The ambition of Book of Monsters far exceeds its practical realities. This isn’t just a horror movie, but a splatter-heavy creature feature. And unfortunately, Book of Monsters is very, very cheap. 4.1/10

Sex is weird. Sexuality is perhaps weirder. The Book of Gabrielle understands and even celebrates that through its lead character’s stories and experiences. 6.6/10
I’m deeply biased against dramedies. As with so many films in this genre, I feel like trying to thread the needle of being both drama and comedy ended up with a movie neither as funny or as dramatic as it had the potential to be. 5.6/10
This is an all-around success. Nikki Si’ulepa and Rachel Aneta Wills found a way to make their personal love story universal and entertaining. 6.5/10
This is a hilarious, inappropriate comedy with a serious bite. It’s shocking, laugh-out-loud funny and at times, batshit insane. I loved it. 8.3/10
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
For a film to rate below a 3/10 for me, I need to think to myself, “wow, I hate this!” at least once while watching. I had that thought dozens of times watching 69 + 1.
1.8/10
I applaud Big Dreams in Little Hope. With the budget and technology available to them, they still turned out a pretty solid comedy. 5.6/10
