Night Comes On is unusual in how sensitively it treats this story of criminal youth and revenge. And there’s something extremely admirable there. But when it comes down to personal preference, I’ve never been one for subtlety. 6.7/10

Kate Can’t Swim has various positives and a basic level of competence which I admire, but can’t recommend. This is one of those instances of there just not being enough here. 4.8/10
Fantasy of the Girls has no right to go as hard as it does. The plot is something you could find on a Nickolodeon show for pre-teens. But the handling of this plot gives the film such an air of intensity and maturity. 7.4/10
As a romantic drama, More Than Friends had so much drama it stopped working as a romance. 3.1/10
This is simply not a successful film or story and no amount of lesbian lead characters is going to change that. And I’m still pissed off that I can’t tell if it’s supposed to be a period piece or not. 2.3/10
I didn’t realize how little representation there is for messy, mean sapphic women until I watched Girls Like Magic. Mean queers to the front, this movie is for you. 6.6/10
Mixed Messages left me deeply unmoved. I want to celebrate what this movie stands for but its execution was really poor. This was a truly tedious 75 minutes to sit through. 1.9/10
It makes it all the stranger that in a film so lacking in overall quality that there is a relationship that features such extraordinary chemistry from the two actresses. Sadly, the scenes between Zoe and Shelby don’t make up enough of the movie to drag Kiss Me out of being a pretty bad movie. 3.5/10
With comedies, it always comes down to the simple question, “is it funny?” And Kiss Me! isn’t funny. 4.2/10
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
