Great movie, no reason for all the hate. 8.5/10

I thought it was very good, 8/10. It wouldn't make my top 10 of the year, but would likely be in my top 20.

It would be in mine. A lot of forgettable trash came out this year, I cant even make a top ten off the top of my head. Feel free to make recommendations in case I missed out on something good. Thanks.

1. CODA
2. Judas and the Black Messiah
3. In The Heights
4. Annette
5. Candyman
6. Dear Evan Hansen
7. Dune

9. King Richard
10.Nobody

Honourable mention: Titane, Malignant, House of Gucci, Malcolm & Marie, No Time to Die, Ghostbusters Afterlife, Cry Macho

Cool thanks. I am hoping Licorice Pizza turns out to be my favorite. I would have Shang-Chi and NTTD on my list and also the Australian film Nitram which just came out.

i just finished watching it, & am very pleasantly surprised by how great i thought it was.

i thought the trailers made it seem like a dark, dreary dirge, but it wasn't like that at all. i found it pacey and surprisingly funny at times.

i am the first person to complain about long running times, but this is one of the best recent examples where i was wrapped up in the movie to such an extent that i never felt the weight of all those passing minutes.

i might shift this around a bit, but right now i have it slotted as my #7 movie of the year.
