You won’t find that film, nor Top Gun: Maverick (#3) on my best of 2022 list. Au contraire, I find that the more the quality of studio filmmaking diminishes, now on a yearly basis, the more foreign-language cinema takes over as the very best film has to offer. Hollywood is in very dire straits right now, if the most critically-acclaimed major studio flick released is a sequel to “Top Gun” then we’re in trouble. Even worse, the fact that it’s being touted as an Oscar contender only shows you how bad things are right now. The 10 best films screened, so far (in no particular order): Audrey Diwan’s “Happening,” Gaspar Noe’s “Vortex,” David Cronenberg’s “Crimes of the Future,” Justin Kurzel’s “Nitram,” Richard Linklater’s “Apollo 10 1/2,” Michel Franco’s “Sundown,” Steven Soderbergh’s “Kimi,” and Chloe Okuno’s “Watcher,” Daniel Roher’s “Navalny,” and Sara Dosa’s “Fire of Love” No disrespect to two films: Scott Derickson’s “The Black Phone” and Baz Luhrmann’s “Elvis,” both of which have been the best major studio releases I have seen this year. The best films screened but not yet released (no order): Ruben Ostlund’s “Triangle of Sadness”, Owen Kline’s “Funny Pages”, James Gray’s “Armageddon Time”, Paravel/Castaing-Taylor’s “De Humanis Corpis Fabrica”, Charlotte Wells’ “Aftersun”, The Dardennes’ “Tori et Lokita,” Julian Higgins’ “God’s Country”, Andrew Semans’ “Resurrection,” Alexandru Belc’s “Metronom,” Albert Serra’s “Pacification” I’m now wondering what the community of readers here would choose as their best films of the mid-year. It’s time for you to chime in. Contribute Hire me

I decided to look through this year’s movie schedule, from January to December, and these are the 35 highlights, so far (in no particular order): Crimes of the Future, Happening, Triangle of Sadness, Watcher, Funny Pages, Sundown, The Banshees of Inisherin, TAR, Glass Onion, Apollo 10 1/2, Nitram, Kimi, Aftersun, God’s Country, Resurrection, Vortex, Nope, Navalny, Armageddon Time, Hustle, The Northman, Elvis, Pleasure, Living, Dinner in America, Blonde, De Humanis Corpis Fabrica, How to Blowup a Pipeline, Pacifiction, The Fabelmans, Boy From Heaven, As Bestas, Barbarian, Fire of Love In the overpraised category, I’ve got to give major shout outs to “Everything Everywhere All At Once,” “Top Gun: Maverick,” “Women Talking” “X” and “After Yang.” There’s a little more than 60 days left in the movie year, still a lot to be seen, but, save for “Babylon” and a few others, most of the films with quality potential have been screened. I’ll probably be able to post my final top 10 list by the first week of December. Time for our readers to chime in on their own personal favorites. What have been the 5-10 best film experiences of 2022? Contribute Hire me
