This is not the place where any of us is playing a professional reviewers, and most of us have our careers, jobs, families, etc. And yet I dare say so many interesting movies get mentioned here, that if one was to spend his life just following these recommendation - in American, European, Asian, who knows that else movies - one would walk away much enriched. Probably not agreeing with all the recommentations, but certainly much better off than simply visiting his muliplex every Sunday.
I like the fact that after almost forty years of viewing good movies I can still come here and ask for a list of recommendations and get a long one - as was in the case of the Australian films recently. This is not a New Yorker, this is your neighborhood pub, where you meet people you like.
And of course after a while you know whose recommendations you want to trust.
