Desire, Hostility, Delusion is a movie that deals with some really heavy subject matter. And it does so with no skill or subtly or quality. Every single aspect of this movie is abjectly bad. 1.7/10

Reviews

This is the kind of forgettable movie where you spend the film’s whole runtime thinking of other, better films. 4.3/10

.45

If you want to see Milla Jovovich kiss some women, that does technically happen in .45. But it’s infrequent and feels disingenuous when it does happen. And the rest of the movie doesn’t exactly make up for that. 3.5/10

Reviews

As a remake and really, as a queer film for someone as jaded as me, The Wedding Banquet exceeded my expectations. This is a pitch-perfect dramedy and a really excellent remake that expands on the original’s themes in a way the original could not have done. 9.0/10

Reviews

Tormenting the Hen felt like the product of a writer’s retreat; calibrated and intentional but potentially out of touch with an audience beyond other creatives. 4.7/10

Reviews

The film is an artistic exploration of people at the fringes of a subculture. It crafts that subculture as something capable of great beauty under the direction of Monika Treut and her colour-saturated, Dutch angle-loving camera. 7.3/10

Prom Dates is like if Booksmart was designed by a Disney+ committee. That’s all you need to know, really. 5.5/10

Reviews

Scrubbers is an excellent piece of feminist filmmaking and a welcome alternative to women in prison exploitation. Its understanding and depiction of humanity is something that looks so easy under the eye of director and co-writer Mai Zetterling. 8.2/10

Reviews

This is the kind of story that is sometimes necessary to write to “get it out of your system” early in a creative career. It’s also the kind of story that’s going to have a lot more meaning for the writer than for any given audience. 2.2/10

Reviews

Sure, the script could’ve used another draft and the acting isn’t gonna win anyone an Oscar. But this is such a heartwarming, wonderfully ordinary romance that shows queer and trans joy at any age. 5.9/10
