I’m a little behind this year. By nearly 3 months = 12 movies. Eek! We’ve been watching more television and a lot of home renovation/home buying shows because we’re ready to settle down and call a place home.
Sometimes I’ve thrown on something mindless…because it’s 2020. Don’t judge me. We didn’t start out avoiding drama and the like, but too much seriousness left us feeling emotional in an already emotionally strung out existence, so we tried to find more casual, fun type fare on occasion, but that means we’ve watched a lot of subpar movies.
I’m going to use a simple ABC rating system and not review them individually this time. The letter grade should offer enough insight as to my feelings.
- Alita: Battle Angel – A
- Moana – A
- To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before – B
- Kissing Booth – D
- Falling Inn Love – C
- Toy Story 4 – B
- Inside Out – A
- Frozen II – C
- Into the Spiderverse – A
- To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before 2 – C
- Hobbs and Shaw – C
- Anna – B
- Prospect – B
- Mission: Impossible – Fallout – C
- Tron: Legacy – C–
- Bird Box – D
- Midnight Special – B–
- The Platform – C
- Aniara – D
- The Old Guard – B
- Bumblebee – C
- The Big Sick – C
- The Half of It – B
- Knives Out – B
- Jojo Rabbit – A
- Venom – C
- Enola Holmes – B
- Us – C
- Men in Black: International – C
- The Amazing Spiderman – C
- Lovebirds – B
- The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies – C–
- Hocus Pocus – C (This one is sort of a cheat as I have seen it before but not since its release. I barely remembered any of it, and it does not hold up.)
As it’s now the end of October, and the last few months have felt like an eternity, some of these viewings are a little blurry at this point but I’m fairly secure in these ratings.
I would love some suggestions for the remainder of the year. What movies have you enjoyed?
