Hundreds of movies are released every year, yet only a few rises to the top while many others slip through without a chance to be properly evaluated by the audience.
Thankfully, with the advent of technology and streaming services, many movies are getting chances to be viewed again and have become accessible outside of theaters. It’s a win for both parties since movies are reevaluated and audiences discover dozens of movies that they have been sleeping on.
