Judd Apatow and Michael Bonfiglio's film looks at the life of one of the most influential comedians of all time with the goal of re-examining his jokes for our current era.

This documentary is kind of like a long version of one of those 'George Carlin predicted this!' Facebook posts your uncle is always circulating, but in a good, well-crafted way. Stars: George Carlin, Jerry Seinfeld, Jon Stewart, Chris Rock, Patton Oswalt, Stephen Colbert, Bill Burr George Carlin, George Carlin's American Dream George Carlin's Estate/HBOĭirector: Judd Apatow and Michael Bonfiglio You might as well give yourself over to it. But how am I supposed to criticize or care when Luhrmann, in all of his galaxy-brained ingenuity, decided to score a scene with a mash-up of 'Viva Las Vegas' and Britney Spears' 'Toxic'? What's going on in Elvis is bigger than all of us.

Here, a star is born in Austin Butler, who gives what just might be the best film performance of the year as Presley, and it's made even more confounding by the fact that a gonzo Tom Hanks gives what is easily the worst film performance of the year, and definitely of his career, as Presley's mustache-twirling cartoon villain of a manager Tom Parker. His latest is the Elvis Presley biopic Elvis, a disorienting '50s-themed carnival ride condensed into a two-and-a-half-hour movie. Whether you count yourself as a fan of his or not, culture is unquestionably better when Baz Luhrmann gets to go wild and make a big-budget spectacle. Stars: Austin Butler, Tom Hanks, Olivia DeJonge It received middling reviews and lost a lot of money upon its theatrical release, but now you can watch and make up your mind for yourself. It's one of those movies where everything's moving fast, absolutely every character is played by someone super famous ( Taylor Swift herself is in it), and the tone vacillates between screwball comedy and sincere period piece.

Russell's historical film set in the 1930s about three friends who become suspects in a murder and, in the process, unwittingly get involved in a bizarre political conspiracy. Stars: Christian Bale, John David Washington, Margot Robbie, Taylor Swift, Robert De Niro, Anya Taylor-Joy, Chris Rock, Michael Shannon, Mike Myers, Rami Malek, Timothy Olyphant, Zoe SaldanaĬhristian Bale, John David Washington, and Margot Robbie star in David O.

Pádraic is baffled and devastated, and the film escalates to gory heights when Colm makes it clear what he's willing to do in order to get Pádraic to leave him alone. But Colm comes to the decision that he's running out of time to waste in life and doesn't want to spend it with someone he deems a lost cause.

It's not a mutual break-up: Farrell's Pádraic is a simple man whose main sources of joy are hanging out with his miniature pony and drinking beer in the afternoons with Gleeson's Colm. One of the best films of 2022, The Banshees of Inisherin takes place on a gloomy Irish island that begins to fall apart when two guys who live there - played by Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson - stop being friends.
