Why We Charge for Independent Reviews

The volume of independent films and books released every year is enormous. With tens of thousands of projects vying for attention, it simply isn’t possible to review them all.

Our paid Independent Review option ensures that your project receives:
  • Guaranteed screening or reading
  • A professional, objective, industry-standard review
  • Exposure on a platform with nearly 30 years of credibility
  • A marketing and promotional opportunity designed specifically for indie creators

We can’t promise a glowing review, but we can promise a fair one — and a recognition of the hard work and passion it takes to complete an independent project. Every INFLUX review highlights the effort behind the art, offering readers a positive and constructive perspective.
