You’ve arrived in time to read the most poignant movie reviews ever written, penned by the most acclaimed film critics the world has yet to discover.
You’ll realize quickly that we're nothing like the myriad of review sites you’ve visited before. We’re not bedfellows of the Hollywood machine, so our movie reviews are straight-forward and brutally honest. If a movie is terrible, we'll scold it; if a movie is great, we’ll praise it. Direct and impartial – the way movie reviews are meant to be.
And while we’d love to think our opinions are above reproach, we know that is simply not the case. If you don't agree with something we've said, by all means speak your mind. You’ve got an opinion and we’d love to hear it – good or bad.
