Reply to comment by Huevos___Rancheros in I need one movie recommendation from 2022 to make 50 movies total. by red_riders

Yeah, I saw that it comes out tomorrow. Have you seen it? I’m a Damien Chazelle fan, seen his other three movies, and like each one only slightly less than the one that came before, so I’m assuming the trend will continue?

I’ve got Decision to Leave on my list to watch. I’ve heard it’s really good.

Ive seen Babylon twice and I absolutely loved it. Initially I had given it a 5 stars on Letterboxd but on the second viewing I did notice some minor pacing issues that caused the movie to drag just a touch. Overall though I thought it was excellent

Hell yeah! The Place Beyond the Pines is so underrated. Love the music and cinematography in it. Boogie Nights is one of the best put together ensemble casts ever. Love that movie! Spider-Man 2, inarguably the best Spider-Man movie. And Goodfellas is suspenseful. Love Joe Pesci. So iconic.
