This is an above average small-budget indie film. It’s a way above average semi-autobiographic film. There’s a lot to celebrate here. Just ignore my overall rating. 6.0/10
The Sleepover does well on a smaller scale but it can’t exactly hang with the big dogs of high budget and ambition larger scale movies. 5.6/10
Walk With Me is about as interesting as its title. If this movie was a colour, it would be beige. 5.2/10
Baja Come Down just doesn’t give you enough reason to care about any of this. It fails to elevate this realistic story into something that feels like art that would move its audience. 2.8/10
The First Girl I Loved (2019) is not the most groundbreaking or ambitious film, especially in its visual choices. But this small-scale tragedy is tender enough to generate some emotion. 6.1/10
This movie is so bad that it made me respect cinema as a genre more, with the notable exception of The White Book which reconstructed my conceptualization of what a truly terrible film looks like. 1.4/10
I applaud The Exchange for all that it is, but I can’t honestly write that the movie was amazing or particularly innovative. It’s just a high school romance. 5.6/10
Behind Closed Doors covers so much ground in terms of plot and drama that could happen to gay women. But it completely fails to explore the possibility that being gay sometimes really does mean being happy. 2.6/10
Christmas at the Ranch is a middling example of a subgenre I don’t like. 4.9/10
