Reaching For the Moon is not a major failure; it’s competent and all that. But I spent the whole movie wishing it was better.

At no point did Round Trip take these ordinary characters and turn them or the movie they inhabit into something extraordinary.
Women Who Kill is a dark romantic comedy. That’s a lot of genres to try and juggle. The movie does so with moderate success. 5.8/10
Despite a good performance from Dylan Gelula, Kerem Sanga’s First Girl I Loved lets itself down by delving into topics too heavy for the movie to deal with. 5.4/10
My main problem with the admittedly competent film is that it failed to grab and hold my entire attention.
Had Drool made Imogen the main character, I think I would have loved it. As it stands, Drool is a seriously mixed bag. 5.2/10
Even grading on the curve of TV movies, An Unexpected Love feels extremely predictable and has little new to offer. 5.0/10
Better Than Chocolate’s depiction of queer characters and the queer community is a decade ahead of its time. The bad news is the movie is 20 years old now so it does feel at least a decade out of date. 6.0/10
f you just need a movie to kill 90 minutes, Eloise is a good option. There’s nothing particularly original about the film but there’s nothing terrible here either. 5.5/10
AWOL has an unsatisfactory ending to an average story. At no point did the film rise about being exceedingly average.
