I really enjoyed this movie. I’ve Heard the Mermaids Singing is a quick sit with likeable characters. I love its messages about kindness and also the subjectivity of art and critique. 7.8/10

Ghosted is one of those bad movies where throughout most of the film I just kept asking, what is the point of this movie? 3.8/10
or a young person who’s not deathly allergic to the word daddy like I am, they might actually really like this movie. Or they might find it beyond annoying. 5.9/10
Maybe Lez Bomb represents some sort of equality we have been missing. Perhaps true equality is even LGBTQ* people getting broad, TGI Friday-style comedies with overdone joke set ups. 5.0/10
In a lot of ways, this movie more forward-thinking than lots of WLW films released in the following two decades. That Tender Touch is a surprisingly nuanced film for the time. 5.9/10
I’ve noticed that British movies are particularly good at two things: dramatic love confessions and passive aggression. A Village Affair is a standard British TV movie that wisely features both of these things. 5.2/10
Liberty’s Secret is a movie made by and starring Musical Theatre Kids. Each of the cast and the movie itself is very earnest, very perky and a little amateur. But of course, they’re not Musical Theatre Kids. They’re Musical Theatre Adults so that’s less charming still. 3.1/10
The Hours is a great and heartbreaking movie. Full of great dialogue, great performances and difficult themes, it is an emotional, sometimes heartbreaking film. 9/10
Alto is a flat, dull movie lacking so much originality that it’s actually sapping my ability to come up with a clever and original opener. 3.7/10
Made during the indie/Sundance film festival boom of the 1990’s, High Art is an incredibly polished, precise piece of work. 8/10
