The Death and Life of John F. Donovan is far from perfect, but still manages to be a fascinating attempt at exploring sexual identity, isolation and the consequences of fame.
The Fanatic, directed by Fred Durst and starring John Travolta and Devon Sawa, is campy, a bit ill-spirited at times, but I still couldn’t turn it off.

The suspense thriller gets a modern makeover in Nerve, which takes on both modern cyber culture and the cult of instant celebrity in a slickly produced, fast-paced crowd-pleaser aimed straight at the audience that’s the most likely to get it. Nerve is self-consciously cool to a fault, but it does know who its target audience is. Nerve is particularly timely in light of the current worldwide furor over Pokémon GO.
