In this special Friendsgiving Friday spotlight episode, we welcome guest Jermaine—movie buff, Facebook film critic, and Jane Addams alumni—to share his Top 15 Movies of 2025. From high-octane thrillers and sleeper hits to a few “wait, what?” picks, this list is full of surprises.

We dive into sequels that actually worked (Happy Gilmore 2?!), intense dramas like Sinners and Magazine Dreams, and underrated films that deserve way more love. Jermaine breaks down what moved him, what missed, and why some movies made him rethink what a "good film" even is.

Whether you’re into emotional storytelling, gritty visuals, wild plot twists, or just need a good movie night recommendation—you’ll want to hear this countdown.
