A review of every movie that I watch and DVD I accruement.

Currently (re)watching

One flew over a Cuckoo's nest
Sideways
Office Space

Disclaimer : My premise on reviews is that the "judgement factor" should be subtle yet telling, comprising 30%of the actual review itself. The 70% should be articulation and presentation of facts, if these percentages deviate radically, then the reviews are reduced to a 'whim' or an 'insipid composition'.

Also, I believe that reviews are just meant for raking that initial intrest in watching or dismissing a movie. Any attempts to overtly patronize or criticize would undermine the viewer's ability to make his own jusgements.

LV,

When I see a guy who makes crisp comments on cricket, I am more than optimistic that his comments on movies will be as interesting.

Can't wait to dissect your reviews and hopefully, enrich my understanding too :-)
