There are a few incredible things we know for certain about Poor Things. One: This is Emma Stone’s weirdest and most exciting movie yet, and she turns in a fabulous performance.

The movies were officially back in 2023, and while every genre had solid offerings, it was really a big year for action movies.

The sudden passing of Paul Walker sent shockwaves throughout the entertainment industry, with many mourning the beloved actor.
