This is one of those movies that I give a negative review to because there’s just not enough positive to say about it. The film is a bit thin on the ground anyway, and what they do present is less than great. 3.8/10

I watched What It Was. And upon completion, I could not actually tell you what it was. 2.7/10
Between the Seasons is a small, sad and hopeful slice of life movie. 6.7/10
