The Plague (2025) 97% EDIT “Polinger makes an auspicious feature debut with his potent psychological thriller,” – Gay City News Dec 23, 2025 Full Review Night in West Texas (2025) EDIT “Reyos’ story is a shameful travesty of justice. Unfortunately, Esquenazi’s film is an oddly underwhelming feature. It could have been more potent as a documentary short.” – Gay City News Dec 10, 2025 Full Review A Few Feet Away (2025) EDIT “Watching Santi, an innocent, looking for connection is a sweet, sexy and sad experience, but ultimately a satisfying one. Swipe right on "A Few Feet Away."” – Philadelphia Gay News Dec 10, 2025 Full Review Little Trouble Girls (2025) 98% EDIT “There is something hypnotic about "Little Trouble Girls." Just as 16-year-old Lucia (Jara Sofija Ostan) quietly observes things, viewers, too, are pulled into her orbit, scrutinizing every look, every sound, and every gesture.” – Gay City News Dec 3, 2025 Full Review Merrily We Roll Along (2025) 95% EDIT “It is gratifying that "Merrily We Roll Along" has finally beaten its cursed production history with this hugely enjoyable stage version, which has been lovingly brought to the big screen.” – Philadelphia Gay News Dec 3, 2025 Full Review Christy (2025) 67% EDIT ““Christy” delivers a one-two punch in that the boxing scenes are highlights...and then depicts the horror of what happens in her relationship...in shocking detail. Viewers will no doubt root for Christy as she fights for her life in and out of the ring.” – Philadelphia Gay News Nov 7, 2025 Full Review Rebuilding (2025) 93% EDIT “Rebuilding is unfailingly sincere—it could easily have been a made-for-TV movie—but it is both moving and benign. ” – MovieJawn Oct 23, 2025 Full Review Promised Sky (2025) 80% EDIT “Promised Sky is very quotidian as each character struggles to find a sense of autonomy in a world designed to oppress them... [T]his marvelous film that shines a light on lives that often go unseen.” – MovieJawn Oct 23, 2025 Full Review The President's Cake (2025) 100% EDIT “Addressing issues of class, bureaucracy, patriarchy and authoritarianism, Hadi never makes his messages feel heavy-handed. Moreover, The President’s Cake ends with a powerful scene that resonates.” – MovieJawn Oct 23, 2025 Full Review Ghost Boy (2025) 100% EDIT “Ghost Boy provides uplift as Martin’s condition improves and he finds love. But it is the messages about how the sick and disabled are treated that make his story valuable.” – MovieJawn Oct 23, 2025 Full Review Dead Giveaway (2025) EDIT “Writer/director Ian Kimble’s debut feature Dead Giveaway—expanded from his short—is more playful than scary, which works in its favor. ” – ScullyVision Oct 23, 2025 Full Review Blue Moon (2025) 90% EDIT “Hawke makes his character’s vulnerability palpable here, and he engenders pity like a despondent and drunk gay uncle.... [He] commits fully, recklessly, and relentlessly to Hart’s doomed hopefulness.” – Gay City News Oct 18, 2025 Full Review Blue Film (2025) 90% EDIT “Stunning... shattering... [Kieron] Moore gives a star-making performance.” – Philadelphia Gay News Oct 14, 2025 Full Review Kiss of the Spider Woman (2025) 77% EDIT “Kiss of the Spider Woman has moments of seduction and is at times is spellbinding—most notably in the scenes between cellmates Luis Molina (out gay Tonatiuh) and Valentin (Diego Luna).” – San Francisco Bay Times Oct 14, 2025 Full Review Modern Whore (2025) EDIT “An informative and entertaining Canadian documentary about Andrea Werhun, who wants to normalize sex work.” – Gay City News Sep 11, 2025 Full Review Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale (2025) 91% EDIT “Long live “Downton Abbey!” It had a good run. Thankfully, “Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale” provides a fine and fond sendoff. ” – Philadelphia Gay News Sep 9, 2025 Full Review The Threesome (2025) 77% EDIT “The Threesome is a passable time filler. While it offers a few chuckles and some heartfelt moments, it also feels remarkably vanilla.” – Philadelphia Gay News Sep 4, 2025 Full Review Honey Don't! (2025) 45% EDIT “Honey Don’t! is so full of red herrings, it is more film rouge than film noir. But director Ethan Coen, who also co-wrote the screenplay with his wife, Tricia Cooke, makes all the episodes interesting even if they don’t all add up.” – Philadelphia Gay News Aug 19, 2025 Full Review Who Killed Teddy Bear? (1965) EDIT “This dramatic thriller about sexual perversity, directed by Joseph Cates, is astonishing in so many ways that it has to be seen to be believed.” – Gay City News Aug 5, 2025 Full Review Daughter's Daughter (2024) EDIT “Beautifully filmed if leisurely paced, Daughter’s Daughter is a tender and absorbing mama-drama.” – Gay City News Jul 11, 2025 Full Review Queens of Drama (2024) 86% EDIT “Queens of Drama is destined to become a cult film. This appealing drama has a sparkly, edgy, and at times campy vibe. Some fun pop songs belie its low-budget nature and strong queer sensibility. ” – Philadelphia Gay News Jul 11, 2025 Full Review Backside (2025) EDIT “Backside is a terrific slice-of-life documentary that sheds light on a world that is not widely seen.” – MovieJawn Jul 11, 2025 Full Review Sally (2025) 88% EDIT “Ride gets some overdue love and even more respect with this flattering portrait.” – Philadelphia Gay News Jun 19, 2025 Full Review Honeyjoon (2025) EDIT “The magic of the lovely, understated Honeyjoon is the way is shows that happiness, like grief, comes in waves.” – MovieJawn Jun 17, 2025 Full Review Underland (2025) 100% EDIT “Visually striking...Underland is a rewarding experience for armchair archaeologists.” – MovieJawn Jun 10, 2025 Full Review
