Battle of the Sexes needed to hit a little harder to achieve its Academy Awards ambitions. 8.1/10
Month: <span>January 2021</span>
Comedies like Girl Gets Girl are the exactly reason why the word “zany” was invented. 5.0/10
You and I is very bad. The film is tacky in a way that dates it but also makes it a timeless example of bad taste. 3.2/10
There are Canadian films and then there are CANADIAN films. Revoir Julie, with its bilingualism, actors you’ve never heard of, small-town setting and conflict that can be described as moderate at best falls firmly into the latter category. 6.3/10
Freeway 2 will not be to everyone’s taste but for all its flaws, I had a great time watching its gritty insanity. 6.2/10
There’s an honesty and realism I find in Happy End that American films with similar themes lack. 7.7/10
Pimp is a simple and offensive film that exploits black people and is overtly sexist towards women. 4.7/10
If you’re gonna make a movie with poly themes, do me a favour and don’t have it end with a return to a two person heterosexual relationship. Like, what’s even the point? 5.8/10
While it’s a TV movie so it’s not exactly Oscar-bait, If These Walls Could Talk 2 is at least it is a solid piece of Emmy-bait. 7.4/10
