This isn’t just a film about a terrible crime, but one that opens up a larger conversation about the world we live in.

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”!

“Cotton Candy Bubble Gum”
Had a lot of potential, but the glimmer of a good story is buried under a mountain of half-baked ideas and clumsy execution.
“Marlee Matlin: Not Alone Anymore”
An honest, well-rounded portrait of a woman who has constantly had to prove herself not just as an actor, but as an advocate for the Deaf community.
“The Friend”
Despite a meaningful story about the enduring power of companionship and the pain of loss, the film just can’t get a firm grasp on its desired sentiment.
“The Penguin Lessons”
A touching true story that’s anchored by Coogan’s natural charm and an unexpected but endearing animal sidekick.
“The Surrender”
Strikes the perfect tone for the kind of meaningful horror it’s going for, a mix of the supernatural and a deeply personal story about grief and family.
