The simultaneous high point and low point of Girls on Film is the line “you’re in a toxic relationship… with yourself.” This movie is not very good. 3.3/10

The pacing and focus of this film is just not where it needs to be. 3.6/10
The Light Touch might have the visuals of a travel commercial, but it has a script that isn’t even good enough to compare to softcore porn. 1.9/10
Showing beautiful women in a way that doesn’t feel overtly objectifying or gross is way, way too low of a bar for me to call this a good movie. 4.3/10
There’s nothing about this movie that would make me recommend it specifically over so many similar movies that are more unique in some way or other. 4.7/10
I’m remarkable uninspired by The Retreat. I’ve seen every single aspect of this film multiple times in other places. 4.5/10
It’s a huge step up for a Jess Franco film to be boring. Usually, his films are incompetent. That makes this easily objectively one of his stronger films that I’ve seen. 4.6/10
The ambition of Book of Monsters far exceeds its practical realities. This isn’t just a horror movie, but a splatter-heavy creature feature. And unfortunately, Book of Monsters is very, very cheap. 4.1/10
Life Blood is a movie that feels defensively half-assed. I get a real vibe of, “your criticisms can’t hurt me because I wasn’t even trying anyway” from most of the film. Which is a shame, because I don’t hate all of the ideas in Life Blood. But geez, the execution was shit. 3.7/10
Jagged Mind isn’t nearly as thrilling as it should be. The story doesn’t live up to the premise. And it’s further let down by some technical weaknesses. 4.8/10
