I’m glad that this film exists and that it was so successful depicting queer youth in such a harmless way. It’s hard to say I fully enjoyed it, though. As an adult, I am simply not the audience. 5.8/10
When Time Got Louder balances heart and actual knowledge and care in the depiction of a family with an autistic child. The solid centre means that even in the moments when the film flounders, the sum total of the film successful. 6.5/10
This is an overall middling movie. It’s competent, polished and had enough budget to tell its story. But the story it tells isn’t anything remotely new. 5.7/10
Nyad is one of those movies that when graded on the larger scale of all movies ever, is pretty middling. But for a WLW film, it’s above average. 6.6/10
WLW films found a new low with Between Us. And I really hope that I can take that bullet for you by reviewing the film so you don’t watch it personally. 1.9/10
The simultaneous high point and low point of Girls on Film is the line “you’re in a toxic relationship… with yourself.” This movie is not very good. 3.3/10
My problem with A Holiday I Do is that it wants to be a soulless, cookie-cutter pieces of rainbow capitalism. But it doesn’t even fully pull that off. 5.1/10
Showing beautiful women in a way that doesn’t feel overtly objectifying or gross is way, way too low of a bar for me to call this a good movie. 4.3/10
