w is time for the disclaimer that I note every time I make a list like this. These lists of my favorites, the “best”, my most disappointing, the “worst” are all subjective, and they are only from the movies I have seen. I have watched over 250 movies last year, but not all from the 2022 calendar year. It is a delicate thing to blend wanting to catch up on old classics and wanting to stay current.
Below are my subjective opinions for the first best movies I have seen released in the calendar year of 2022.

Ranking The Mission: Impossible Films: #7 – Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning (2023)
There is a lot happening in Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning. One could argue that there is too much going on.
Ranking The Mission: Impossible Films: #8 – Mission: Impossible II (2000)
Much maligned as the worst of the Mission: Impossible franchise, Mission: Impossible II doesn’t do itself any favors upon rewatch.
