2018 was a long, strange year. Maybe every year feels long and strange but this year was for sure full of crazy news but nonetheless some good entertainment. A lot of people have stated it was a terrible year for movies but I disagree. The mainstream market was, for the most part, full of unnecessary reboots and sequels and blatant money grabs that didn’t interest me.
Luckily, we got acting at the top of their game Ethan Hawke and Nicolas Cage. I mention these two because they both made drinking alone utterly compelling, Cage especially goes for broke (pun intended) and proves he’s truly an excellent actor. I think there were a lot of great films under the radar and I am very happy to have compiled some of my favorite movies for you. Happy New Year!
