The film’s cold tone is more cerebral than emotional, and its slow, talky pace feels brutally suffocating.

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”!

“The Fantastic Four: First Steps”
It’s so nice to see a Marvel film that isn’t trying desperately to be forcefully stuffed into an extended universe timeline.
“Oh, Hi!”
A painfully honest (if uneven) film about the coping mechanisms we adopt when romantic fantasies start to crumble.
“Forge”
A well-made crime story about the art world and the gray areas of deception that lie within it.
“Dear Ms.: A Revolution in Print”
A compelling portrait of feminist media that honors the courageous women who dared to change the narrative.
“The Baltimorons”
Full of offbeat humor and genuine warmth, this well-told story is funny, heartfelt, and refreshingly simple.
