Brain on Fire – Summary/ Review (with Spoilers)
Brain on Fire is a growth movie. Its subject matter isn’t handled strongly, but if you have followed its lead, Chloe Grace Moretz, you see growth. That is pretty much the main thing you’ll get out of this. Well, and some awareness of what is Anti-NMDA Receptor Encephalitis.

The Drowning – Summary/ Review (with Spoilers)
Upon watching the trailer for The Drowning, I was pretty sure someone re-wrote Twisted. After watching the film, I can definitely say Twisted, at least the first half, blows this out of the water.

Our Lovers (Nuestros amantes) – Summary/ Review (with Spoilers)
One of the many preconceived notions I have about films is that non-English ones are more daring. Usually, this is in terms of violence[note]At least for films I take an interest in.[/note].

Joshua: Teenager vs. Superpower – Summary/ Review (with Spoilers)
When many think of protest and demonstrations in the modern age, Hong Kong isn’t perhaps what first comes to mind. In America, you’d think of the #BlackLivesMatter movement. In parts of the middle east, perhaps the Arab Spring. But when it comes to Asia, while they also have human rights issues, they don’t necessarily get…

Being 17 (Quand on a 17 ans) – Summary/ Review (with Spoilers)
For half of Being 17, it seems aimless and quite boring. Yet, in the 2nd half, just as it seems to be going somewhere, it ends before you can finally say “This is interesting.”

War Machine – Summary/ Review (with Spoilers)
War Machine brings little to no nuance to the post-9/11 war sub-genre. It is a bloated film about one general’s ego and his belief the Afghan war wasn’t won yet because he wasn’t there.
