Top 10 Movies From 2023
Previous Rankings#31-50#11-30 10) Joy Ride A straight comedy in the top 10, you simply love to see it. Funniest movie of the year, with my favorite ensemble cast.

ANYONE BUT YOU Review

WONKA Review: Timothée Chalamet Is Endlessly Charming In Delightful Prequel
Of all the unnecessary sequels, prequels, and remakes, a prequel to Wily Wonka and the Chocolate Factory was near the top of that list. Part of the fun and intrigue to the Wonka character was the mystery, the unknown behind his early life and what made him him. He was truly a one of one. […]
