Best Movies

It’s the Christmas season and with that comes Christmas movies. Of all the holidays, it feels like Christmas has the most movies and the most popular movies. Everyone has a favorite Christmas movie, whether you’re a traditionalist and like It’s a Wonderful Life or White Christmas, or you prefer a modern hit like Elf, or prefer to go for something different like Die Hard or Black Christmas, you have one that you love and that…

The 2021 Chicago International Film Festival kicks off this week and it is a film festival that I love with all my heart. This was the first festival that I attended back in 2008 and it is one I have attended every year since. This is a truly great festival that does not get the love and attention of some higher-profile festivals, but one that deserves to be mentioned as one of the best film…

The 2021 Fantasia Film Festival kicks off this week and it is a festival I am very excited to be covering once again. Last year was my first time covering the festival and I had a great time with it. The festival is full of diverse films from all around the world, focusing mostly on horror, thrillers, and science fiction films. This year’s festival, which is taking place in person and virtually, promises to be…

As insane as it sounds, 2021 is already halfway over, and what a year it has been. People are getting vaccinated, places are opening up, masks are slowly vanishing, and life seems to be getting almost back to normal. One of my favorite things about the world getting back to normal is that movie theaters are opening back up, and being able to see movies on the big screen once again. I have seen 127…

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 2021 Sundance Film Festival has officially come to a close and what a festival it was. Though being virtual and not being able to go to the mountains of Park City this year, I thought that the festival was really good this year.  The quality of films was excellent, the software the festival used to stream the films worked seamlessly, and the scheduling allowed you to see a lot of movies.  I was able…

The 2021 Sundance Film Festival kicks off this week and though this year’s festival might look a little different than most years, it is still bound to be a great festival.  What I like best about the movies at Sundance is that you never know what you are going to get.  You might get a trailer for a few movies but for the most part, you are going off the synopsis, the cast, and the…

2020 is officially over, thank goodness.  It was a very stressful year thanks to a global pandemic and too many social injustices to count, but we made it.  This was arguably the strangest year in cinematic history, as movie theaters were open, then closed, then partially opened again, and then mostly closed again, while major studios moved their film slate to 2021 and beyond.  There was also a large number of films that went to…

Writing about my favorite performances of the year is always one of my favorite pieces.  It makes me think back to all the great performances that I watched over the year and makes me want to rewatch the great movies these performances were in.  However, it is also a very stressful piece to make because there are performances I am forced to leave off my list, which really breaks my heart.  2020 is no exception…
