An ambitious and fascinating biopic that’s sometimes a little too clever for its own good.

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”!

“Finding Emily”
A breezy, cute, and funny charmer that will resonate with anyone who remembers what it feels like to fall for someone before you actually know them.
“The Brink of War”
Although it suffers from horrible miscasting, this is mostly a tense, thoughtful portrait of diplomacy that makes history feel immediate.
“Katy Perry: The Lifetimes Tour – Live from Paris”
A high energy concert film that delivers pure pop escapism and some fabulous, glitter-filled fun.
“If I Tell You”
Explores the painful aftermath of family secrets, questioning whether silence truly protects children or only deepens fractured trust and unresolved trauma.
“The Snare”
Explores survival, loyalty, and whether those trapped by circumstance ever truly have control over their own lives.
