Movie Criticism

Geez. I just read some really good writing in the form of movie reviews for this weekend’s releases. I mean I was startled by how moved I was from just reading them. Did it make me want to go watch the movies? Hell, yeah, even though one of them was a pan and dismissed the film as another in a long line of bad action flicks.

First up is Manahlo Dargis’s demolition of Wanted, the action flick opening up today. It’s a beautiful takedown. I wish I can write my reviews like that for when I need to pan a film.

Next is Devid Edelstein’s review of Wall-E. Simply amazing. And the movie sounds awesome as well.

Hmm. What to watch this weekend?

“One of them was disguised as a woman, but wasn’t pulling it off. Like, her hair was red, but it was a little too red, y’know? And the other one, the tall, lanky one, his face was so blank and expressionless. He didn’t even seem human. I think he was a mandroid.”
