    Tell Me Who I Am

    No review documentary policy but some thoughts:

    ★★★

    These muscles were not made for violence they were made for cuddling.

    Heart Eyes is a mixed bag, but at least it knows how to have fun. It doesn’t take itself too seriously, which works in its favour, and there are some cool kills sprinkled throughout to keep things interesting. There are even moments of solid humour, but the film struggles with its identity—trying to be too many things at once, rom-com, slasher, horror, etc. and not quite nailing any…
