Intellectually stimulating but emotionally flat, the documentary relies too much on condescending, heavy-handed commentary.

FANATICAL ABOUT FILM!
Movies are our religion and the theater our church. Our gods are named Tarantino, Anderson and Scorsese.
We attend services 3-4 times a week and take our communion in the form of soda and popcorn. We offer up these reviews in hopes of pleasing our deities.
Please share your own comments on our reviews. We encourage all forms of respectful debate. We are, after all, “Fanatical About Film”!

“Nika & Madison”
A timely and unsettling look at systemic racism and police brutality faced by two Indigenous women.
“Love + War”
Addario’s story is both unique and universally resonant, especially for women navigating the push and pull between career and family.
“Disposable Humanity”
Horrific, informative, and oddly cathartic, this documentary unfolds the horrible truths that have been long buried in German history.
“Irkalla: Dreams of Gilgamesh”
This contemporary tragedy paints a searing, poetic portrait of Iraqi children navigating impossible circumstances.
“This Too Shall Pass”
A spirited, nostalgic, and big-hearted ride that reminds you what it felt like to be young, lost, and free for a weekend.
