Best Movies

Kevflix has always been a website about movies, with the occasional dabble into some TV. But my first love before getting into writing about movies was sports and it is something I am still very passionate about. Since I can remember, I’ve always loved sports.  I have my favorites to play and watch, but I don’t discriminate against any sport.  Whether something as popular as basketball or a sport so random it might not even…

The 2022 SXSW Film Festival officially kicks off this week and it should be a very fun and exciting festival. This will be my second year covering the Austin-based film festival and this year looks just as strong as last year, if not stronger. This year’s SXSW Film Festival is both in-person and virtual and I am incredibly excited to be attending in person. There are a lot of great movies playing at this year’s…

The 2022 Sundance Film Festival has officially come to an end. I saw 30 movies at this year’s festival, one less than last year. Overall, this year’s festival was really good. There were a number of movies that I really liked and only two or three that I truly did not like, mostly because they were boring. However, missing from this year’s festival was a movie that was a truly great film. In previous years,…

The 2022 Sundance Film Festival kicks off this week and, as I’ve written many times, this festival is very near and dear to my heart. I started attending the Sundance Film Festival back in 2011 as a volunteer for the festival and over the last couple of years have had the honor of covering the festival as a member of the press. This is a film festival I truly love. I love the focus on…

It’s that time. Time to look at the best movies of 2021. Crazy that the year is officially over, but here we are. 2021 as a whole was an interesting one, but as a movie year, I thought it was rather great. Though the COVID-19 pandemic still lingered around the entire year, we saw movie theaters open back up and audiences head back to the cineplex. Film festivals had an interesting year, with some being…

Continuing my look at the best movies of 2021, here are my picks for the best performances in 2021. Every year this is the toughest list to make and every year I feel bad about leaving some performances off.  Like previous years, I have broken the performances down by category, much like the Oscars, with Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Supporting Actress. For each category, I will list the “nominees” and…

Continuing my look back at the best movies of 2021, I am now going to look at some of my favorite movie scenes and moments from the movies of 2021. Whether it was a masterclass scene of acting, an exhilarating action scene, or a moment of pure entertainment, these were all scenes from 2021 movies that I loved. There were a ton of movie scenes that I loved in 2021, but this group of movie…

Continuing my look back at the best movies of 2021, I am now going to look at the best technical achievements of 2021. I will be looking at the best screenplays of the years, the best camera and set work, the best music, and other technical categories. Like Best of the Genres, each category will have five “nominees” (a.k.a my personal top five) with my “winner” (my favorite) in bold, followed by short reasoning as…

Continuing my look back at the best movies of 2021, I am now going to look at the best movies from each genre. I will be looking at the best foreign-language film, best comedy, and best action movie, along with other genres. Each category will have five “nominees” (a.k.a my personal top five) with my “winner” (my favorite) in bold, followed by short reasoning as to why I picked it the best. Here are my…

Comic book movies dominate the cinematic landscape today. It feels like every year more franchises and comic book characters are being brought to the big screen. Though 2020 was a very strange cinematic year, we still got a handful of comic book movies. Pandemic or not, comic book movies are here to stay. 2021 offered up eight comic book movies, which is close to the same number we got in 2019 and 2018 (we had…
