Brotherhood of Justice (1986) 4/5 “The social justice message of demilitarized school zones in 1986 was way ahead of its time.” – Black Girl Nerds Jan 3, 2024 Full Review Orphan: First Kill (2022) 70% 2/5 “For hardcore fans of the original 'Orphan', 'First Kill’s' major tone shift from serious to campy might be more than just jarring, it might feel even exploitative and borderline offensive when taking the ableism into account. ” – Black Girl Nerds Aug 16, 2022 Full Review Prey (2022) 94% 3/5 “Thanks to the Indigenous context in 'Prey', the story develops overall themes of predator and prey dynamics from a new perspective, all the way through entire food chains.” – Black Girl Nerds Aug 11, 2022 Full Review Dirty Dancing (1987) 72% 5/5 “Johnny Castle might be featured as the romantic hero of 'Dirty Dancing'. But Baby’s father Dr. Houseman is the actual hero of the story, and his behavior is something in the movie that remains ahead of its time. ” – Black Girl Nerds May 23, 2022 Full Review The Matrix Resurrections (2021) 63% 5/5 “In Resurrections we see how Neo and Trinity have similarly become imaginary parents, raising several generations of Real Worlders through the memory of their heroic acts of martyrdom that did fundamentally change that world.” – Black Girl Nerds Dec 27, 2021 Full Review Share (2019) 83% “Share sets a groundbreaking new model for a fresh paradigm of post-assault parental behavior.” – Bitch Media Mar 15, 2021 Full Review Ma (2019) 55% “[Ma is] an antihero of the highest caliber...The catharsis was glorious.” – Bitch Media Mar 13, 2021 Full Review Halloween (2018) 79% “Halloween is [Laurie Strode's] love letter to all of us, wrapped in a most excellent slasher movie.” – Bitch Media Mar 11, 2021 Full Review Scream 3 (2000) 43% “Actually a scathing indictment of how women are treated behind-the-scenes in Hollywood.” – Bitch Media Mar 5, 2021 Full Review Promising Young Woman (2020) 90% 2/5 “For viewers like me expecting an actual rape revenge movie, this is your first hint that 'Promising Young Woman' isn't going to deliver in any expected way, and this complicates the film on several levels.” – Black Girl Nerds Feb 4, 2021 Full Review Freaky (2020) 84% “Freaky isn't just the future of inclusive, social justice horror either. Freaky is the future of the horror genre altogether.” – Bitch Media Dec 30, 2020 Full Review In Bruges (2008) 84% 3.5/5 “'In Bruges' is a fantastic Boschian nightmare with profound themes to go along with its dark comedy.” – Black Girl Nerds Jul 27, 2020 Full Review Tank Girl (1995) 45% 4/5 “With climate change going unchecked and drinking water shortages abounding, 'Tank Girl' predicted a totally possible post-apocalypse scenario.” – Black Girl Nerds Jul 21, 2020 Full Review Seven (1995) 84% 5/5 “Fincher's stylish filmmaking elevated each scene in such a way that the movie never felt exploitative in spite of the horrific plotlines.” – Black Girl Nerds Jun 17, 2020 Full Review The Wizard of Oz (1939) 98% 4/5 “The Wizard of Oz first enchanted audiences with its escapist fantasy, "there's no place like home" has become a multilayered statement for our current times.” – Black Girl Nerds May 24, 2020 Full Review Blue Valentine (2010) 87% 5/5 “Blue Valentine is much more than just the movie that birthed the "Feminist Ryan Gosling" meme.” – Black Girl Nerds May 24, 2020 Full Review Now and Then (1995) 33% 4/5 “Often referred to as the Stand By Me for girls - a most superficial comparison that in lots of ways cheapens both films, watering them down to gender stereotypes - Now and Then has its lighthearted moments of comedy as the girls' adventures unfold.” – Black Girl Nerds May 24, 2020 Full Review The Sixth Sense (1999) 86% 5/5 “The Sixth Sense has most importantly been reminding us of how powerful children can be as forces of knowledge, awareness, and healing, if only adults would actually listen to them.” – Black Girl Nerds May 24, 2020 Full Review Gremlins (1984) 86% 4/5 “Joe Dante's Gremlins quickly fixes itself as a rare Christmas horror movie classic” – Black Girl Nerds May 24, 2020 Full Review The Neverending Story (1984) 84% 5/5 “The film has an almost overwhelming number of messages. From colonization and dispossession of land to the apathy of adulthood as well as the power of new beginnings” – Black Girl Nerds May 24, 2020 Full Review The Blair Witch Project (1999) 86% 4/5 “The most remarkable thing about Donahue's work in this movie is that she is rarely seen on camera. She brings depth and emotional nuance to Heather's character through just her voicework and breathing.” – Black Girl Nerds May 24, 2020 Full Review The Big Lebowski (1998) 80% 3/5 “If The Dude is the representative figure of early 1990s America - a lazy white guy constantly breaking the law with impunity - it's no wonder his story remains relevant even now that the film is old enough to order its own White Russian.” – Black Girl Nerds May 24, 2020 Full Review Honey, I Shrunk the Kids (1989) 76% 4/5 “Using as many practical effects as possible, as well as the special effects of the day, director Joe Johnston's vision holds up incredibly well years later.” – Black Girl Nerds May 24, 2020 Full Review Do the Right Thing (1989) 92% 5/5 “Do the Right Thing remains an absolute master class in American cinema” – Black Girl Nerds May 24, 2020 Full Review Alien (1979) 93% 5/5 “Even if you aren't a horror or sci-fi fan, you cannot deny the paragon of cinematic mastery that is Alien.” – Black Girl Nerds May 24, 2020 Full Review
