Lambscores: Landline, Okja, Detroit, Death Note

We’ve reached the point in the year when pretty much no new movies got released, or at least none that warranted enough reviews to be written, so I’ve delved back through the year to find some of the smaller releases that have clocked up more numbers since their initial release. As such, today we’ll be seeing what the LAMB community has to say about Detroit, Okja, Death Note and Landline. Oh, by the way, this will be the last Lambscores post for a few weeks. I’m taking a little break, but will be back at the end of October to round up all the releases we’ll have missed out on between now and then. Anyway, here’s today’s scores:

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.
