Rifkin's Festival 2020
At least mildly amusing so it’s a step up from his last few, but truthfully he could’ve made this in 1979. There’s not a single note here that doesn’t feel 40 years old.

Buster and Billie 1974
Unfortunately that sort of reminds me of a lot of gay movies from the 90s where the first hour plus was devoted to sort of a tepid romance, not offensively bad but nothing spectacular, then when the unthinkable conflict happens around minutes 75 it somehow raises the stakes in an unearned dimension; all of the sudden we’re supposed to be very invested for the last 15 or so minutes of the movie. It’s thoughtfully directed and well acted, everyone was giving it their all but it’s an unreconcilable tone that even some very full frontal male nudity couldn’t solve.

Dark Habits 1983
I just can't help but feel that a movie about heroin-shooting lesbian nuns providing refuge to a showgirl on the run from the mob should've been more entertaining.

A Sound of Thunder 2005
What I Wanted: A loose, but faithful and well meaning adaptation of the Ray Bradbury short story of the same name.
What I Got: Shit on.
