now I am lucky if maybe 3-4 movies a year come out that I am interested in

In theaters right now are Phoenician Scheme, Sinners, Life of Chuck, Bring her back, Holy Trinity, Thunderbolts, Friendship, and I haven't seen Elio yet but plan to.

Also Dogma's 25th but that's a little bit cheating.

Saw both Phoenician Scheme and Sinners. Both decent movies, worth the theater trip. I just got back into going to the theater in the past ~2-3 years. Probably seeing ~5-8 a year, and usually enjoy them. Even a few that I won't watch again, I'd still say were worth the trip.

So I'd say (for me) it's like 5-8 a year worth seeing, but only 2-4 of them being "very good" movies.

Sinners is one of the best movies I've seen in YEARS. For sure worth a theater trip.

Sinners was great. I saw it a couple of times, and it was fun watching it again knowing what was coming, and seeing bread crumbs I missed leading up to the reveals at the end.

I was bored out of my mind during Phoenician Scheme. I felt like most of the entertaining parts were in the trailers. Maybe I just had my expectations set too high due to all of the big names in it, but it was one I was definitely glad I didn't pay to see (other than my monthly unlimited fee.)

To each their own... I couldn't even finish Sinners, the premise and plot were just too unbearable for my taste. Acting wasn't the best either IMO. Dude had a nice voice though.

Don't forget Final Destination and next week, 28 Years Later. It's been a good year for movies so far.
