After the boycott they suffered last year, leaving them without a television broadcast and replacing the usual turra in-person delivery ceremony through a kind of Twitter feed in which the winners were announced, The Golden Globes will return – or, at least, so it seems – this 2023 to its usual formatand we already have your list of nominations to whet your appetite.
As we usually do, in this article we leave you all the feature films with nominations that you can enjoy from now on streaming so that you finish completing your pools with as much knowledge as possible. To enjoy!
‘Everything at once everywhere’ (‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’)
Address: Daniels
Cast: Michelle Yeoh, Jamie Lee Curtis, Jonathan Ke Quan, James Hong, Anthony Molinari
The multiversal adventure of the year has not needed a heart-stopping budget to give shape to a feature film brimming with creativity, talent and technical and artistic genius. The Daniels’ second film perfectly combines humor, surrealism, martial arts and family drama, and you can indulge in its pleasures on Movistar+.
Criticism in Espinof: ‘Everything at once everywhere’: a brilliant multiversal oasis overflowing with creativity that makes its billionaire counterparts pale
‘Elvis’
Directed by: Baz Luhrman
Cast: Austin Butler, Tom Hanks, Olivia DeJonge, Richard Roxburgh, Helen Thomson
What would an awards season be without its corresponding musical biopic in which an interpreter is running to sweep all dates. This year the chosen one has been Austin Butler, who has given life to the King of Rock in the celebrated new work by the always interesting Baz Luhrmann, which you can see on Movistar+ and HBO Max.
Criticism in Espinof: ‘Elvis’ is not a big deal: its precious packaging hides a gift that we have seen before
‘Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio’ (‘Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio’)
Direction: Guillermo del Toro, Mark Gustafson
Cast: Gregory Mann, Ewan McGregor, Finn Wolfhard, Ron Perlman, David Bradley, Tilda Swinton, Cate Blanchett
Guillermo del Toro’s ‘Pinocchio’ is huge. There is no doubt that this resounding gem is one of the great movies of the year and probably the best when it comes to animated films. You can see just how insanely intelligent, artistically wonderful, and emotionally devastating she is on Netflix.
Criticism in Espinof: ‘Pinocchio by Guillermo del Toro’ is extraordinary: Netflix embellishes its catalog with a gloomy fable that reaffirms its creator as a master storyteller
‘Top Gun: Maverick’
Directed by: Joseph Kosinski
Cast: Tom Cruise, Miles Teller, Jennifer Connelly, Jon Hamm, Glen Powell, Ed Harris
Don’t say action, say ‘Top Gun: Maverick’. The great blockbuster of the year has uploaded a handful of actors to fighter jets to film real piloting maneuvers and serve us on a silver platter a show capable of taking your breath away visually that is not short on the emotional side either. To enjoy it at home you only need a subscription to Movistar+.
Criticism in Espinof: ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ is the perfect blockbuster: a jewel that blends the charm of the eighties with the most revolutionary action since ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’
‘Daggers in the back: The mystery of Glass Onion’ (‘Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery’)
Directed by: Rian Johnson
Cast: Daniel Craig, Edward Norton, Janelle Monáe, Kathryn Hahn, Leslie Odom Jr.
One of the last releases of the year that will sneak into the tops with the best of 2022 is the glorious return of detective Benoit Blanc, this time on the small screen, under the direction of a Rian Johnson in his sauce. Crime, humor in abundance, technical and narrative mastery and a stellar cast come together in this re-invention of the whodunnit that will arrive on Netflix on December 23 after its limited release in theaters.
Criticism in Espinof: ‘Daggers in the back: The mystery of Glass Onion’ is one of the best and funniest films of the year: the Netflix sequel has nothing to envy its predecessor
‘blonde’
Directed by: Andrew Dominic
Cast: Ana de Armas, Adrien Brody, Bobby Cannavale, Julianne Nicholson, Xavier Samuel
With ‘Blonde’ we find ourselves before one of the most controversial films of the year —sticks have rained down on it in all directions— and in a true cinematographic delight that has left us a lead performance by Ana de Armas to frame and an audiovisual experience as magnetic as it is extraordinary. It is available on Netflix.
Criticism in Espinof: ‘Blonde’ is one of the best films of the year: Ana de Armas transforms into Marilyn Monroe in a great Netflix antibiopic called to divide the public
‘Background noise’ (‘White Noise’)
Directed by: Noah Baumbach
Cast: Adam Driver, Greta Gerwig, Jodie Turner-Smith, Don Cheadle, Alessandro Nivola
After making audiences and critics fall in love and garnering a good handful of awards and nominations in the 2019-2020 awards season with ‘Marriage Story’, Noah Baumbach returns to the fray with his new feature film. In the, teams up again with Adam Driver and Greta Gerwig to model a black dramedy with hints of horror which is available in theaters this week and will hit Netflix on December 30.
Criticism in Espinof:
‘Background noise’: Netflix and A24 give Noah Baumbach free rein to reflect the neurosis of the pandemic in an ambitious exercise of self-indulgence
‘The angel of death’ (‘The Good Nurse’)
Directed by: Tobias Lindholm
Cast: Jessica Chastain, Eddie Redmayne, Nnamdi Asomugha, Kim Dickens
Based on the novel by Charles Graeber and on the real case that shook half the world, this true-crime rises as the typical interpretative showcasing vehicle for its leading duo; about Eddie Redmayne and Jessica Chastain who carry an excessively conventional story that you can see on Netflix.
Criticism in Espinof: ‘The angel of death’: Jessica Chastain and Eddie Redmayne shine in this disturbing drama based on real events that triumphs on Netflix
‘All Quiet on the Front’ (‘Im Westen nichts Neues’)
Directed by: Edward Berger
Cast: Felix Kammerer, Albrecht Schuch, Aaron Hilmer, Moritz Klaus, Edin Hasanovic, Daniel Brühl
The great war movie of 2022, and the best version of the genre since ‘1917’ comes from Germany and re-adapts with impeccable skill the homonymous novel by Erich Maria Remarque giving shape to a splendid anti-war plea formally and with a truly overwhelming tone. Edward Berger’s Surprise is available on the Netflix catalog.
Criticism in Espinof: ‘No news on the front’ is essential: Netflix proposes a brutal German response to ‘1917’ that does not adorn the atrocities of war
‘Good luck, Big Leo’ (‘Good Luck to You, Big Leo’)
Directed by: Sophie Hyde
Cast: Emma Thompson, Daryl McCormack, Isabella Laughland, Charlotte Ware
The years go by and Emma Thompson continues to be synonymous with quality and the occasional nomination in the corresponding awards season. On this occasion, the actress leads the cast of this dialogue-based dramedy that, with a great sense of humor, explores the sentimental —and sexual— life of a recently widowed retired schoolteacher. You have it in Movistar+.
‘rrr’
Address: SS Rajamouli
Cast: Ram Charan, Junior NTR, Alia Bhatt, Ajay Devgan, Prakash Raj, Shriya Saran
Almost without anyone expecting it, this bombing of Indian cinema has slipped into our lives with a hit of virality. The new film by SS Rajamouli offers three hours of excesses of all kindscrazy action, dance, music tough guys and a free and wild portrait of his country of origin during the 20s.

‘Argentine, 1985’
Address: Santiago Miter
Cast: Ricardo Darín, Peter Lanzani, Alejandra Flechner, Carlos Portaluppi, Norman Briski, Héctor Díaz
‘Argentina, 1985’, the brand new winner of the FIPRESCI prize in the last edition of the Venice Festival and the audience award in San Sebastián, he arrives at the Golden Globes after receiving a Goya nomination for the best Ibero-American film. You can enjoy his exploration of the Trial of the Juntas against high-ranking officers of the Argentine dictatorship on Amazon Prime Video.
Criticism in Espinof: ‘Argentina, 1985’ finds the perfect middle ground between judicial drama and comedy with an excellent Ricardo Darín
‘Red’ (‘Turning Red’)
Address: Domee Shi
Cast: Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Rosalie Chiang, Jordan Fisher, Sandra Oh, Ava Morse, James Hong
This year’s Pixar jewel has been unfairly doomed to a premiere on the small screen, but that does not mean that it has not meant one of the most fun, emotional and intelligent family movie experiences of 2022. You can enjoy it on Disney+.
Criticism in Espinof ‘Red’ is a real gem: Pixar unleashes its most playful side in a high-voltage fantastic comedy unfairly relegated to Disney+
