Sonja is ultimately a competent but unremarkable coming of age film. 5.2/10

Young and Wild is not a perfect film. I certainly have mixed opinions on it. But for all its faults, one I am certain of is that this film would have been 50 times worse had it not been directed by a woman. 6.2/10
Because I happen to love giallo films, I enjoyed Amuck!. But can I objectively say it’s a good movie? No.
Overall rating: 6.0/10
While I commend the film for its sex positivity, not all of French Twist’s humour and general attitude works 25 years after its release. 5.4/10
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
