Critics Are Idiots

Whenever a movie gets rave reviews, it amazes me anyone goes to see the movie. Point and case. Critics slammed Terminator 3. They hated it. They called it weak, plotless and awful. And guess what? It went out and kicked ass in the box office. Sure, maybe it didn’t dominate, but it did really well, and the critics just moved on. So when Freddy Vs. Jason, they said, “Fans will go out to see this because it’s a cult film.”

The art of critiquing movies has gone right down the toilet in recent years. Critics don’t know what’s going on. They are clueless. Things come out of Hollywood that are phenomenal that the critics give no credit.

In our society any idiot who has a journalism degree and a pen thinks he or she is qualified to bash a few movies because it doesn’t fit the mold of what they think is classic. I suppose now the both Bob Hope and Frank Sinatra are dead, we’ll never make everyone happy.

People never compare originality, they always use backwards comparisons where they take a movie like T-3 and put it up against the Maltese Falcon. Except that the movies are from two separate decades and not comparable.

But we must accept this. The more indignant our journalists get, the more jaded the reviews will be. Sooner or later, a critic will put a liberal spin on why “Blade III” is exactly why we need to make Political Correctness a law.
