I let you all down last week! Although, I promise you, I did in fact watch movies. Just not as many as I have been cranking out recently. With that in mind, I’ve got last week’s films below, as well as the ones that made the cut this week. Because voting for the Independent Spirit Awards will start in just a couple weeks, I’ve been sent screeners for a lot of the nominees, and while I’ve seen most of them, there are still a small handful I’ve been wanting to watch. Now’s my chance!

Mega Movie Weekend
I gave myself a long weekend, so that means a bunch of movies! While the weekend’s viewings started out light and fun, they eventually morphed into a more serious territory, which I really enjoyed! To be frank, none of these movies were bad, and there was one that rose above the rest, but you can’t go wrong adding any of these titles to your future watch-list.

Ah, back to normal viewing levels this weekend after last week’s insanely busy slate full of Sundance Film Festival entries. Actually, I’d consider this a pretty low count! And truth be told, none of these were real winners despite the hype for at least one of them.

I realize we’re almost to the new weekend, but I felt the need to highlight some other new films I managed to squeeze in between all of my Sundance selections!

And they keep on coming! The Sundance Film Festival is a week-long endeavor, so that means while ideally I’d get to watch everything I want on the weekend, realistically there are some I’ve got to wait for. But they are worth the wait! Also, it worked out for me that none of these interfered with my day job! Another strong lot of films, so let’s get into it!

You know, for still being in the midst of a pandemic that keeps pushing back the release of so many films, there is still a boatload of new films to be seen! Yes, my Film Independent membership certainly helps with this, but if you look they are there. You just have to be more open to some indie titles!

As I’ve said before, this Film Independent membership is coming through in spades! I got the opportunity to view three more upcoming 2021 titles, and they will generally be worth your time! Nostalgia brought me back to the rest of the titles I watched this weekend, so I got a nice balance out of it all. Let’s go!

This weekend touted a real hodgepodge of quality. Some were pretty darn good, some were rather mediocre, and some were just downright bad. Also, I got my hands on some brand new films…although that’s not always a good thing.

My membership with Film Independent is really pulling through with some awesome viewings! I was able to see a small handful of films this past week before they were available to the general public, so I figured I should share with you all on a high level what happened in all of them!
Read moreBest and Worst Films of 2020
We already know that 2020 was the worst, but that doesn’t mean movies let me down! Well…at least not all of them. I watched 245 films this year and there were certainly some stinkers, but for the most part, 2020 delivered some very impressive indie films (my favorite), and I unearthed some older titles. That’s one thing this pandemic has been good for: making time for movies I’ve never had time for in the past. Let’s talk about my favorites, my least favorites, and some bonus runner-ups!
