I am a movie addict (but not in a “call the addiction hotline” way). Honestly, if a guy wanted a majority of our dates to be movies, I wouldn’t hate it.
In twenty nineteen, I watched over sixty movies for the very first time; some of them came out this year, and others came out in the earlier years. As we near the end of twenty nineteen, I wanted to share my top nineteen movies of the past.
Note: I decided to keep it simple and factual with this list; I feel like the order speaks my opinion enough (if that statement made sense).

Even though we are kind of in a time where movies lack originality, I still managed to find some amazing films this past year. I wonder what films we’ll see on the big screen in twenty twenty.
