Regardless, I loved this movie. I just kept waiting for an ulterior reason for the broken friendship but, doesn’t matter in the end!

He still went to the pub regularly and had his pints.

Reply to Five Non-2022 Movies by tuna1694
This year I watched:
- Gone Girl - was a good film, had me invested in the plot and Rosamund Pike became my low key crush. The acting was solid and the plot was not overtly complicated so it was easy to keep track of things.
- Banshees of Inisherin - beautiful film with a simple story told for the sake of telling a story. Great acting and beautiful scenery, I found it refreshing and great for just enjoying a good story with no ulterior sub plot.
- **Grave of the fireflies ** - finally got to see this film, and it is a bittersweet experience. It is a sad film, even when I knew it beforehand, it was still heartbreaking and left me with a hole in my soul for a couple of days after watching it. One of those movies you just don’t want to rewatch it anytime soon because of the feeling of disparity you get after you’re done. Must watch anyway.
- Doctor Sleep - this one was kind of fun. Totally unexpected, I didn’t know how a sequel to The Shining would work, as I have not read any of the original sources (books), so it was a nice surprise. Some tie ins felt forced, but overall it was ok, I enjoyed it and was pleased!
- Deliverance - I watched this one because of the buzz about that one scene (you know which one), but it wasn’t even that shocking. The movie was good overall and enjoyable.

Jerry McGuire, The Firm, A few Good Men

Roberto Benigni’s Pinocchio - you have to watch that one to understand… words cannot describe the amount of mind fuckery in this piece of art

Reply to It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World (1963) is a great comedy classic. Any others similar to it? by gulgotcj
The Cannonball Run series, more or less… part 2 was more light hearted than the first one.

I kind of agree. I’m not gonna be excited about a CGI experience I can get with any video game I can play at home anyway. Rather have a nice plot with great acting.

In Bruges was really good too! I had forgotten about that one!
