NO TIME TO DIE - All the Time in the World

Ever since Dr. No landed in 1962 and launched the film franchise, James Bond has been a perpetual motion machine. 007 will always walk into M's office and accept the next mission, blow some things up, save the day, and we're told "James Bond will return" to do it all over again in a couple years. The problem being that most Bond actors run out the clock and end on a a damp squib rather than going out on a high note

But with Not Time to Die, Daniel Craig has a chance to leave as big an impression with his final round as Ian Fleming's secret agent as he did with his first.

THE SUICIDE SQUAD - Born Again

Let's just all agree that this is the first Suicide Squad movie anyone has made, yeah?

Yeah.

BLACK WIDOW - The Spy Who Avenged Me

It's a damn shame that it took this long to get us a Black Widow movie, but on the plus side, it's coming at a point where there hasn't been a Bond movie in a long-ass time, and really does the trick.

F9: THE FAST SAGA - Fellowship of the Furious

I know people like to joke about how these movies threw physics out the door 3 or 4 movies ago, but that was before Vin Diesel was literally using cars as grappling hooks.

Turns out, "owning it" can bear mighty fine fruit.

ARMY OF THE DEAD - Viva Las Vegas

Army of the Dead proves that Zack Snyder only really has one idea of his own when it comes to keeping "zombie stuff" from getting stale after more than five decades.

Luckily, it also proves that he can build out from it fairly well.

THE MITCHELLS vs. THE MACHINES - The Funniest Apocalypse

Animation - especially feature film animation - has never been in a better place than it is right now. To the point where the Disney/Pixar machine can be enjoying their best creative streak in decades (if not ever) and yet even their fine-tuned story machines like Zootopia, Soul and Raya and the Last Dragon wind up feeling somewhat upstaged by films like Your Name, Wolfwalkers, and - now - The Mitchells vs. The Machines.

Zack Snyder's JUSTICE LEAGUE - Deja Vu Squared

 It's, uh. . . folks, it's the same movie.
