From movies about movies, highly-anticipated sequels, and whatever you'd classify 'RRR' as, here are the best films of 2022.
After a few years when the movies were struggling, 2022 saw film come back in a major way. Thanks to Tom Cruise, an abundance of Marvel films, and the return of the Jurassic world yet again, 2022's box office was the biggest its been in years, and with the recent releases of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and Avatar: The Way of Water, it seems like the theatrical experience isn’t going anywhere any time soon. As a great scholar once said, heartbreak feels good in a place like this.
22. Avatar: The Way of Water Avatar: The Way of Water reminds us throughout that no director is quite like James Cameron in terms of scale, spectacle and ambition. When he’s at his best, Cameron’s films are tremendous experiences unlike any other. Cameron knows exactly how to construct a great action scene, not only in making the sequence exciting, emotionally powerful, and engrossing, but in just the basic mechanics of how a scene should function, putting other action directors to shame.
18. Marcel the Shell With Shoes On Marcel the Shell With Shoes On, like its title character, is far more than meets the eye. On the outside, it looks adorable and delightful—which it is—but on the inside, there’s a ton going on, as the difficulties and tragedies of life are seen through the eyes of a one-inch-tall shell.
14. Jackass Forever The Jackass franchise has always been a testament to adult friendships, making crazy ideas a reality, and the resilience of the human body. Jackass Forever is ingenious, disgusting, and one of the most hysterical films you’ll see this year, while also managing to be a wonderfully touching celebration of these jackasses and their history together.
10. Everything Everywhere All at Once Maybe no film this year lived up to its name quite like Daniels’ Everything Everywhere All at Once. If the directing pair had spent every minute of the last six years since making Swiss Army Man filming this true multiverse of madness and putting together this reality-hopping world, it would make perfect sense. It’s rare that a film crams as much into it as this one does, yet without feeling overstuffed or ridiculous for the sake of being audacious.
6. Aftersun In what feels like an incredible personal and meaningful true story from writer-director Charlotte Wells, Aftersun is a story all about perspective, whether in how the form of a room can alter how we see things, or how years away from an incident can make us feel an entirely different way about how we experienced something.
2. After Yang Like Kogonada's debut Columbus, After Yang is a film that seeps into your bones and sticks with you for a long time. Kogonada perfectly crafts a tremendously beautiful and quiet story of loss, the impact that our lives have on the world and the people around us, and what it means to be human. Kogonada says so much without saying much at all, letting the emotions of these characters tell the story.
