I dare you not to smile while watching Singin’ in the Rain. The musical is a genre that Hollywood has always identified with. Singin’ in the Rain has been always been heralded as the genre’s king, and rightfully so. Besides the outstanding musical numbers, part of the reason this movie has to be so high on the AFI list is that Hollywood loves movies about making movies.

My review for Hocus Pocus 2 is a little skewed. As a 41-year-old man, did I enjoy Hocus Pocus 2? Eh, it was okay, but when I polled my daughters and their friends, this movie was off the charts for them.

The best thing about Bros is that it's not trying to hide what it is. Labeled as the first gay romantic comedy with a mostly LGBTQ cast to be given a wide release by a major studio, is for sure trailblazing in its efforts, but it never forgets the genre that it lives in.

What is our place in this world and are we willing to risk everything to be on the right side of history? Michael Clayton does a masterful job of posing deep philosophical questions in the disguise of a legal thriller.

I can't say Fletch is a movie that will I come back to, but I enjoyed myself in the moment. The character is completely memorable. The screenplay itself, not so much.

I really dug the simplicity and the creepiness of Misery. I've always been a sucker for tense films set in one location. It feels wrong to say that this hostage experience is fun, but I really delighted in William Goldman's clever screenplay.

Vengeance is an NPR fever dream of how a conservative West Texas town would handle the death of one of their own. I don't think this film gets close to the brilliance of a Coen brothers' film, but it embodies the Coen spirit with dark themes mixed in with absurdist comedy.

I’ll just go ahead and put it out there. I can’t stand the character of Scarlett O’Hara. I get why her character has stood the test of time, especially knowing when this movie was released. Even today, you don’t see strong female leads like her who are unapologetic for their pursuits and desires in life.

The songs and melodies are terrific to listen to, but this movie is a disservice to their quality. There is no imagination surrounding the performances, which means that in a musical, the story better be stellar.

Why do horror movies keep ruining good things? I'm not an avid user of Airbnb, but now I'm going to check every crevice of my future rentals before settling in. Director Zach Cregger does a masterful job of playing with your expectations and he unravels this twisted tale in inventive and curious ways.

Though I don't have quite as an emotional relationship with Dirty Dancing as a lot of my friends (or wife), you can't deny its charm.

If Te'o's participation in this documentary was to convince you how and why he formed this "fake" relationship, I appreciate his bravery behind that decision because I now look at this story in a different light.

Heat is an interesting crime thriller in the sense that there are no heroes. It's a portrait of horrible men who refuse to change their lot in life despite how it affects those they are closest with.

This documentary hit close to home. My wife is the state director for the YMCA Oklahoma Youth and Government program, so I have experience with this program as a volunteer and an employee of the Y.

Prey does an amazing job of capturing the spirit that made the original film such a hit. This prequel strips away all the nuances that similar sci-fi/action flicks fall prey to (pun unattended).

Houseguest was one of those movies that I loved as a teenager. I always thought Sinbad was hilarious, and who doesn't love Phil Hartman? I saw this pop up on Hulu and immediately wanted to engage.

Look Both Ways has an interesting premise, although not new. It's a pleasant ride. The story is simple and the characters are relatable but by the end, I couldn't quite understand why it took almost two hours of runtime to get to its ultimate conclusion.

Maybe I should have lowered my expectations for The Lost City. It appeared as a blatant rip-off of Romancing the Stone, but I was okay with that because I liked the idea of Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum in the same film together.

Marcel the Shell with Shoes On is probably one of the most adorable things that you’ll ever see. But don't let the genuine cuteness of this start-stop animation mockumentary fool you. It's full of heartfelt emotional depth and this little one-inch-tall shell embodies the struggles that our society has gone through the past couple of years.

It's fun to see how everything unfolds, although it's far from perfect. And when Al Pacino is one of the more grounded actors in the story, you know that says a lot about the ridiculousness that is shown by others. But somehow it is a fun mess to behold.
