Oh ok, the school of the lame and mediocre, i'll rank them accordingly.
1. Brokeback Mountain - 7.5 Used to think more highly of it. But it didn't age well for me. The story felt like sentiment at the time, and society has kind of subtlely evolved since 2005 to where that type of sentimentality over some sad guitar is no longer as effective. But that being said, it's still a solid, well told story. It starts better but runs a little out of story once Ennis starts to meander around town alone lamenting over Jack. I think Ang Lee has overall better films, but I'm still glad this exists, for discussion and point-in-time references. Not that I consider every film here lame or mediocre.
2. Blue is the Warmest - 7.5 I think it's good, but it's fairly conventionally told and it didn't end up doing anything to shift cinema. Adele definitely shines, I don't know if she's a one-hit wonder, but speaking just of this film she was definitely a sight to behold. I usually don't connect well with those tales of adolescences, unless it's American Honey with its journey into the heart of Americana. It's so interesting this has become your girlfriend's favorite movie (or one of), and I don't see it as having enough emotional power for an average viewer, but maybe there's something I'm missing.
3. Moonlight - 6 Recently rewatched. Story was pretty average, but it can lay credit to sometimes capturing Weerasethakul, but I still like him more, I think his stories are generally more substantial and his movies capture more great moments. Moonlight felt lacking in that, and that whole storyline with the caricature bully guy, and then in the diner when they were mellowing out were just lacking for me.
4. Carol - 4.5 post-Far From Heaven Haynes is really disappointing. He kinda sucks sometimes, this is one of the best examples. So artificial feeling. So manipulated and not allowed to naturally unfold as a story.

Blue is the Warmest Color 10. It's vibrant and alive, feels like a statement, Adele might be one of my favourite characters of the century, I could've watch 3 more hours of her life and I wouldn't complain. Even the cinematography does somehing to not be didactic.
Brokeback Mountain 10. I felt in love with it 12 years ago, rewatched it recently and I still amazed by how Lee manage to get away with such a tragic story without portraying the characters as martyrs, especially for the period the movie is told, again for me every single element of the film makes it visceral, you can almost feel it, and marvelous performances all around.
Call Me By Your Name 9, Yeah, I've said much about this one
Carol 8. Same, just reaffirming that I admire how straight forward it is but within the lines feels as part of something bigger and modern, and technical aspects and direction elevates it, but at times feels wrapped in cellophane.
Weekend 7 maybe 8. The strength comes from the frank sense of humor, is very sincere and uncomfortable, that creates the individuality of the characters, I've seen a few other movies try this but are caught in stereotypes. Nice cinematography btw
Moonlight 4. king of hackers

A bit too much of these kinds of movies lately I would say, but eh, whatever. I only saw Blue is the Warmest Color and Moonlight, which I like in that order.
Blue is the Warmest Color feels like an epic of intimacy and growing up. The sex scenes really contextualize the whole thing and choosing to indulge in male gaze was a good choice on the directors part in efforts to normalize homosexual behavior. I really enjoyed every minute of it.
Moonlight kept me invested and there's plenty of pretty visuals and soothing score to make you think the movie is better than it is. I like it just fine but it's full of story tropes and frankly mediocre characters, but there's heart to it. I often almost forgot I saw it but it's pretty solid.

Blue and CMBYN are the modern crowning achievements in the genre, Moonlight is hot on their trail, with Carol it pains me that I couldn't like it more (from the trailer it seemed right up my alley, but I guess it's time to concede that Haynes doesn't work for me) and Brokeback Mountain is a bit of a slog, even though Ledger is great in it. Not seen Weekend.

Blue is sick but i don't think i would like it as much thesedays
Carol has a I-III score so it gets at least a 7 but that's like all it has that interests me
Moonlight is thoroughly uninteresting and gets worse the more i think about it
