You Will Be Mine is a major plateau of a movie. There’s little rising action, we just exist at a state of 7/10 intensity through almost all of the runtime. 5.5/10
The Fish Child is basically a series of tragic and dramatic elements held together through good cinematography and performances. 6.1/10
While I understand some of the reasons Surrender wasn’t up to par (most of those reasons being money), at the end of the day it still ends up with Surrender not being a good movie. 2.0/10
Do I Love You? turned out exactly how the filmmakers had in mind. Whether or not the movie is for you, it is a movie that’s certain of its identity and does what it set out to do. 5.3/10
Clara’s Summer feels realistic but unimportant. The coming out narrative doesn’t offer anything new nor does the overall depiction of teens offer much depth or introspection. 5.3/10
I really urge you to check Hannah Free out. It’s a lovely film with a lot of heart 7.2/10
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
