This week I was all set to present to you the LAMB community’s thoughts on The Circle and How To Be A Latin Lover. The only problem is, those films didn’t seem to appeal to pretty much anyone (not I can blame you) so we’ve had scarcely any reviews in for either! That’s fine though, because for the past few months I’ve been shamefully neglecting some of the smaller releases, which round about now are just gathering enough reviews to be considered for LAMBScores, so those are the movies we’ll be digging into today. As such, here’s a veritable buffet of views and opinions on a wide variety of some of this year’s smaller films:

If you want to get involved, here’s how LAMBScores work: Over in the LAMB Forums there’s a sub-board called LAMBScores. If you’ve written a review or recorded a podcast on a new release, find (or create) the thread there, and leave a link to your review, along with your site name and a score out of 5. Three weeks after the film has received a wide release the reviews will be collated and posted here, as long as there are at least five.
