I applaud Big Dreams in Little Hope. With the budget and technology available to them, they still turned out a pretty solid comedy. 5.6/10

Reviews

We Will Never Belong is a huge success. Director Amelia Eloisa has constructed not just characters but a multi-sensory world. Her self-assured cinematography and focus on sensory experiences makes this film beautiful and emotional. 7.6/10

Reviews

There are moments of real greatness here. But the overall plot of Butch Jamie is a bit too standard. And regrettably, its budget is small enough that it does affect my enjoyment. 5.2/10

As I so often say, being gay isn’t enough. Or, not for me as an audience. You gotta be gay AND interesting. And The Competitor is only the first one. 4.2/10

Virgin Machine is a fascinating artistic snapshot of feminist and filmmaking in West Germany; a country that would cease to exist less than two years after Virgin Machine’s release. 6.4/10

With comedies, it always comes down to the simple question, “is it funny?” And Kiss Me! isn’t funny. 4.2/10

BBC TV movies are of a solid, uniform quality. Daphne is no exception. This is a good movie. But that’s as far as I’m willing to go. 6.4/10

Reviews

If you need something cute to spend less than 50% of your brain power on, Touch might be the movie for you. 5.6/10

Reviews

In a mere 80 minutes, My First Summer features good directing and some lead teenagers who actually have unique experiences and personality traits. 7.2/10

Reviews

Sister Sister is very high on entertainment value. But don’t expect much intelligence nor focus on lesbianism. This movie understands thriller beats better than most. But its execution of those beats is uneven at best. 5.6/10
