left after their strike a decade ago didnt get them any better pay, and the entire industry has now run out of old scripts to recycle and classics to remake. Literally the only country producing good films is South Korea.

    As a person who doesn't understand movies very much and watches like 12 a year, I'd like to say that I'm very grateful for this channel. I've always focused more on the artistic side of videogames, so I know lots of analysts; essayists and reviewers. I started watching your stuff when Mark Brown (GMTK) shouted you out, and since then you're the only consistent source of movie info I got along with Mark Kermode (got any artistic non-pretentious movie reviewer recommendations?). And as a video essay enjoyer, I always appreciate your curve balls and willingness to experiment with the format (especially with the Bo Burnham vid). I was not expecting my favourite boy Kendrick to be in your top 10 movies list so you have me completely sold, I'm definitely watching all of these. Thanks for the list Thomas!

    The Banshees of Inisherin leave me with feelings that are hard to describe. I remember watching it on a rainy and windy afternoon. It feels very easy to enter into the film, feel the atmosphere that for me is strange and magical. This is the kind of movie that seems simple, maybe not everyone is interested in seeing it. But when you've watched it, really getting into that sensational movie is like entering another world in the middle of nowhere.

    I totally agree with your list. I however would've had Aftersun as number 1. I've never been that moved, mesmerised or speechless after a film, but also never had that sort of deep emotional cry and sadness from a film ever (and I watch a lot). The naturalistic style of the film and the feeling you are a voyeur within the film was so engrossing and how Paul Mescal and the film shows there is something underlying, especially when you get a real confirmation at (for me) certain points of what he's been battling, the rug purchase, the spitting at the mirror and the walk into the sea. For such a "simple" looking film it carries so much detail in all aspects. I really loved how the glimpses of what he's battling and his love for his daughter but his pain and torment weigh more than any of it. From the start and throughout it's just perfect and it ends with that beautifully tragic crescendo of an ending. side note: Avatar is stunning to look at, but it just feels like Ferngully but for the craft absolutely deserves in the top 10 list.

    Flee is definitely in my top 10. There's something in the form of animated documentary that makes stories feel both universal and like the result of someone recalling and trying to make sense of their memories. The film reveals the reality of the refugee experience as a brutal arena of individuals forced to run on tightropes, held up only by their loved ones. Even if safety is found, that need to flee never really leaves someone who has ran for their life.

    The place in The Banshees of Inisherin is incredibly important because of course it's a stand-in for the entirety of Ireland, and it's name even means island of Ireland in Irish Gaelic: Inis = Island (pronounced Inish) and Erin = Ireland. McDonagh did a great job with the film. Hope he wins the Best Original Screenplay Oscar.

    I’m so glad you included Top Gun: Maverick. I grew up with the original as my favourite movie and my friend group revolved around aviation and military experiences. I was incredibly cautious about getting my hopes up but it obliterated my expectations. The incredible use of real aircraft with the actors provided realism that was critical to the authenticity for aviation nerds like me. The manner in which they addressed every nostalgic touchstone without it being too much was masterful, even to their point that when I saw the F-14 my realisation of what was coming and how obvious it was set up but I was so engrossed that I missed it. It would have been easy for them to rely on CGI and that would have made the whole thing feel hollow. Excellent video as always, thanks!!

    Great 2022 movie list Thomas, this year had a ton of bangers! To add to one of my fav movies of the year Aftersun, Paul Mescal's performance as Calum encapsulates a real struggle in today's world; a loss of hope. I felt connected to his journey through Sophie's memories; trying Tai-Chi, meditation and putting on a smile for his daughter only to still feel a level of mental anguish with his life. Everything that he was told would help him feel better, even being grateful for having a beautiful daughter who loves and cares for him, he's still caught up in the pain within himself. A powerful journey to view on screen as it helps give perspective to other people going through a similar internal struggle. To understand that you shouldn't fight every battle alone, especially the ones that go on in your head.

    TAR is such a layered, well-directed ntm impeccable acting showcase from Cate Blanchett. It's really reductive when people call it MeToo or cancel culture movie, it's dense and does not spoon-feed the audience. People generally don't like that. They want expositions, everything deciphered out. The ending of TAR for me wasn't about her being cancelled, it's about an artist who loved art but was so subsumed by her own ego that she began to believe she's the art. The ending was about the sublimation of her ego and identity. Wearing headphones indicates, she's no longer a human metronome who marks time.

    I was also dazzled by this movie. Everything about its craft and the way it delivers information to the audience (visually, sonically, and narratively) showed a mastery of filmic control, which complimented the themes very well. The thing that really snuck up on me were some of the one-ers that permeate the movie. I think they are some of the most subtle but effective uses of one-take camera work I've seen. The teaching scene in particular was breathtaking in its use of a single take that isn't showy or command attention to itself, but instead focuses on the contrasts in character movement and blocking throughout the duration, largely following Tár as she moves from being on stage to walking out through the theater seating, literally and figuratively putting distance between her and Max the student. I also don't think I've ever felt so much tension from seeing someone's leg shaking.

    Super interesting list. Adding a suggestion that will for sure fly under the radar is “Good Luck to You Leo Grande”. It’s a humble movie that is super paired down to my favourite backbone of movies in general: excellent acting and writing with no other frills or subterfuges. I think the grandiosity of the director lies on the fact that they serve the story, they don’t use it to stand out. The main character is an older woman, the characters are profoundly human, flawed, complex, but capable of learning and redemption, and the subject is something that the deeply ingrained misogyny in the world at large has always deemed unworthy of the big screen, especially in such a direct and unapologetic approach. Emma Thompson is by far one of the greatest actors alive and couldn’t be more raw, convoluted and simply brilliant as the star.

I think you touched on what I perceive to be James' intention behind this series. He wants to help people see how incredible and indeed magical the world we live in is. There are parallels to systems here on Earth and those on Pandora. I also get really taken in by Zoe Saldana's performance, she's so convincing as a mother. Then there's all the technical aspects of making the film and underwater acting, the commitment from everyone involved. I'm glad it was successful. However, I don't like 3D. Some people swear by it but I saw it in both formats and personally I prefer traditional 2D.

    Cameron's films are stunning and technical marvels. I deeply appreciate his commitment to constructing the Avatar world and its inhabitants. Despite what I'm about to say, I still enjoyed it. I struggled, however, with Jake's motivations enough to pull me out of the movie a number of times. To avoid spoilers, I'll avoid specific examples. In general terms, the Jake of this movie behaves differently than the Jake we had come to know toward the end of the first film. That decisive warrior leader of mythological stature is missing from too much of this movie. I know Cameron tries to justify Jake's changed behavior, but I don't buy it. Jake's behavior doggedly runs contrary to what the other characters close to him want and need. Jake's forced motives serve to drive the plot and provide him with an artificial arc. Cameron still could have offered us his cinematic wonders and adventures without violating Jake's character. Instead, Cameron weighed the story down with a plot device versus what should have naturally come next for his own main character.

    I understand art is totally subjective but what I really don’t understand is the hype with your top film ‘rrr’. As much as I like Indian cinema, rrr just don’t work for me. Please help me understand. Would love to hear your opinion.

    Thanks for the great list! I have spent the past couple weeks watching and thinking about your picks. I don't know if I completely agree, but I DO KNOW you the first "critic"/"historian" in many years that has aligned so closely with my tastes and interests in film. Very glad you showed up in my recommendations!

    A lots of great movies this year ( eg. Top Gun Maverick , Avator The Way Of Water & The Fabelmans ....etc ) .....but in next 10 or 20 years .....movie lovers and critics will still remember this iconic " Everything Everywhere All At Once " . This film deserved to win BEST PICTURE @Oscar2023.

    I just saw Avatar in the theatres just yesterday, and it had quite an impression that I think you capture really well. I think as a screenplay, it has many holes, and it is hard to feel fully moved by the film. However, it was such a tour de force visually along with having such a heart to remind me, at least, in the power of acceptance in family, in friendships, in outsiders. It is hard to deny the passion James Cameron poured into the movie.

    I agree with what you said here. Avatar wasn’t perfect but I still think it was an important moment in cinema history that will always be remembered for its innovation.

    Thought it was pretty awful and completely lacked depth of character and was all about effects not substance… too many jokes in the story for me 👎🏽

    I'm from Argentina, just discovered your channel and im in love with it. So much care to your videos and analysis and we share a very similar taste. Cheers. Also Mr Morale was for me one of the (if not the one) best albums released of the year, and of course Kendrick one of the best musicians right now.

    Great picks on this list -- Triangle of Sadness is 100% my movie of the year. Dolly de Leon's character, the perfect uppercut in this unhinged satire, had me hooting and hollering (reader, if you're able to see it on a big screen, DO IT. the audience experience is raucous). I love her and what/who she represents.

    I finally watched it, and I couldn't stop cringing through the whole movie. I laughed a few times, and I guess it's a good commentary on class, but everyone in it is just SO horrible... Painful experience.
