In Reply to: I haven't yet seen 10 films from this year that I like. posted by Donald on December 20, 2005 at 06:18:42:
...I've always found Ebert to have true enthusiasm for movies. He strikes me as someone who likes to highlight what's good in films rather than trash anything for the sake of appearing superior. I think he's unusually good for a mass-market reviewer.Your comment, on the other hand, strikes me as purposeless cynicism, like you're trying to convince yourself you see flaws in films which lesser minds aren't sharp enough to locate.
