To label beyond good and bad? Yes, I mean, it was my first discovery ages ago when I realized the mentality of the cultural critic, that they measure beyond good and bad. So I had to use the same reasoning if I would address this BBC list. Also, sometimes there are parts of a movie that are good, parts that are bad or at least less good, to the extent that you end up with mixed feelings about it overall, hence my comment for Pan's Labyrinth. Thank you for the positive comment in the end. |
I don't bother with critics, a lot of the movies RT recommends end up being horrible or no where near the greatness the score indicates. Civil war and Guardians of the galaxy are supposed to be near perfect? Give me a break.
I actually gave up on watching movies at one point because I ended up disappointed most of the time. Then a friend of mine recommended a movie called "Closer" and I loved it, and I've been asking him for recommendations ever since.
I, of course, still fall for the hype sometimes and tag along with my friends when they go to the movies. But I never really rely on critics anymore. So yeah, I don't need more labels than "I enjoyed this movie!"
