Review of The Journey (2017)

By Maryann Johanson (2,701) for Flick Filosopher (2,694) on 14 Jun 2017

Review of The Wedding Invitation (2017)

By Maryann Johanson (2,701) for Flick Filosopher (2,694) on 11 Jun 2017

By Maryann Johanson (2,701) for Flick Filosopher (2,694) on 01 Jun 2017

By Maryann Johanson (2,701) for Flick Filosopher (2,694) on 31 May 2017

Review of Baywatch (2017)

By Maryann Johanson (2,701) for Flick Filosopher (2,694) on 25 May 2017

A beach-slap to anyone with a brain. Embodies everything that is wrong with Hollywood today. It is proudly dumb. It is proudly sexist…

By Maryann Johanson (2,701) for Flick Filosopher (2,694) on 22 May 2017

Review of Alien: Covenant (2017)

By Maryann Johanson (2,701) for Flick Filosopher (2,694) on 08 May 2017

Review of Unlocked (2017)

By Maryann Johanson (2,701) for Flick Filosopher (2,694) on 04 May 2017

There's stuff in this spy thriller that's fresh, and lots that's familiar, but Noomi Rapace using her brains and brawn to fight bad guys is…

Review of Mindhorn (2016)

By Maryann Johanson (2,701) for Flick Filosopher (2,694) on 04 May 2017

Review of Lady Macbeth (2016)

By Maryann Johanson (2,701) for Flick Filosopher (2,694) on 27 Apr 2017

By Maryann Johanson (2,701) for Flick Filosopher (2,694) on 27 Apr 2017

Lesbian and not-quite-sure-if-she's-a-lesbian have a weekend fling. Sometimes unintentionally hilarious, this is little more than soft-core porn…
