Watching every movie that comes out in a year is simply not possible for anybody, but I’ve seen at least 184 movies in 2022 and recommend 22 movies released in 2022 in the latest podcast episode of ‘Abstract AF’. They are in no particular order and are available to watch on streaming platforms. The list doesn’t include any superhero movies… because well, if you were a fan, you’d have or will watch them anyway.
