Reaching For the Moon is not a major failure; it’s competent and all that. But I spent the whole movie wishing it was better.

The Killing of Sister George is so good. The fact that it sometimes crosses the line into somewhat campy melodrama just makes it all the more watchable. 9.1/10
At no point did Round Trip take these ordinary characters and turn them or the movie they inhabit into something extraordinary.
I am so, so thankful a lesbian directed Professor Marston and the Wonder Women. I think it would have been a different, worse movie had it not been. 8.5/10
Women Who Kill is a dark romantic comedy. That’s a lot of genres to try and juggle. The movie does so with moderate success. 5.8/10
With its languid pace and voice over narration about the nature of grief and whatnot, So Hard to Forget is a very film festival type of film. 6.6/10
Despite a good performance from Dylan Gelula, Kerem Sanga’s First Girl I Loved lets itself down by delving into topics too heavy for the movie to deal with. 5.4/10
Girlfriend is both the worst WLW movie I’ve seen in a while and yet also the most fun I’ve had watching a WLW movie in a while. 3.5/10
The main thing I want you to take away from my review of Butterfly Kiss is that Amanda Plummer is really good and she deserved a way better career than the one she got. 8.2/10
My main problem with the admittedly competent film is that it failed to grab and hold my entire attention.
