I can certainly see how this trendy, romantic story might appeal to people. But in this case, I guess I’m not people, because I personally didn’t enjoy what The Venus Effect presented me. 5.2/10
Anaïs is an engaging portrait of a very messy woman with very messy relationships. While its writing isn’t as strong as The Worst Person in the World, the visuals and aesthetics of the film make it a more than pleasant sit. 6.7/10
As I so often say, being gay isn’t enough. Or, not for me as an audience. You gotta be gay AND interesting. And The Competitor is only the first one. 4.2/10

Everything Will Be Fine feels like the future. This film is youthful, modern and effortlessly progressive. 6.5/10
