In Reply to: Jesus... best lists by "respected" critics... you are so unsure of yourself? posted by Victor Khomenko on September 8, 2010 at 11:26:30:
haven't seen.
And, with the hundreds of films (actually, thousands) released globally every year, one needs to winnow them down. I look at festival winners and "best of" lists. First, I looked at years past and I tended to agree with the lists though not necessarily in the same order. Sure, a great film may be overlooked by all major critics but how often does that happen? Very, very seldom.
I don't look at films purely for entertainment, most of the time, especially at home. I like something with some artistic content, some quality. I'd rather listen to music or read if I have nothing interesting to view. Netflix ratings are based on the common viewers. I'm not that much of a democrat...........
