Some of these summer movies were creepy, and some of them can Smurf off.

Summer is over now, and that sucks. But we’ve had some fun moments, whether or not we went to the movies. I, myself, was given some shirts promoting “The Phoenician Scheme” and “Weapons.” Here are my two short lists of the best and worst I have seen this summer. And like my annual Midway Point, these choices aren’t final, and December is when you’ll know the real winner and losers.

The Best Movies of This Summer

5.) “The Phoenician Scheme”

Wes Anderson’s latest has some mixed reactions from movie goers, but I still thought it was funny, stylish, and wacky enough to make a worthy addition to his filmography. And I still think Michael Cera delivers the best performance in the film as an insect teacher who is more than meets the eye.

4.) “The Life of Chuck”

This movie version of Stephen King’s book is a questionable one. Is the universe somehow connected to the title character (Tom Hiddleston)? Or is it all in his imagination? That’s something I enjoyed pondering.

3.) “Sorry, Baby”

Eva Victor has already proven herself to have a voice in cinema. As the writer, director, and star, she delivers on the comedy and pathos with more sentimentality and less disturbing images. That’s obviously for the best, because it probably would have turned people off, and even I don’t have the stomach to see what happens.

2.) “28 Years Later”

Danny Boyle and Alex Garland’s latest collaboration on this zombie franchise is worthy of a brilliant trip down memory lane. Not only are the zombie chases exciting and scary and the performances are universally excellent, but it raises really good questions. Can a baby born from a pregnant zombie still be a human baby? I think it can.

1.) “Weapons”

This was probably the biggest horror hit of the summer, but I already loved this movie before the box office receipts. In fact, in my review, it was very hard to praise and talk about this movie without spoiling the most important details. I think it might have something to do with an old lady. You bet it does.

The Worst Movies of This Summer

5.) “Jurassic World: Rebirth”

I’ve recently seen an Instagram post of SpongeBob taking off his pants and running in the first “Jurassic Park” movie that was more exhilarating than anything going on in this sequel. And I think we should take villains and mercenaries off the menu.

4.) “The Pickup”

If Eddie Murphy looks like he’s not having fun, then I’m not having fun. If Pete Davidson and Keke Palmer have zero chemistry, then they need lessons from Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan or Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock.

3.) “Fountain of Youth”

Guy Ritchie’s latest adventure movie almost makes me want to apologize to the new sidekicks of “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.” Well, almost. This one has John Krasinski and Natalie Portman as estranged siblings (one of them more annoying than the other), who must look for Bigfoot. No wait! I mean the Fountain of Youth.

2.) “Smurfs”

I’m glad you kids were more into “KPop Demon Hunters,” “The Bad Guys 2” and “Elio” than this piece of Smurf. Only relying on Rihanna’s talents to sell the movie and treating these blue creatures like IPs, it’s just as bad as “Space Jam: A New Legacy.” I’m glad LeBron had nothing to do with this.

1.) “Hurry Up Tomorrow”

This is probably the worst thing The Weeknd has ever done. He’s one of the best singers and has made one of the best cameos in “Uncut Gems,” but in this movie version of his album, he gives bad acting and writes Jenna Ortega in a demeaning role as a crazed fan who acts like some kind of a therapist. Her methods wouldn’t even help out Robert DeNiro’s character in “Analyze This.”
