The Chambermaid Lynn wants two things. It desperately wants to be Amelie. It also wants you to take it completely seriously. Those two wants are directly contradictory. 5.2/10
A Perfect Ending is a well-performed drama with enough intelligence and talent to portray topics of WLW sexuality and death without falling into one of the many pitfalls both those plots have. 7.6/10
Yes or No 2: Come Back To Me is just one cliche after another, whether that be romance cliches or overused jokes. I found it charming in the first movie but this time around, I did not.
Appropriate Behavior is one of the best WLW comedies I’ve seen in a while. It’s also one of the best WLW comedies full stop. 9/10
I just don’t understand why this movie about teenage girls lacked so much insight into their subject matter and didn’t seem to do anything to solve it such as talking to real life teenage girls. 3.9/10
Despite being almost two and a half hours, Beyond the Hills skips the romance aspect of a WLW movie and jumps right to the tragedy. 8.7/10

Booksmart is a very successful, modern high school comedy complete with a diverse cast of characters and an emphasis on female relationships. 9/10
lush walks a line between grounding this movie in its country of origin while also showing the universality of many things the main character experiences. 6.9/10
