My Top 10 Movies of 2023 . Top Story - December 2023.
I think 2023 is the most underrated year for great movies in my more than 20 years reviewing film online. I had a remarkable number of great movies to choose from for this list. According my my Letterboxd account, at SeanRadio, I gave more than 10 movies this year five stars. It could be that I am getting soft in my middle age, but I prefer to believe that the movies of 2023 are simply that incredible. The entirety of my Top 10 Movies of 2023 received a 5 star rating from me on Letterboxd. That's never happened to me before.

Marielle's Top 10 Worst Movies of 2023
I saw some good movies this year and some not-so-good ones. For both my best and worst movies, first, I will talk about films that have already been released, but I’ve never seen and then talk about films released in 2023. Remember, this is just my opinion. We all have different tastes in movies.

The Color Purple
The Color Purple is a movie musical version of a stage play, which is a musical version of the movie, which is the adaptation of the book. It is the only piece of media with that many adaptations that has maintained quality every single time. The touching, gorgeous, incredible story and music of the stage musical translated so beautifully to the screen and The Color Purple is easily one of the best movies of the year. If you like movie musicals you will love this movie, and if you don’t love movie musicals you should still watch this movie. All the reasons I normally hear from people for why they don’t like musicals don’t at all apply to this film.

Top 5 Tubi Villainesses of 2023
This has been an amazing year for villainesses from Tubi's original film; so much so that I've decided to give Tubi their own year-end list for 2023. Last year, I mixed some Tubi into the Lifetime year-end list, because a lot of Tubi's original films are the ones that Lifetime, Lifetime Movie Network, or even Lifetime Movie Club passes up. Regarding the number, I decided to list Tubi's five best villainesses, mainly because their releases don't really operate like Lifetime's. Combined, Lifetime and Lifetime Movie Network releases three thrillers a week (on non-holiday centered weeks). Tubi releases about three or four thrillers per month.

Wonka
There have been mixed reviews about the new Wonka movie starring Timothy Chalamet. With two previous Wonka movies the first thing I have to say is that absolutely nobody asked for this. When watching Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory no one in the history of ever has thought, well how did Wonka start making chocolate? So right off the bat this movie is entirely unnecessary. Now that I have seen it I can confirm that mixed is in fact the best way to describe this movie. When first seeing the trailer I knew that this movie was going to be really hit or miss and I was in fact correct.

80 For Brady
Okay so I really thought that this movie had come out last year. That’s how long this year has been and quite frankly how long they were advertising it. We first started seeing trailers for 80 For Brady back in October of 2022 so when I saw that it's release date was 2023 I thought for sure that had to be wrong. So anyway we finally got around to watching it and this is my formal review for the based on a true story movie, 80 For Brady.

Red, White, and Royal Blue
Earlier this year a book adaptation of Red, White, and Royal Blue hit Prime video. It had a good internet reception which is really what my only metric is for these streaming movies. This movie also caused me to start a nice little research project called Why Does Hollywood Hate Lesbians? But that is a different discussion. Having some gay rep in the mainstream is always a good idea. So now that I’ve gotten around to watching it, let's get into the review for Red, White and Royal Blue.

Rebel Moon is the Future of Entertainment. Top Story - December 2023.
CAUTION: SPOILERS AHEAD. There is no nice way of putting it. Rebel Moon is terrible. But not terrible for the reasons that most people have noticed. After being out for a little less than two weeks, most people have panned the movie for what it is. A sloppy, copy and paste job of some of the most popular science fiction franchises. However, Rebel Moon is far more problematic than that. It goes beyond common sci-fi tropes. It mashes together nearly every successful genre possible in hopes of appealing to the majority people. In doing this, it is everything and nothing at once.

Wonka Movie Review
More than fifty years after Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory delighted audiences, Roald Dahl’s classic stories have been picked up again for the silver screen. Warner Bros is hoping that a prequel with some ties to the original will win over viewers new and old. Unlike other tired franchise entries, Wonka is successful in its goals.
