To close out the year, we're taking a look back at some of our favorite movies of 2016. Check out what's in theaters now in our Film section, and go here for movie times!
In any given year of reviewing movies, I spend a lot of time sitting through money-covered crap struggling to discern why it was greenlit in the first place. When the only good thing about my evening is that the cost of a kids’ movie snack pack never seems to go up, I remind myself that watching garbage is the price I pay for the few movies I actually like, and the even fewer I genuinely love.
You guys, I LOVED La La Land, and you will too.
