It’s hard to make a comedy out of a movie that starts with a husband slapping his wife just because, but it works.
My Top 10 Favorite Movies of 2025
As usual, as a caveat, I’ll start with a list of movies I wish I had the opportunity to see, but haven’t yet.
Gaming and Costs
There’s a fun little website called SteamDB. Now, since you need to volunteer your data to them to use the website, I’m not advocating for it. Use it at your own peril. However, I did and it did give me interesting information.

Ted Sarandos being the CEO of Netflix.
MIS? Review
Yes, the name of the movie is ‘MIS?’. No, as of this writing, it’s not on IMDb or LetterBoxd. That must be a big oversight by the distributor or production company and someone should do something about that. I like to check movies before I see them. The only reason I decided to see this was that it’s by an independent company. I like to see those out of interest. Sometimes quite morbid interest.
My Top 10 Favorite Dystopian Sci-Fi Movies
People expect me to love sci-fi, but to me it’s just one more genre.
My Top 10 Favorite Whodunits
Something to keep in mind: there’s a difference between a movie being a whodunit and having whodunit elements. For example, IMDb categorizes Heart Eyes as a whodunit, but if you were looking to have a nice mystery along the lines of Agatha Christie or Sherlock Holmes, all the gory kills might not really be for you.

My Top Ten Favorite Movies About Food
My initial instinct was to make this a joke and put on movies like Layer Cake, Duck Soup and Milk which just have foods in their titles, but that wouldn’t have been fun after one of them, so you get a real list.
My Top 10 Favorite Final Girls
At first I thought I might not be able to do this, because my choices wouldn’t be interesting enough, but then I still made the list and turns out that while some are pretty predictable, I did come up with some from the left field as well.
