I miss these two so much... this is when film criticism actually meant something and more than opinions on social media. I truly took their recommendations to heart and fell in love with cinema and the movies as a result of their knowledge and enthusiasm (and love) for the movies!

i recall a lot of critics put FAIR GAME on their worst list of that year. Holidays, was directed by Jodie foster, should have been MUCH better, but Bancroft (who is wonderful is everything and I love her) helps lift the characters

I'm surprised by the very negative review of Powder. I didn't think it was bad. It was an original story. it contained some interesting ideas and special effects. It had tension, and was well acted, I thought. I'm curious, did they hate Superman as well? He was picked on even though he could run faster than a car and score a touch down every time. I did find that a bit odd. Anyway, I found it more plausible that a recluse Albino with scary powers would be more the subject of hate and abuse than a normal looking uber athlete who's a little nerdy.

_Powder_ is a terrible, terrible, _hideous_ movie. one of those garbage pails made by an up-and-coming dickhead directors who knew it was time to make his Oscar-bait Masterpiece. it's one of those movies where you can feel the director / screenwriter totally identifies with the brilliant main character and makes him snide and just a douche to people he considers mentally inferior. it's an AWFUL movie.
