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”!

“American Flake”
An earnest film with a few sharp insights into loss and growing up, but its drifting structure and slow pace ultimately cause it to lose momentum.
“Hekla”
Offers a heartfelt exploration of artistic persistence, self worth, and acceptance.
“Premarital”
A surprisingly charming and thoughtful comedy that’s critical without being cynical, and faith-oriented without feeling preachy.
“The Troll”
This sleek and engaging psychological thriller delivers a sharp look at obsession, cyber revenge, and the dangers of letting online validation define your identity.
“Memorizu”
A lyrical meditation on memory that unfolds with quiet patience and a rich accumulation of images, emotions, and fleeting moments.
