With everything that’s happening right now it’s not exactly the time for a movie such as this. But as has become apparent to me, it is never gonna be the time for this. And I fear that Kiss Me Kosher only gets less funny as time goes on. 5.0/10

Jules of Light and Dark has much in common with its protagonist. Both are vague, aimless and don’t evoke any strong emotion in me as a viewer. 3.6/10
having seen numerous of these toxic female relationship films, Heartbeast’s artistic merits and gripping atmosphere kept me on the edge of my seat. That’s what I want a thriller to do and that’s often something I miss from this subgenre. 6.7/10
Over Easy shows a strong understanding of what is realistically possible for a film with a small budget. It is a small, focused story with funny moments. However, I worry the story might actually be too small to fill out a feature film. 5.1/10
The best thing I can say about it is that it didn’t monumentally fuck anything up. I’ve seen my fair share of movies that fail to meet that requirement. However, not fucking up doesn’t mean Us x Her did anything particularly good, either. 4.6/10
Love Is a Map is a decent indie movie. Shame it left almost no memorable impression on me. 5.2/10
Showing one’s real story is a respectable goal, especially when it’s something as frequently sensationalized as polyamory. But Petit Mal is so specific it doesn’t work as a portrait of polyamory. It only functions as a portrait of Ruth Caudeli’s specific relationship. 4.5/10
I cannot say the film is bad necessarily, but it’s just really something I didn’t need to see. Both because I’ve already seen other Flunk movies and because I’m not at a point yet where I want to see a romance that’s directly regarding the Covid-19 pandemic. 5.1/10
