An ill-advised actor’s passion project that’s little more than a dreadfully unfunny series of L.A. insider references. A total stinker.

“God is a Woman”
Suffers a bit from its slow pacing, but the documentary succeeds in capturing a true sense of culture and place while sparking an ethical debate.
“Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person”
An art house, vampire coming-of-age story that’s decidedly cool, impossibly hip, and unique in a way that’s never annoyingly quirky.
“Je’vida”
A heartbreaking yet empowering film about reclaiming your roots and your true self in a world that would rather ignore your existence.
“One Night With Adela”
A disturbing, violent, and furious tale of revenge-fueled rampage that will stay with you for a long, long time.
“The Line”
A tired, clichéd coming-of-age movie about college boys behaving very badly, this exercise in toxic masculinity tries too hard to find thought-provoking things to say about the importance about tradition, social status, and moral ambiguity.
